Redirect PHPBB default homepage to wordpress iframe

Several possibilities both via JS or via php.
One via JS can be:
where on phpBB overall_footer.html (or on overall_header.html to redirect before the page load) you’ve add the code of the iframe resizer, just after the starting line
<script type=”text/javascript”>
you could add something like this:

var BIndex = "{BOARD_URL}";
if ( true === window.location.href.indexOf('index.php') > -1 || window.location.href.length == BIndex.length ){
 window.location.replace('http://www.mywebsite.com/wordpressIframe');
}

this will fire only in the case that the current URL contain index.php or the length of the called url length is exactly equal to the length of phpBB template var BOARD_URL, that we can assume can happen only in the case the page is main forum page because any other board url, will have more chars.
The reason is that called url could be:
http://www.mywebsite.com/index.php
OR
http://www.mywebsite.com

One via Php could be in the wild:
open phpBB root file index.php
just after the starting tag
<?php
add the follow:

header("Location: http://www.mywebsite.com/wordpressIframe"); /* Redirect browser */
exit;

Sure you want force this behavior if on board main url?
cheers

p.s
i’m sorry that i often suggest on fly without properly test, but you will understand. I also often re-think to what i’ve do, while doing things of some other kind.

About the above, not consider the php suggestion, because i imagine that the iframe isn’t loaded as needed in this way when after you’ll re-click or try to navigate the phpBB main index when on iframe. The code should be different to achieve the correct result.

Consider instead to use the js code (also modified) wrapped in this way:

<script type="text/javascript">
if (!window.frameElement) {
var BIndex = "{BOARD_URL}";
if ( true === window.location.href.indexOf('index.php') > -1 || window.location.href.length == BIndex.length ){
 window.location.replace('http://www.mywebsite.com/wordpressIframe');
}}
</script>

Put this into your overall_header.html just before the closing </head> tag
recompile phpBB template
cheers
