| | I know how to install phpBB boards but I would like to know how to make them appear in the front page of my domain. My domain is www.brokecollegekidz.com (dns hasnt propagated yet)
So for example: I don't want my boards at www.brokecollegekidz.com/phpBB
I want my visitors to see the boards right when they go to www.brokecollegekidz.com
I've never had the need to do this in the past but I would like to do it with this site. Thank you in advance for your help. |

Go to your cpanel, then go to manage redirection, and then put a pemanent redirect of it putting the first block empty and then the second block put: www.brokecollegekidz.com/phpBB

Thanks a lot. That's exactly what I needed to know. Will my visitors' browswers "refresh" when they initially visit my site when the redirect is in effect? Or will they not even notice there is a redirect. I can't try it yet since my site is not yet accessible through my domain.

They will notice it that its redirected when they look at their browser url, and its autoredirect, means it'll immediately brings you to your phpbb page...

Phpbb Mods That You Should Get For Your Phpbb3 Forum
- only for phpBB3.0.x though... (9)
For those of you who are hosted on Trap17 and using phpBB3.0.x you might want to consider adding
some mods... Some mods which I extremely highly recommend to get is: #1 "Anti-Bot Question" mod,
which adds a question like "can you see through glass?" (not actual example, result may vary),
according to many people who have tried the mod, it is REALLY useful at keeping low-medium level
advanced bots at bay, although some extremely complex advanced bots may still get through... I
personally don't have this mod, but I would install it if I have the time to... #2 "Evi...

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone around here has successfully installed Joomla on their

solutions yielded no result, my session save path is still not set, and I can't properly install
