I set up the site a couple of months ago, with two forums.
They stopped working, suspiciously around the time that GoDaddy was announcing "migrations"
As noted, Drupal is connecting with the db.
The forum content is viewable in the "mysite" pages, but not in the forums themselves - the forums have the title and no posts.
Tried reinstalling the forum and advanced forum modules...
I'm pretty sure GoDaddy broke the site, and it is sleazy to charge $150 to attempt to restore it.
Our support staff has responded to your request, details of which are described below:

Support Staff Response
Dear Sir/Madam:Thank you for contacting Hosting Support.
The issue with missing content at www.example.com/forum/3 is not caused by any recent account migrations. Please keep in mind that if and when we perform an account migration, the databases are not affected. Therefore, the content for Drupal would not have been corrupted due to a migration.
Further review of this site shows that you are using search engine friendly URLs. This issue might be caused by using this configuration. However, we are able to view content at www.example.com/drupal/contact and www.example.com/drupal/tracker. This shows that Drupal is connecting to the database and shows that some of the search engine friendly URLs are working.
Unfortunately, because you are using a 3rd party application, we are not able to further review this issue, as we do not troubleshoot 3rd party applications. If you would like for us to restore your hosting account and databases to see if this resolves this issue, we can. A hosting restore will cost $150 to complete. If you choose this option, please reply to this email with the following:
- The last four (4) digits of a payment method on file.
- Permission to charge this payment method for $150.
- Permission to overwrite the current data in your hosting account.
- Date and time you wish for us to restore the content to. Please keep in mind that we can only restore content from within the last 30 days.Please contact us if you have any further issues.
Regards,
Lee J.

If your forum vocabulary gets disassociated, it can cause weird problems. See http://drupal.org/node/90214
I recommend keeping AF off while you troubleshoot. It's not likely related but going down to core forum will remove any confusion and let you see exactly what is going on.
Good luck,
Michelle

that is not the problem
Tried both methods at http://drupal.org/node/90214 (it's a D5 site)
but already had the correct vid for forum in the db
The old forum posts are displayed in the correct categories in the mysite pages, and the vocabularies exist in the forum admin, but none of the old posts appear in the forums
However, the new posts are going in the forums, perhaps we can clone the (few) old posts we want to keep
Thanks for the suggestion!
