Re: How to put forum into the website ?

I don't think you have another option than (I)frame.
Plus, the space you leave for the forum is pretty narrow.
It seems to work but you have to scroll endlessly and there are not even scrollbars.
Problem with that is if you make the frame wider it will most probably destroy the rest of the site layout....

I suggest you get rid of the right column and then you will have space enough to run your forum in a frame.

PS:
It would be easier to do it the other way round and incorporate the rest of your site into punBB. There are some mods helping with this. (miniportal, frontpage f.e.) Haven't tried myself but people seem to be happy the way they work.

The German PunBB Site:
PunBB-forum.de

Well then I can leave my current site and make same site in forum. That way I can make site in forum. When user clicks FORUM it open forum/index.php with new site.. I think I will do that...
