MyBB Community Forums

I have been running a website based on the 1.4 myBB software version.It was converted from SMF last year.

I can see the Portal Settings in the Admin area fine,but no portal itself can be seen.Does it come with the forum software or downloaded separately? I am confused on this.

I am unable to find it and now asking anyone here who can help me find it.

I would like to get it set up as the front page to the forum.

There aren't any links to it on the front end by default; don't know why really, that's how it's always been.

I think Ryan Gordon just made a portal to code something lol.

Thanks for the link,but how do I make it show up for everybody as the front page?

Would it be in the Portal Settings in the ACP?

I am still a beginner in this stuff.

You'd need to add a link to it in the header template; ACP > Templates & Style > Templates > **expand your template set** > Header Templates > header > copy one of the four current toplinks and change the URL to go to portal.php, change the image and the text to show; post the current code here if you're unsure what to add/change.

I have come to here but not sure where to make the changes:

Quote:<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_search}</a></li>

<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/portal.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_portal}</a></li>

Then put an image into your ./images/toplinks/ folder, and change search.gif to the name of the image

Quote:Then put an image into your ./images/toplinks/ folder

I looked around and fail to see it,I am so bad at this apparently.

Was this to replace the myBB logo at the top of the forum page?

I appreciate your patience in this.

Oh sorry, I misread what you asked for, I though you wanted to show a link to it on the front page, not have the portal as the front page.

Ok,

I will work on it.

Thanks for the help.
