I've noticed that the links don't all work accurately.  Example:  this is the "Bug Reports" forum, under the "Site Support"  section.  Clicking on the link for "Site Support" actually takes you back to the Home Page instead of showing you the 2 sections under Site Support - Bug Reports and Comments and Suggestions.

Those are all correct but if they aren't showing I wonder if your office doesn't have some firewall set up that isn't allowing connections to the ip directly. I'll look at rewriting the sections that are directly referring to the ip and we'll see if that helps. Just as a test though, tell which of these images shows up:

1)
2)

Still seeing the problem that the OP brought up - not going to the Site Support forums but the Home Page.

Also, noticed that if a topic runs more than one page, the original post is not posted on any of the following pages at the top of the page like it used to.  That may or may not be necessary, but sometimes can be useful in follow-up posts to the OP.

The top image is the little box with an "x" inside.  The bottom image looks normal.  Sort of two diamonds, one more or less on top of the other.

Whether it's something you did, or my work station figured out the code, the whole site looks normal now.  Thanks for all the help!

Yea, we changed things so that the ip wouldn't be referenced. Glad to hear it is working for you.

Yea, the original problem is going to take some coding so it will probably get handled once I finish porting over the profiles. I'll add looking at showing the OP on each page to the list.
