I have a fresh install of phpbb3 right now, and was hoping to be able to put some sort of announcement box at the top, similar to the one found here:
http://alphabet-city.com/phpBB3/index.phpAlso, I was hoping there was an easy way to change urls.
Basically, I had a site at
http://www.mysite1.com, and have made a new one at
http://www.subsite.mysite1.comAny way to have the subsite show when someone types the main url? Thanks in advance!

Use this .htaccess in the root folder of the site you want to redirect, change the urls to where you want them to go.
- Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymlinksRewriteEngine onrewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]rewriterule ^(.*)$ [url=http]http://www.domain.com/$1[/url] [r=301,nc]

I tried this, but it doesn't seem to work?
There's a htaccess file already in the root. do i edit this, replace it or have both?

what is in the current root .htaccess?
not the phpbb root, but the public html root.
are you using IM3, Stargate Portal, or just a virgin phpbb3.x?

Thank you, I got redirect working. Is there any way to add a table/box in my header like that site?

Hi Ly. Glad to hear you got that redirect to work. I'm wondering if that is built into the template or if that is a mod. If it is a mod and we can find it, I can fix it up for you I'm sure if you can not.
On another note, how is the other 2 sites running these days?

It's not built into the template, I don't think, because that site offers different styles to use and that table/announcement box is on all of them.
I did look at one mod that's supposed to add an announcement box, but it doesn't have 3 sections like that one. To me, it looks a lot like a table.
And thanks, the HP one is doing great! The other one I'm just currently revamping, trying phpbb3 for the first time!

upload the two included files.
if you have additional styles, determine if they are based off of subsilver2 or prosilver and add the correct file to them.
open root/styles/prosilver/template/index_body.html
find
- Code: Select all
<INCLUDE>
after, add
- Code: Select all
<INCLUDE>
open root/styles/subsilver2/template/index_body.html
find
- Code: Select all
<INCLUDE>
after, add
- Code: Select all
<INCLUDE>
edit announcement.html with your content
