Is there a fee to change the name of my board?

There is a one time fee to change the forum's URL (Admin > Upgrades > Change URL)

[dianeevans0603]

How much?

[Scott]

dianeevans0603 - the cost is $9.99 USD.

If this is something you wish to pursue, as a courtesy, I would be willing to make the change for you (no charge).

[dianeevans0603]

Oh bless your heart, yes, I do! See I started it as a board about animals and it seems not too many are interested and they join but talk about everything BUT! I really would like to go with more of a today's living type forum and call it, "Lifestyles Of Today". Oh, this is so sweet of you!

So you would like the new URL to be:    lifestylesoftoday.proboards.com

[dianeevans0603]

Yes, if nobody else has that.
Now will my current members have to rejoin?
What do I need to know about this as far as my members are concerned?

• Your current members will not have to rejoin.  Nothing changes in regards to your membership or the content.
• There will be a 2-week transition period where if anyone types in the old URL it will redirect them to the new one.
• I would also recommend that you do a mass email to the members informing them of the change (Admin > Members > Email Members)
• Also, please note you will need to update the theme banners yourself since you are using an image.

Would you like me to proceed?

[dianeevans0603]

Yes, and let me know when it is complete!

[Scott]

It's done.

[dianeevans0603]

Thank you!
