 Posted: Sat Apr 02, 2005 11:41 pm Post subject: Linking to my website |
 |
|
Is it possible to make my board name a link to my website or put a link on the main page of the board to my website?
The reason I set up the board was to attract more people to the site but as the board is just a link to another site I need a link back. I also wanted the board to add visitors to my counter on my pages but if they bookmark the forum only, then it won't matter how many people go to the forum it won't show up on my visitor counter. Ant suggestions would be gratefully recieved. |

Well heres a temp solution that uses frames. Just create a file such as forums.html and or even create a directory with index.html and then place and edit the following code
| Code: |
<html>
<frameset rows="64,*">
<frame name="header" scrolling="no" noresize target="main" src="header.html">
<frame name="main" src="http://www.easyphpbb.com/youreasyphpbbforumname">
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
|
You will also need to create a header.html to allow to have a menu on top. You can use frames in anyway you want in my example I have the mainmenu on top in header.html and in the middle the forums.
I will look in some possible ways in the future to allow uses to edit the templates |

| Unfortunately I think I don't know enough about boards to understand what i'm doing with them at the moment. Am I supposed to of made a copy of the script of the board originally and put it on my server? as at the moment I just link to the http://easyphpbb board for my site. I set up the above into a forum.html and header.html but as I say I'm not sure what there linking to or changing unless I'm supposed to have a part of the board on my site. Again any help with the basic setup at the start would be gratfully accepted. The actual board is running fine, and we've got a few extra members. |

Ok Here you go code for header.html
| Code: | <html>
<title>Whisky Room.Co.UK</title>
<body bgcolor="#838487" text="#000000" marginheight="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" leftmargin="0">
<p></p>
<p></p>
<center>
<table border=1 width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td colspan="3" bgcolor="#ff00ff">
<center>
<h1><font size="7"><b><a href="http://www.whiskyroom.co.uk">Whisky Room.Co.UK</a></b></font> </h1>
</center>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</html> |
Code for forum.html
| Code: |
<html>
<title>Whisky Room.Co.UK</title>
<frameset rows="64,*">
<frame name="header" scrolling="no" noresize target="main" src="header.html">
<frame name="main" src="http://www.easyphpbb.com/whiskyroom">
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
</html>

Now on your main website replace the link to the forums with forum.html and then your url will be on top of the forums at all times. |

| Sorry tried it all, comes up in IE but not in Firefox! Also if you click on the link it opens up behind the board. Cheers for all the help. I think for now I'll go back to my original setup, but if you come up with any other ideas I'll give them a try. Cheers once again. |
