View Full Version : Making the front page go directly to a forum

I currently have a rather small forum - there's only one forum segment to it. Thus, the front page is kind of redundant and unnecessary. Is there a simple way to make the front page simply be the appropriate forum page?

Basically I want forums.example.com to actually point to forums.example.com/forumdisplay.php?f=3 .

I suppose I could do this with mod_rewrite, but if there's an already-provided built-in way in VB I'd rather use that.

You would have to use mod_rewrite or modify the vBulletin files. I suppose you could also use a small plugin to redirect all index.php requests from within the PHP code.

I would probably go with mod_rewrite so you don't have to modify vBulletin at all.
