Creating Forum Rules Using Board GuidelinesWRITTEN BY: DAN
What you need to know: Nothing
What am I setting up here? Rules that everyone can follow
Step One: Go to your
Forum , if your not in it already. Go ahead and log on onto the
ADMIN CP.
Step Two: Next look to the left and down until you see
System Settings. Now go down and click on
Board Guidelines.
Step Three: The Board Guidelines/Rules window (Fig. 1) should be the window you get once you click
Board Guidelines.
Step Four: Number 1 - If you check YES the link will appear next to the Portal.
Number 2 - This is the name for your rules. (I.E The Forum's Rules). If you do not enter anything in Number 2, even if Number 1 is checked YES the link
WILL NOT APPEAR! So add a title. Number 3 - This is where the rules are stated. HTML Codes such as <TABLE>, <A HREF="http://www.mysite.com>, etc. Basiclly the codes that are put between a
<BODY> Tag.
Step Five: After you have filled out everything, and check the
Show link in header to guidelines? Box, to yes. Your link should be beside the Portal.
