I am actively considering MyBB software for a ministry to the most unministered demographic today -- single young adults.
Needed is a front page, similar to what you see at www.southbendforum.com, for example. Instead of using the front page for advertizing, it is needed to 1) provide a simple horizontal navigation bar with no more than seven tabs (including "Home", "Forum", "Register", "User Control Panel", "FAQ", and "Members List") and 2) briefly answer the question "Why ?" . . . similar to the "mission statement" of a typical company.
Having never developed a website, I do not know how this can be done. Does MyBB offer a plug-in or some other device to enable formatting such a front page ?
Also, does MyBB offer the option of requiring registration before anyone can enter the forum ?
Thank you in advance for any help.
