[Solved] V1 Imported Content Shows no Links?

Content imported from my V1 forum into V2 shows links as text. Is there a way to fix this?

    Run a couple of mass updates using phpMyAdmin:

    update GDN_Discussion set Format = 'Html';

update GDN_Comment set Format = 'Html';

    They really should be links.

    Look in the GDN_Discussion.Format and GDN_Comment.Format columns to make sure they are Html or whatever. If they are Text then the links won't be formatted.

    They really aren't I swear! ;)

    I checked and they are few rows of html but the vast majority IS text. Is there a way to fix it?
