hey
im having the trickiest time here.
renamed cmps to index.php and vb index to forums.php andit is working great
now what im trying to do is have my actuall forum show up on the index.php, is that done via a module???
tried that but must have got it wrong.
in other words im trying to get my regular forum and cmps all on the index.php so everything is there when you go to pressforum.com

thanks,

eric

Not sure if this still works with vB 3.5, but here's how it was done before:

Hey guys....tried every thing in post that conqsoft sent.
maybe i did something wrong but didnt show up. maybe not able to use in 3.5??
basically i have cmps saved as index.php and vbull and forums.php.

when i do the following step.......
eval('$HTML = "' . fetch_template('FORUMHOME') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);

do i put fetch_template('FORUMS') ????


thanks,

confused

You change it to the exact code that is in the instructions.
eval('$HTML = "' . fetch_template('FORUMHOME') . '";');
print_portal_output($home, $HTML);

brian..
thanks.
tried it again.
maybe there is something wrong when i add a page or something.
drats!!
to make sure, it doesnt matter that my main vb index is called forums.php(where i made discussed changes) and that my index.php is cmps. just making sure.

now that i know it is possible i am happy, just have to figure out.

thanks for help in advance

Choose a Module page. Also make sure that your 'Custom Page Content' module is active on that page.

My brain is shot out trying to figure this thing out.
