hi,

thanks for your answer

"2) Look in the docs for info about using extern.php"

However, it's just talk about how to output RSS from the forum PunBB, it doesn't explain how we can import RSS from other sites to forum PunBB

Re: customize PunBB forum

Ohhhh... how to import RSS feeds. I don't think anyone has made a mod or anything for that purpose.

Anyway, can you explain #4 a little more? I'm not sure what you're asking.

Re: customize PunBB forum

hi all,

thank you so much for your answer.

"i can share all the pages that i created as well as the contest form!"

Could you please, share it with me!! Here is my email: heeringqt@yahoo.com

somebody could help me out for the question 3, please!! I've no idea about it.

I would like to explain something:

On Calmscape.com, there is a web radio that is embedded to the browser (http://www.calmscape.com/index.php?opti … p;Itemid=8), the second icon on the left.

When you click on it, it takes you to a separate web page written in javascript with a console that is embedded to the web browser.

This console could perhaps appear on the bottom of the PunBB forum of my website, as people with Internet Explorer browsers will be able to listen to music while talking on the forums. Once a logged member goes to the forum (or lounge), they would hear the web radio.

-->
1) How I can insert the web console into forum.php. For example, the forum page is written in php while the
console is in javascript.
2) How would it look like on forum.php, where would the console be
