TCH-Don Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 not much info to go on, just make a page and put a link to your forum on it. If thats not what you want, you will need to explain in more detail and maybe a link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Thomas Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Hi, I think its a homepage you want to put on your webspace to link to your forum, correct? Atleast thats was my impression when you sent me a pm. Here is a link to a tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCH-Don Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Is this the same question that you asked in this post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-RobertM Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 ILLOGICAL, If what you mean is that when users go to www.****** you want them to see a different page then your Forum. you will need to create an index.htm or index.html or and index.php file and place it in your public_html folder. I DO think you Should read THIS posting Prior to making changes. Seems to be the opposite of what was done ? no ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevevan Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 A "homepage" and "phpbb board" are two entirely different things (like the difference between a cat and a dog...the only thing they have in common is that they have 4 legs.) The only thing a "homepage" and "phpbb board" have in common is that they are both found on a website. If it is a homepage you are wanting, that is called index.html. See TCH-RobertM's instructions a few posts up. If it is phpbb, the basics are installed automatically for you. See this link for more information.
