That makes perfect sense Dick.Will be much better to fix the extension. I see Peter has set up a a repo for the custom extensions like that on our gitbox account so once the redirect is removed and someone can get to those we will be in much better shape to handle this kind of problem in the future. If we do need to change things manually it will be great to have the list of pages so the work can be divided up more easily. Regards Keith
