What would you do?

My blog directory script is no longer accepting new submissions. I've tried re-installing the script and uploading previous backups, I'm at the limit of my technical know how.

It's an ancient script, Directory97 Pro. Love the script but it's flaky and one regret I've always had is you don't get a hard link back.

Would you start over with a new script, sell the domain or leave it as is? There are over 1000 blogs listed and it gets SE traffic from Google, Yahoo and Bing.

If you installed a new script could you import the old database? You might need to reformat it for the new database, but it would be worth it.

I did look into that. Way over my head. Like my friend Ana I tend to break scripts, databases......I'm not technically proficient enough to pull that off.

I have this problem too but with php fusion script. i was tried to import the users datebase from php fusion into the wordpress datebase and i fucked up everything.Lucky me , i made the back up before trying this shit

It sounds like a rather simple mySQL table issue. Something, which most likely can be edited, is limiting the value of an auto-incremented piece of data, most likely an ID.
