Apologies for the lack of forum over the weekend.
This is an important note.
We have had to restore our databases from Friday morning.
This means that there will be a few posts etc missing.
Sorry about that but a couple of databases got damaged and couldn't be repaired and we had no choice but to revert to a back up.
It's been a bit of pain over the weekend trying to sort this but hopefully all is well with the world now!
Thanks

Thanks for getting it sorted. My message seemed to concern my computer and went through a lot on google till I sort of realised it could be your end especially as I could open other sites okay.
The jargon that shows the php bb: critical error and the debug mode info is confusing to say the least. Why the message does not say that it is a possible problem with the site you have connected to seems odd to me.
They sort of expect us all to be computer wizards. Well you are obviously are one

The front end of the site (
www.ddk-online.com) was available as was the shop but the forum software was unable to connect to two very important databases as they has corrupted.
The 'Critical Error' message is a bit alarming!
If you ever see something similar again be assured that it's our end and that I'll be on the case.
Thanks
