    oops! that send me out of my wordpress frame – how do i get the forum to appear within the wordpress frame?

    thanks!

    I did a similar thing not too long ago.

    It is near impossible to actually get phpbb to run _in_ WordPress, but it is easy to fake it.

    All you have to do, is create a new theme for phpbb that looks exactly like your WP theme.

    My example:

    WordPress: http://www.templeofdagon.com/

    phpBB: http://www.templeofdagon.com/forum/

    Im wanting to achieve the below:

    <img src=”http://www.vini.co.uk/uploads/forumpress.jpg”&gt;

    [php]<?php
    /*
    Template Name: Forum
    */
    ?>

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    <div id=”main”>

    <<<< INSERT FORUM INCLUDE?? CODE?? WHAT?? >>>>

    </div>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>
    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    </body>
    </html>
    [/php]

    the above, is a blank template for my wordpress theme, is there anything i could include in there to get the forum looking like the picture?

    an iframe does the job i want, but iframes are rubbish. i dont want the scroll bars and hassle that they bring.

    ive tried an include but all the links and css goes to pot for the forum.

    any ideas on a way to do this? prefiously people have mentioned <div> but this means nothing to me.

    the forum & wp are on the same box/space, (forum = /forum &&& wp = / (root))

    could someone show me an example, or guide me through this? surely its not that difficuly?
