Hello,

I've created a new page at MyBB board, using the page manager, now I need to insert some code so I can see one my sub forums in that new page.

So, I have multiple forums and sub forums, but I need to include only one of them in the new page, the issue is I've tried to use the <iframe> function but it does not really auto fit to the page.

any suggestion would be appreciate it.

Thanks
do you want to just show the thread list or do you want a fully functioning subforum (post, reply, subscribe, etc)?

Thanks for your reply, and yes I want to the full version of the sub-form.
any particular reason you want the custom page for a subforum that already exists? any reason you can not just direct link to the forum page?
Here is an example of the Forum design:

Introduction Forum
Forum (1)
Forum (2)
Application Forum
Forum (1)
Forum (2)

I want the Introduction Forum to be displayed in a separate page instead of the home one.
So I created a new page using the page manager, and included the link on the header right beside the Search and Calendar , the link will open a new page with MyBB template, then I have added to this new page iframe code to show the introduction Forum in it, but the overall format was all messed up, so all what I want to do is to be able to show only the intro forum in the new page, does that make sense to you?

Thanks much!
sounds like you are better suited with the MyTabs plugin. Then make Intro a tab, App a tab, etc.
This already exists, take this for example:

http://community.mybb.com/forum-151.html
http://community.mybb.com/forum-124.html

Just alter the "DirectoryIndex" in your htaccess to whichever one you want as the main/default page.

not the same, imho. it works initially but does not keep them separate once you click back through the breadcrumb, etc.
This seems like a hell of a lot of work for very little outcome. With xThreads, you can disable a forum from showing on the forum listing. Then just add the link to the menu.

Thank you so much pavemen, that was exactly what am I looking for.

Thanks again
