Hey,
I have a fresh install of Mybb and am trying to figure out how I can get my forum to have a layout like this website www.lunaticoutpost.com.
What I'm looking for is to have the threads all be under one forum. No categories or sub categories and they display on the front page. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
fyi, I did try and contact the owner of that website to ask how he did it, no response yet....
still searching the net
Add this to .htaccess
DirectoryIndex /forumdisplay.php?fid=X 
(Where X is the forum ID of the forum you want to display)

You'll also need to edit ./member.php, line 1080/1084 for logging in, 1185 for logging out so they direct to that forum too, rather than the usual index.php
you don't happen to know if their is a tutorial on how to do this do you?
I'm not an expert, I'll try and figure it out,
gotta run to work will try figuring this out tonight thanks
There's no tutorial that I know of. It's not that complex though.

Open member.php
On line 1084, find:
"index.php"
Replace with:
"forumdisplay.php?fid=X"

Do the same on line 1185. Replacing X with the forum ID of the forum you're using.
Well I was able to change the member.php file, I still don't understand how to change the .htaccess file... can anyone help out?
I added this to the very top of the .htaccess.txt file
DirectoryIndex /forumdisplay.php?fid=X
put 4 for the X
still doesn't seem to do anything...
trying to get the layout like
godlikeproductions.com or
lunaticoutpost.com
looks like I got it working thanks for all the help
htacess.txt had to be renamed to .htaccess
