Hi Angus,
To delete a forum do I just need to edit the forum.txt (and remove the relevant folder)
Is there an issue with renumbering the forums or does it matter if the forum numbers are not contiguous?

Yes, you can delete the forum folder and remove the reference to it in forums.txt, that's all it takes.
As for renumbering... well, forums are named not numbered, so I'm not sure what you mean? Individual topic numbers will be managed by the script, it doesn't matter if they're sequential or not.

Thanks Angus,
As to the numbering, I was referring to the forum ID that ends with a number

Ah, that's what I meant by the topic number :). As in:
forum.pl/forumhelp/35
for this one, the 35 just represents the file 35.txt within the forumhelp folder on disk; that stores the posts for this topic.
