Hi,
Im in the process of getting my site together. currently have a message board with another company and its been more of a hair pulling session
Try over and over to log in pages disappearing etc. I was wondering if it is possible to add the message board to one of my links that are listed at the top of my site ie-about me, chick links etc. could I make the message board a part of this, and how to do it. I am new to wordpress, but I have been blogging for a while. Thanks for the help…

Sorry I am not sure if I follow you. Are yiou asking me how to out a link on your site to an external forum? If so you need to learn how to construct an 'a' tag. But it also depends where you want to put it and how your theme works. It's not a question that can really be answered that easily.

I am wanting to make it a part of my wordpress “pages” link. I have for example a link called “about me”. Can I make the message board part of a tab like that?

you can make the pages stuff show a link to your forum if thats what you are asking… simple press forum is all generated dynamically on a wordpress page, so if you page nav links are generated automatically, it should pick it up… if your page nav links are hand generated, you will have to manually do it as Andy indicated…
a link to your site might prove helpful…

Are you wanting to add a link to the top header navigation? to go along with “home”, “about”, “lupus talk bits”, and “chronic chick linkks”??
If so, you need to take a look at your header.php file (good be others, but this is the usual place) and see how those are generated… my guess is that you will see a
div id=”navi”
ul id=”na”
(note, I left out the < >)
you will then need to see how its generating the li links…

THey all have the <> marks.
<div id=”navi”>
<ul id=”nav”>
<li class=”page_item”><a href=”<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/” title=”Home”>Home</a></li>
<?php $pages = wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&title_li=&echo=0');
print_r($pages);
?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Not sure if this the info you wanted?

yes, it is… though that print_r is odd… its a debug statement…
have you created a page for the forum yet? it should show up automatically unless you made it a subpage under another page… if thats the case, it wont show cause depth is 1…
can you give me a link to your forum?

also, the echo=0 is odd… normally is 1… but then not sure how your other links up there are generated…
sent you an email…. might be best to respond to that and we will set you up… of course, I assume you have simple press forum installed…
