UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6.4 - 6.7 Modifications Forum Design Integration Ultimate BB in the index.htm

Ok, so this is a dead horse that I'm reviving, but I had some thougths. Basically, it didn't occur to me to put the forums right up front; that's a great idea, since they are really the main activity on my site anyway.

Thought 1. Of course one could just cut and paste the ubb front-end into index.html. I mean, you would have to lose the info on number of posts, etc (anything that is automatically updated) but the look-and-feel can be preserved without that info. Then, once they click on a forum, they are into ubb proper. Would UBB cough up blood at having the actual Ultimate.cgi front page bypassed?

2. The idea of frames is excellent. Hmm. That way, all the other content continues to be available in other frames. But frames are so scary... Guess I'll be learning more about frames now. But what about using a table? I see that we are right now using a table on this site, and staying in the table as we navigate UBB. Can't this just be applied to the front page as well?

That's really all I had to say and ask. Thanks for the advice. Bye now.
