to set up a forum go to youtr admin panel (www.yourdomain.com/forumpath/admin) and on the left scroll down to Forum admin and click management under that

now create a category you group forums into categories dfhq for example has the News category the general category etc etc.

once the cattegory has been created go back and create a forum.


If you want pm me the url to your forums and if youre willing to give me temp admin status ill set up forums.
