Hello, I am new to x10hosting, and I just want some help with a forum.

I'm sorry if this isn't in the write spot, but I have a phpbb3 forum (http://redsrunescapelab.phpbb3now.com/index.php), and the people are closeing the server, or something, the hosting service down, and I don't wnat to lose it. Someone told me that I could put my forum on here, or make a new phpbb3 forum (from here, the "Download phpBB 3.0.4 (zip), http://www.phpbb.com/downloads/olympus.php)

If someone could please walk me through step by step on how to eather:

1: Get my forum I have now over to here so I don't lose it when the people stop the hosting service.
Or 2: Make a new forum from a phpbb3 css file.

Thank you very much if you could help!

Copy all files off of the server. Go to your SQL server and do a backup of all the tables.

Then, upload all the files to x10 and then upload the sql backup. You may have to go to the administration section of phpbb and change some settings, but it should be OK.

If nothing else, back up the table information, otherwise you will have to redo most everything. If you need more help on this, I would post in your other hosts' forum.
