Active Board

Adding your forum to your site

You can add Active Board to your webpage by either placing a simple link on the page, or including a javascript preview.

The simple link will take users directly to a page at activeboard.com which displays your forum.

The preview will display a number (specified on the style page) of the most recent topics on your forum, with links to those topics and to "more topics". This preview is generated on the fly when your page loads.

You can copy the html needed for either of these options from the "html code" section of your ActiveBoard admin page.

If you are more comfortable with HTML, you might prefer to set up a frameset on your site, and simply use the URL of your forum page at ActiveBoard as the source of your frameset. This would provide you with control over the content that displays around your forum, and the URL that appears in the browser's location bar would be that of your site.
