I currently trying to design my site to fit within my look and feel of the site. Where do I, in default.asp change the code to reflect this look and feel...is it in one of the include files?
Most of the editing to make a forum blend in with a site is done in inc_top.asp. That's where the <body> tag is located and all pages are started with.
If you, for example, have your site's menu on the left of the window, you could add a new table all around the forums in inc_top.asp and then put the menu in a cell on the left. Leave the cell on the right open and then close the cell and table in inc_footer.asp. I know I'm putting this as if it's really simple, but that's the basic idea of how to add a left-side menu to your forums. For a lot of sites that's enough to get started.
Sometimes it's easy to get a good idea of what you need to do to the tables if you change border=0 to border=1 in the top table in inc_top.asp. Then change it back after you have it figured out.
Thanks Roland....after looking at the code I begin to realize how to truly modify the code. I just had to go through and start looking through all of the includes and how they worked together!!
