When I first set up my website, I thought I wanted it to go directly to the forum when the type the web address. Now that everything's up and running and I've added new hacks, etc, I want to add a Frontpage. I would like to have vBadvanced CMPS as my Frontpage but I'm not sure how to do that and will it mess up everything I already have in place. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

simply open frontpage editor and copy and paste moduals or threads directly in the new page .... view what ive done at http://paypalmillionaire.com
ive even added quick links .... page loads are faster and direct links go right into forum ;)

Thanks paypal for the speedy reply. I don't mean to sound ignorant... but how did you add the frontpage & where is the frontpage editor? I really like your site btw.

your current index.php name rename it to forums.php Then in vBulletion options find the setting for homepage script name. change it from index to forums

Upload vbACmps rename their cmps_index.php file to index.php and install the hack like you would any other

I use the frontpage in microsoft Office 2003.

very simple to do. just open frontpage >new web > title first page index
copy and paste Threads > change some backgrounds > add google adsense
to the index page to get you into search engines ... and your good to go. :surprised:

Ive Added Some Quick Links To Shorten The Pages For Faster Loading Times.
