What am I doing wrong with my board? - 09/11/2004 8:17 AM
Hello Everyone,
My name is Devin and I own a site that I now have installed on the server with UBB Classic 6.7.2 !!
I was told by user name from the support site "Gizmo" about this site which deals in devolopment and creation modifications of these boards using this software. So, that is why I am here. I have a question about what I am doing wrong in creating my new forums on my new board that it does not look in the same way the other UBB's I have seen like the support site and this dev site. In terms of the Catigories and the forums layout.
Kind of hard to explain really. I have tried everything to get this thing to work for me. I dont know what else to try. I have checked and unchecked the box that says "show as collasped" in the catagory settings area. Nothing seems to work, and as I have already said, I can't desribe it in words or explain it what it looks like.
Therefore, even though I have not yet opened this new board of mine to the youth members by adding the link to it in my site menu frame, I will provide a direct link to the board index home page itself as it is on my server.
First, before you look at my board, plese visit my site homepage and read the "about" page to see what my site is about and its mission. This is to protect my sites integrity with all visitors. My site services youth! So, that's why before anyone snap judges me, please read my site before going to this link to the new board which is my new UBB Classic 6.7.2.
Second, take a closer look at how this board in general has its catigory and forum settings with the forums to appear under the catagory with description.
Third, in visiting the URL location on my server for my UBB Board, click on the catagory link any of them. I suggest clicking on the "New Friends Wing" as a start. It's really weird and different than how this board as well as all others I have seen (Btw, I have viewed more than 1,000 UBB Classic Message boards sites)the way they are all set up to have the actual forums names under them with icons to the left. Sorry, its the only way I can explain this what I am going through here chewing my nails trying to figure this thing out!
Any help would be greatly apprecieated. My email address is set to allow any of you to email me via this board. Now, here is the direct link to the url of my new UBB board.
Note: I am still in the process of creating forums. Some catagories will not be vieable to the general public.
My LINK : Edited to remove the link for now. I am still working on this new board and need to keep the new board url more private until the offical open to the gen public. (please refer to the last reply to this thread. The Problem I solved it!)
Additional collaterals: I did not myself install this board on my server. Any of you who have knowlege of url path to the directory cgi-bin may wanto view the link as it is in the address bar of your browser and see if their is an actual directory path for the forum links themselves.
Thanks, in advance for any help!
