Linking an outside forum on a page

[Victoryoftheppl]

Hi :]

I’m trying to link my newly created forum https://www.irbgamer.com/forum as a page on https://www.irbgamer.com

What I mean is that when someone clicks that “Forum” tab, they are automatically redirected to the forums.

Help plz?

and plz dumb it down. I’m not a coding expert, but if given the major steps, I can figure it out.

Well first off… Good looking site, well done. Secondly your question seems odd. The forum link in your main menu navigation links to your forum. The only problem I see is the forum does not link back to the main site. Kind of hard to go back and fourth. You’re using phpbb3? I’m sure you are. There is a place in the backend of the foruym to add these header links as main navigation for your forum and can link back to your main site. You’ll have to tell me what it is you’re looking for because your site links to the forum like it’s supposed too. [Link removed – this is not an advertising forum.]

Thx on the site. :] You’re saying the page on my site links to my forum O_O…We were just having problems with that. I was trying to administrate 3 others (they help build the site) and it linked to the website, . As for the host its hostfire.

I think you mean FireHost? Just make sure you link up registration between the two sites. Your main site & the forum. Also make sure you get the forum to link back to your main site using main menu navigation. It helps so much and won;t frustrate your visitors. Also linkup FB connect & TW connect too.

No its def hostfire.net :] Thats what I’m trying to do…I see everyone is recommending WP-United but I’m stuck on how to add this mod to phpBB. As for the rest, I’m working on that now.

WP united can be a mega PITASS. Are you trying to fit the forum inside your header/footer to have a seamless integration. Meaning the forum looks just like your main site but in between the header & footer is the forum script? If you need help let me know. I’ve worked with it many times, hated it but it works.

Pleaseeeeeeee help. I’m on skype right now. Name is same as this. At the moment though, the forum is not allowing me to access the admin panel. O_o won’t keep me logged in and says I don’t have access.
