 www.filmandgamecomposers.com Hi guys, I havent made a website before, but used phpbb3 to make this forum. I'm fairly happy with it so far, and have about 74 members since about 1 or 2 weeks ago when I made it. I know the site name is a bit long, and was thinking on shortening it (FAG.com doesnt really work though) www.filmandgamecomposers.com Last edited by musicformedia; 21-04-2008 at 04:01 PM.         |

| what about filmandgame.com All the site is at the moment is phpbb3. Look into adding some portal system to allow you to add more content and a more user friendly navigational method. I used integramod for my phpbb2 site, PaintBaller.ie - The Home of Paintball in Ireland

| Ya it is fairly easy once you have not installed any mods on your forum or changed your database much. Generally, follow the instructions step by step and you will be fine. I am not away of phpbb3 portals though. There is one irish developed one, can't remember the name of it now. |

| also - phpbb portal say its for use with phpbb olympus - I presume that it will just work with a normal phpbb3 board? what does it allow you to do anyway? I see on your board you have like a calender, and link to other parts of the website on the left - is it basically that it allow you to build a website and stick the forum into it? |

| olympus is the code name for phpbb3 I think, so it should be ok. Essentially, www.integramod.com is what I used (highly recommended) and it allows one with limited html knowledge to build a large, feature rich website around their forum system. I can add extra pages such as: The Paintball Map Barrage Paintball, Pudden Hill Activity Center, Ashborune If you register you can see even more stuff such as a shout box, polls on the front page etc. |

| cool thanks. and does it use your current style, or do you have to reinstall your style once you've installed the portal, or do you have to use a "portal-specific" mod once its installed? |

| It will usually adapt your current template. However if it comes with its own templates in the template folder, it might have a different default. |
Linear Mode
