Setting Up TinyPortal and SMF

[sambooka]

OK Guyz,

I am wanting to increase my community awareness, I am already using SMF and my url points to www.site.com/forums

I am working on a dev site and would like to add TinyPortal.

My question is this, "How should I install this for maximum community potential?"

I am thinking that if you go to www.site.com I would like it to pull up TinyPortal/SMF instead of having to go to another link to get to the forums. AN example is http://www.dzinerstudio.com/ how do they set theirs up!?

What do you guyz think of that!??  Am I on the right track?  Will my TP/SMF front page rate me higher in search engines?

Please let me know, I would like to do this upgrade tonight.

Thanks soooo much!

Well, no responses

Can anybody tell me what the ultimate setup would be? For a community?  Using TP and SMF?

My current forum points to www.site.com/forums .. will I need to place a pointer in there to point to the root directory? Is there a page/pointer that will take the original links to forum topics and point them to another location on the forum, such as the root area?

Thanks

hmmm....

i think they made smf in the main directory.

inside of a www.site.com/forum for example.

If you want it the way that other site had it, then I would suggest that you install smf in the root directory and then install TP
