Hello,

I get a little confuse when you say, "auto redirect".

If I give you a code and you add it to your homepage message, everytime someone visits your forum's index, they will be re-directed to another site.

So, I only have one more suggestion that I think that you would like.

If I am correct, you want a 'hyperlink'.

Code:
<a href="URL">Text Here</url>

Replace these words with the correct information :

URL = link
Text Here = The text of what your link should say

Uhm. It's actually quite simple, but I believe it takes a bit more than that john Wink

Here's a full example for your use on an html page:

Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh"
content="[insert the delay in seconds before the redirect];url=[insert the full url of the target page here]">
</head>

<body>
<center><p>
Please stand by while we redirect you to the <a href="your target url here">Forum Rules</a>.
</p>
<br>
<p>
If you see this message for more than 5 seconds, please click on the link above!
</p></center>

</body>
</html>

That is a standard redirect message you'll find on most professional wesbites. The user should see the following message:

Putting a message at homepage so that it auto-redirects to...? Redire10

Here's an example code with the prompts removed:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh"
content="3;url=http:/help.forumotion.com">
</head>

<body>
<center><p>
Please stand by while we redirect you to the <a href="help.forumotion.com">Forum of the Forums</a>!
</p>
<br>
<p>
If you see this message for more than 5 seconds, please click on the link above!
</p></center>

</body>
</html>

The number "3" in the first part of the code represents the delay in seconds before the user's browser will attempt the redirect. Providing a link below the first line of text will ensure the user has direct access to the target URL in case an error occurs, or their browser is a couch potato and won't move. Wink
