    Solved Help Needed Regarding Making a Forum

    Post by xMumof3x March 7th 2013, 3:31 pm

    Hello

    I have hunted high and low for a place to create a forum and come across Forumotion. I am wondering if someone could help. I have a name for a mummy forum in mind however have a list of questions and would like to know if someone could possibly help....

    1. Can you fully customise the forum's theme ie but your own banner on the top?

    2. Can you make it so people can register but it takes for a forum administrator to activate it?

    3. How can you create password protected boards? As I'm wanting to create boards for miscarriages and domestic violence (I am a survivor of both and want to help others)

    4. Is the admin panel easy to grasp for people that aren't good with html?

    5. Could I come back here if and when I needed advice?

    I hope someone can help

    Hello,

    Please change the title of your topic, that is related to your question/issue, so that other users will be able to find their question/issue using the search engine.

    1. Yes, you can customise the whole design of your forum.

    2. Yes, this is possible in the users options section.

    3. No, this is not possible. However, restricted forums can be emulated through the use of groups and permissions.

    4. The admin panel requires no knowledge of HTML to use. Everything in there is laid out for ease of use and is very user friendly.

    5. The support forum is always here if you need any help.

    1. ACP >> Display >> Pics Management >> Advance Mode >> Forum Main Logo:

    2. ACP >> Users & Groups >> Users Option >> New accounts activation : []Admin
    (To activate new members, ACP >> Users & Groups >> Inactive users)

    3. Read here: https://help.forumotion.com/t76762-create-password-protected-forum

    4. There's no HTML inside the Admin Panel, or are you talking about creating an HMTL Page?

    5. If you need any help, sure.
