hosted forums / subforums

[byronmhome]

Is it possible to host multiple forums? For example i run http://www.totalpilot.com and i host several pages for sites from Aviation simulation to homebuilt aircraft.

I would like http://sim.totalpilot.com to be able to just hit the simulation forums/subforums and http://homebuilt.totalpilot.com to do the same.

I can send them to the forum/subforum links, but it still shows the root forum and they get sent back to the main page when clicking the root links, and i was wondering if there is a way to have i guess multiple root forums configrued for us "multi sites" websites.

thanks for any help

Well, you could cloak the URL so it stays the same on those hosted sites or you could do it with invisible frames (easiest way). The frames will not show to your users, but it'll result in them having their hosted site URL in the address bar.

Additionally, you could use vB's co-branding feature to give each site a custom look. Just link to the different style sets for each hosted site.

You can have each forum use a separate style, then you can just hardcode all the links into the forumhome and forum display templates for each forum.

Use conditionals in your templates to only show forums in forumhome depending on the referring subdomain.
