 * under WPBB tools I get the following:
 * Warning: require_once(php/admin/wpbb-admin-tools.php) [function.require-once]:
   failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/05/9932505/
   html/wp-content/plugins/wp-bulletin-board/wp-bb.php on line 767
 * Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘php/
   admin/wpbb-admin-tools.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5_3/lib/php’) in /
   home/content/05/9932505/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-bulletin-board/wp-bb.php on
   line 767
 * I deactivated the smfwp plugin because we don’t need it anymore. so that resolved
   that, but the other errors are a bit of an issue.

 * Sorry about that. When I updated the plugin it didn’t include the new files again,
   will remember that for the next update. I’ve removed error reporting from wp-
   bb.php which is reponsible for displaying those warnings from other plugins but
   yes there were files missing from WPBB too. If you can download the plugin again
   and overwrite the files that’ll fix it for you but let me know if you can’t. 
   I wouldn’t reinstall unless you don’t mind losing any data – but you can overwrite
   the files manually.
 * Thanks again
