Was just wondering as I just got a domain name officially is it required that if I switch my homepage to another page other then the forum that I still have to link to forumotion in the forum? Such as. I would still be linking to forumotion, just on my main page though. Is that alright? Is there any special way I should do this, or should I simply just link back to forumotion? Very Happy If this question is confusing I can rephrase it.

If your asking if you have to have something linking your site to Forumotion, Yes you do.

That's not what i'm asking. I'm asking if I still have to link on the forum if i'm linking on my new homepage. In otherwords, the forum will be a part of the website but it won't be my main page. I am required to link on my main homepage so i'll still be linking to forumotion, I was just curious if that means that I still have to keep the links on the forum in-tact.

I am told I have to link to forumotion on my homepage(which will be switched to something else other then the forum.). By doing so, i'm linking to forumotion. Thus i'm curious, does that mean I still have to link to them in my forum as well?(those little links at the bottom of all forumotion forums.)

Yes you have to have a link to Forumotion.com on your homepage and Yes you still have to link to them in your forum as well.

Yes to both Razz

It's in their TOS (Terms of Service), if you don't link back to them, they could delete your forum entirely.

EDIT: Basically, you just need to make sure that there is a footer link to forumotion.com on every page, and phBB also.

I know that, I just didn't realize it's required on every page, =/

I think you're incorrect, though.

If you check yes, you have to insert a link to forumotion.com

This is what it says if I want to make an HTML page my homepage. What would be the point of saying this if you're in fact required to link all your pages to forumotion? One should be enough, anyways.
