Problems since moving server

[laddo]

Hi guys, hope this is the right place to post this.

We moved our forums to a new server recently and have had HUGE problems ever since. Namely:

- ALL search functions are broken (general, advanced search, what's new, user posts etc etc)

- custom avatars do not load (despite being located on the new server), and newly uploaded avatars dont work either. Only avatars in library display.

- FF users having problems with quick reply (needing to click twice to submit)

- all copied (eg pasted from external website) characters (? " ' etc) display incorrectly

- newly created forums do not show up, only within admin section, when attempting to view via the admin panel, get the following message:

you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I have tried rebuilding search index, all the maintenance options and googled these problems but cannot find anything. Ive installed a mod to replace characters but that hasn't fixed that problem either.

Massively appreciate any help with this.

Thanks.
