Convert subweb to folder -- does this make sense?

[Stan Hilliard]

I have an FP forum in a subweb with lots of posts that I want to be
browsable and searchable -- but no new posts. My host provider made
the following suggestion. Is it practical:

"Since the forum just seems to be a number of html files, if you
converted them into a folder, a regular frontpage search form should
work to search through the articles."

However you will not longer be able to manage it separately from the root web, so if you publish
your local copy to the live/remote server, you will overwrite the content.

Correct
- don't convert it to a folder
- just open the subweb online in FP and delete the Post/Reply links (in the include header pages)

It is done.
