Hi everyone, upgraded to 4.2 this morning and now I have a problem

I use wordpress as my forum front page (www.potters-online.co.uk/wordpress) but since upgrading when people navigate to the domain (www.potters-online.co.uk) they go straight to the forum, bypassing the front page.

Can anyone tell me how I get things back to normal

Thanks in advance

Use your .htaccess to point it to where you want it to go. Or, set the default tab to be to your wordpress site.

Hi Lynne, thanks for the reply.

Could you possibly point me int the right direction I don't really get the htaccess file. I use VBBSEO so it confuses me slightly

google shows me this tutorial on doing redirects using htaccess:
