    Default A Forum Question Probably Blindingly Obvious to Everyone Else!

    Hi Everyone,

    I have searched this forum and found many questions about forums on zencart sites but nothing that answers the question I have:

    How do I get a forum on my site?

    It's probably staring me in the face but I have no idea!

    Cheers,

    Gary

    The only one that has rudimentary integration is phpbb(2)
    any other and you have to either require seperate accounts for login and/or hard code the link

    Hi,

    I am using phpBB(v2.0.21) and clicking 'create forum' in cpanel. It gives the address of my forum as:

    http://paganbound.com/forum

    When I go to that address it says 'Page not found'.

    Any ideas what's wrong?

    Thanks again.

    Clear your local cache - as your forum loads for me

    Ah okay, thanks for that, I'm getting there!

    is there an easy way to get the forum to open on the main website so that the headings, sideboxes and footers are still visible whilst users are in the forum?

    Thanks (again!)

    If you mean in Zen Cart - then no easy way and you can look at this site and select the Home at the top and it is Zen Cart while this forum is vBulletin.

    You just skin them so the look similar
