Hey everyone,

I was wondering this is probably a stupid question, but I'm new to all this so forgive me. I have recently had a portal installed on my forum, but if you simply want to get to the forum you have to type in www.silent-imperfection.net/forum.php?

How do I get it so you just have to type www.silent-imperfection.net/forum cuz when I try this now, it just cannot find page. Is this because I need to create a file in my smart ftp called forum and then drag some vbulletin files inside there, if so? which ones do I move?

Usualy the second link works because the forum section stands for the folder name.

Try this.

Create a folder called forum , inside this place a file that is called index.html and inside this file put the following contents




<script>
//Browser redirect Script- ? Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com)
//For full source code, 100's more DHTML scripts, and Terms Of Use,
//visit dynamicdrive.com
var browser_type=navigator.appName
var browser_version=parseInt(navigator.appVersion)
//if NS 6
if (browser_type=="Netscape"&&browser_version>=5)
window.location.replace("http://www.silent-imperfection.net/forum.php")
//if IE 4+
else if (browser_type=="Microsoft Internet Explorer"&&browser_version>=4)
window.location.replace("http://www.silent-imperfection.net/forum.php")
//if NS4+
else if (browser_type=="Netscape"&&browser_version>=4)
window.location.replace("http://www.silent-imperfection.net/forum.php")
//Default goto page (NOT NS 4+ and NOT IE 4+)
else
window.location="http://www.silent-imperfection.net/forum.php"
</script>


Its a re-direct script i use.

Once you done that, if people go to

www.silent-imperfection.net/forum (http://www.silent-imperfection.net/forum) it should redirect them to your forums. good luck
