MyBB Community Forums

Yes, I know there are already a number of portal questions, but mine is a bit different.

My installation of MyBB is at a /forum extension, which means the default setting is that the portal is accessible at http://www.mysite.com/forum/portal, correct? But what I intend to do is to have my portal not at /forum or as forum index, but http://www.mysite.com.

How do I do that?

heloo there,

to make ur portal as index there are several ways

1- is to rename the index.php to somthing.php and portal.php to index.php.

2- change the default document priority of folders by editing your .htaccess file


3- Portal Redirect v1.0.1 it's a mod that Redirects users to the portal the first time they visit every day.


many regards

No.
That's wrong.
He doesn't want to make http://hiswebsite.com/forum/index.php display http://hiswebsite.com/forum/portal.php
He wants to make http://hiswebsite.com/ display forums' portal.

To do that, follow the steps below.
--------------------------------------
1. Open WordPad or some other editor.
2. Write this inside.

<?php
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" ); 
Header( "Location: http://yoursite.com/forum/portal.php" );
?>

3. Change yoursite.com to Your domain/subdomain.
4. Save as "index.php" - no quotes.
5. Upload to your root folder.

And that's it.
