Albus Dumbledore 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2006 i do not quite understand what you mean...what i got from this post was you want to know if you can host forums on the webhosting you would get from Xisto.is that is the question, the answer would most definatly be yes.there are a few ways you can put forums on your websiteA - There is somthing called fantastico in the Cpanel and it has 3 or so forums you can install my clicking a button and entering a small amount of informationB - you can find a forum that you are capible of downloading by yourself, for example PHPBB or MyBB or SMS are a few downloadable forums.when you download the forums you would upload them to your webhosting account and set them up, and there should be a tutorial on how to do that within the files that you downloadedgood luck with your clan website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(need help with html) but i think it looks good so far. considering i have no idea what im doing... so that is why i ask here for help. from the guys taht can help. thanks for the quick reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bkag 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2006 What you can do is have a php based forum and use a portal, they usuly dont come with the forum but is a mod/hack you can add on, a portal looks somthing like this (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/) as you can see on the right there is a navigatiion bar which you can put links to anything in.OrYou can code it so that you create a navigation bar in html and then put the whole php based forum next to it. I cant realy exokain that well but basicaly if you are using frontpage (i know you are using dreamweaver but i have never had any experience with it) you would drag a cell and then enter the html code link to your forum. Im not sure if that makes sence, sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
