lee246 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Hi, I have just installed a feedback and discussion forum for customers to my store, however I do not know how to put a link to it from my index page. I would like a link in the information box. my store is located at www.justonlineshop.com/shop and my forum is located at www.justonlineshop.com/forum. Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance.

Guest Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 hello lee, seems like the phpbb forum is outside your catalog. Did you install the osc contribution to interate it or you did it straight from phpbb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushindo Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 A quick way to do this is one of two methods I would use: METHOD 1: Open /includes/boxes/information.php Look for this: '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' . And change to this: '<a href="www.justonlineshop.com/forum">Online Forum</a><br>' . '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' . Or this method may work as well if you want your forums to rank better so the search engine doesn't see it as leaving your site and re-entering it: '<a href="../forum">Online Forum</a><br>' . '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' . Hope this helps.

lee246 Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Hi Mark, I installed the forum using the fantastico cpanel on my server. Would it be moe beneficial to have it integrated into the site or would it work out the same the way it is? Hi Bruce, Thanks for the advice, I have now done it.
