Forum Jumps / Aliases

[Flipsidejones]

Ok.. what I am looking for is a third type of forum.. rather than just a category, or a postable forum, I want a link.

I want to be able to create a forum, name it, give it a description, and say "alias of forum id 5 in this location"

This would mean that i could have:

forum > technology > computer > software > games

be an alias to

forum > entertainment > games > computer games

On display, it would use the name and description given to the alias if available, otherwise copy those from the other forum. The #of posts and last post and such would obviously have to be from the real forum record. And the entery url would just jump to the proper forum.

I am not sure where to begin on this, but am willing to work as a team with someone to make it happen.
