The file must be call "portal.php"

The version 1.0.0 of cBB Portal not prepared to do this, in the next version I implemented it.

In the phpBB forum I explained how you could do, although I have not been able to prove

Mr. dear admin.
it is very important for me to do this. i have a forum with pagerank 4 and need to a portal in main address. i like this portal but i couldnt did it.
plz help me and try and learn me how is possible?

[IvanPF]

I feel not having responded sooner.
I can not try on localhost because right now I am with the design of the next version, which will make this task much easier.

I tried on a free hosting the changes I mentioned and apparently works well
The portal is in http://canidev.hostoi.com/portal.php and the forum is in http://canidev.hostoi.com/board/

Exactly, what error gives you?

Edited: I have seen a bug in the redirect from the index, try to test disabling the portal as home page on ACP >> Portal

yes its work. i had a mistake.

a question

my forum is this address

example.com/forum/

this address working http://www.zohall.com/portal.php but i need change name portal.php to index.php

http://www.zohall.com/portal.php working but http://www.zohall.com/index.php not working.

why?

[IvanPF]

In the version 1.0.0 of cBB Portal is difficult to change the name to index.php because it is not ready for that and involves many changes.

What you can do is use the ".htaccess" file to put it as your default page when enter in http://www.zohall.com

You only need upload one file, with the name ".htaccess" in the portal.php directory with this content:

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.html

This only runs in apache servers
