is this possible?
I have a client that has the following desire, and I'm trying to figure out how to accomplish. Would really like to get it done in VBa...
http://www.thedomain.com
- Would show the entire VBa site... (All forums, etc.)
http://www.thedomain1.com
(redirect to www.thedomain.com/domain1_index.php)
- Would show the VBa site, but just the domain1 forums, etc. on the home page.
http://www.thedomain2.com
(redirect to www.thedomain.com/domain2_index.php)
- Would show the VBa site, but just the domain2 forums, etc. on the home page.

As far as I know that's not really possible because you'd run into issues with cookies.

Ok, I won't worry about the cookies... will just use the main site for the cookies.
The http://www.thedomain1.com will JUST redirect to www.thedomain.com/domain1_index.php. (ie. not really another site) just showing an index page with just news from forums that go with that rediected domain...
ie.
Forum Category - Main
Forum Category - Domain 1 (topic#1)
Forum Category - Domain 2 (topic #2)
I would show the VBa site, but just the domain1 forums, etc. on the home page.
Does that make more sense?

Shouldn't be a problem then. You'll just need to make a copy of the cmps_index.php file, then at the top, right after the <?php tag, add this code:
define('VBA_PAGE', 'page_name_here');
Then create different pages in the cmps and replace page_name_here in the above line to reflect the identifier you used on that page.

That sounds pretty easy...
How would I then assign different forums to be shown on that new page I create? Right now I use the AdminCP to control which forums are shown on the index page...
How do I use this to define different forums on each of these new pages I'm creating above...
Thanks again for the fast replies...

When you create a new page you will be able to change each option on that page and set it to pull news and such from a different forum.

Wow, that's very simple...
Thanks again.
