How to link phpbb3 to Website Forum Tab

Wayne · 06:13 AM

I have uploaded and installed phpBB3 and I have had a play with it so I have a little bit of an idea how to get around in it. What I want is to be able to do is go direct to my forum page when I click on the Forum menu tab on my website. Is that possible? Please help.

My Website address is

www.dietingandhealth.com.au

change this line:

Code:

<li><a href="1_4_Forum.html">Forum</a></li>

to this:

Code:

<li><a href="phpBB3/index.php">Forum</a></li>

I have looked in the "Edit HTML Source" on the Layout Design Page (Edit Template) and the Forum Page and I can not find a line like that. Here is a copy of the code from Edit Template and after that is the code from the Forum Page. I hope this may help.

You can´t edit the nav tabs that link to the subpages. The code that would need editing doesn´t show up in the template and therefore can´t be edited. As i said before, your probably best shot is either putting a link to your forum on the page or use some "regular" template that can be fully edited (though that required html knowledge)
