Hi,

I have placed the forum section in a separate directory folder and my main website in the main web hosting folder. The trouble is, is that my main website uses a template that relies on seperate smarty and bootstrap files too.

So basically i have two different websites in two different directories and i'm trying to make them look like each other and it seems like a lot of work.

I noticed that you have an option to add individual pages to your forum. How can i make a page which is named index, so when you come to my website it goes to that page instead of the main category page?

Thanks for your help, Richard

From the backend create new page , you will get your page url there.

You need to set that page url as the homepage.
To do that, open routes.php file and replace

dispatch_get('/', function() {

    global $installed;
    if (!$installed) {

        $url = str_replace("index.php?u=/", "", RURI);
        header("Location: " . $url . "install/index.php");
    }

    $forum = new \Controller\forum();
    $forum->topics(1);
    CODOF\Smarty\Layout::load($forum->view, $forum->css_files, $forum->js_files);
});

with

dispatch_get('/', function() {

    global $installed;
    if (!$installed) {

        $url = str_replace("index.php?u=/", "", RURI);
        header("Location: " . $url . "install/index.php");
    }

   header("Location: YOUR_PAGE_URL_HERE");
});
