<font color="Magenta">Hi

I have installed but it is not showing in Admin Options to ticket YES

Then how it will work?

URGENT HELP will be needed.

Is this helps?

I have TV shows latest spoiler Sub-forum with each TV show one Thread. But I don't want to update every day but want to redirect to other site of mine.

How it will work in google search? will user directly go to my second site? but it will show the links of first site in Google? in that case I will loose my first site views right? </font>
