Hello there, My name is Bardon Keene and recently I downloaded and installed SMF on a home server. However, the reason I came here today was because I created an html Homepage to pop up before the forum. Then a provided link on said HTML page is supposed to take you to the forum homepage. I tried renaming index.php to index1.php while  naming my html homepage as index.html and linking index.html to index1.php. This works to get me to the forum homepage but not to any other pages. So can you help me figure this out? My goal is to make a basic html homepage that comes before the Forum Homepage. Any help at all would be Greatly Appreciated.

Thank you,

             Bardon Keene

Might I suggest installing something like Simple Portal?

I think it'd do exactly what you want. :)

as a note:   You can not rename files in SMF without encountering lots of issues -- the system expects certain filenames. :)
