Help - All forum content will not show after trying to delete just a few threads

:o Help please. I run a forum but I know nothing about how it was set up or about programming. I’m not technical at all. Some else one set it up for me. Today I tried to delete some particular parts - some old threads. When I did this I got an error message. Now if anyone logs in, admin or member, they can see the forum and thread titles but get the following error message if they try to click onto any of the threads - this is the same for all threads, not just the ones I tried to delete. Please help me. I dont know if I have given you the information you need to help but if you do need anything else from me, please explain in simple terms as I am really not technical.
Thank you so much

You need to go into phpMyAdmin and run the following:

REPAIR TABLE phpbb_posts;

You should be able to get to phpMyAdmin via cPanel, or whatever control panel your host is using. I’m not overly familiar with phpbb but I don’t think you’ll be able to repair the table from phpbb itself.
