I have had a forum called creativeartsforum. I wanted to take it in another direction with doing a wide variety of things so I needed to change the name of the forum. I used Mail Art International when I went into the forum set area it changed everything but the link title.
How do I get my link title to change to the new name?

Also I changed my e mail address as I have the same one I use here on this site but it hasn't changed on my forum. I don't get an email to confirm the change.

I have members getting email from the new site name but it says that site does not exsist.And that the message came from: and it give the link with the old site name. And to contact the admin at which is my old email address and not my new one.

So as you can see I need some guidance to get that fixed. People will be trying to email me at an email I don't have anymore and can't click the link to get onto the site with the new name.

Okay I'm not sure what is going on, I went to shut down the forum, in fear I would have to re-[enter everything and my default link page came up with everything still there.

That was strange. But thank god it's still there.

Just in case you were taking care of the forum link, it didn't change yet it still says creativeartsforum which was suppose to be getting changed to mailartinternational.

I'm just going to go back for a third look make sure it's still there again.
Big scare that was........

I just checked my site and the link name still hasn't changed.
Do I need to go into admin of the site now and change it or do you still have to make the change.

Thank You1 :)

Another question:
Is there a way I can email ALL the members of my site with just writing one message? I see in the admin. there is something called Email list but I don't see anything for contacting all members.

Login as the superadmin (creativeartsforum) on your forum and you will see it on the right of this page - You must be logged in to see this link.

I will have to change that superadmin account to mailartinternational sometime in the future. If you find that you cannot login as creativeartsforum then just login as mailartinternational. Password will be unchanged.
