    Hey all, Im gonna try keep this simple. Im pretty new to the wordpress & SMF and was wondering if I can get my SMF forum page to basically be actual content of a page on my wordpress theme.

    For example when I make a nav button called 'Forum' it will link the viewer to the forum but so its still the same wordpress theme/site with the header, nav bar and all that like on my friends page here: http://www.elvissalic.com Notice how even on the forum you have the same nav bar options and theme as you would on any other page?

    because at the moment it leads to a totally different page & theme and the only way back to the main site is to manually type it into the address bar.

    Im aware that this could be a really simple or hard process but i would be very happy with any help.

    I think what I need to know is where do I install it?

    because its just a totally seperate page at the moment.

    I'm with ya, Elliott.
    From what I've read, I think a lot of other people are, too. Apparently there's no bridge that does that.
    As a result, I've decided to ad a link mod that's available on SMF's site to my SMF forum, and to use that to link back to my WP page. I guess I'll go with a SMF theme that's close enough to my WP theme to at least not clash as much as they do now.
    Somebody who knows a lot more about it than I do could make a fat stack by creating a theme bridge and selling it.
