@Maha Nadarasa,
I created a thread for this exact reason. I'll update the instructions, if I learn more.

Yes. Anything in the old forum after March 10th is gone. But they are migrating the old data over in stages. I have forgotten the exact time line but they posted it over at the Swamp (good luck finding it!).

Received confirmation that all the data up to April 1st has been saved and it will be added to the new forum. How long it will take? I do not know.

That's an interesting decision. The signal to noise ratio from March 10th - April 1st was pretty darn low in that time period. It was mostly just people whining about the platform and the demise of the old forum.
Thanks for setting the record straight, though.

The last SWPUC took place in that timeframe.

I have no idea how well this works, but it exists.

Good point! Well worth preserving, at least that thread!

I tried that. The magical link button wasn't there for me.

It's funny that this site provides support to SW software and other website (3DSwym)
