Topic: Some mod help (i think)

Hi,

I just found a website using punbb, and figured i want to use that on my website, so i downloaded it and did setup it.
But it wasnt exactly how i wanted it.

www.nilbog.se is the site i looked at, and i was wondering what kind of mods i need to get my site looking like that?

What i want is a banner at top, news on the front page, a section like they have with movies, but i will be using pictures(signature banners) and a forum.

Re: Some mod help (i think)

You really should visit Punres as this is the sort of thing they do.

The style will (most likely) be there, then it's just a matter of following the wiki for the portal. A lot of punBB involves doing-it-yourself, so keep in mind that your forum won't look like that if you're not willing to work for it.

Otherwise just install PunFrontpage, and modify that. That way, it's already mostly done.

Banner is simply adding a banner to main.tpl instead of name/description
News would be the News Generator plugin or maybe an SQL query directly from the database
The section is probably just a section manually added into a new index page, like the news.
And the forum:
rename index.php to forum.php
Find all references to index.php and change them to forum.php
