What "thing" exactly you want to upload?

The link you posted uses SimplePortal, so if it is your site you can change the blocks from the admin panel (admin > simpleportal > blocks), when you create it you can specify in the "Display options" section, "Show block on" and select "portal".

i want it like tz.no1host.us or tz.no1host.us/home.html

If you want the first you have to learn flash.
If you want the second you can put up a simple html page adding what you need (you can even check the code the site you linked is using to have an idea of how to do it).

i want second one and i have uploaded my html but what should i do to show it at og-clan.neq3.com not on og-clan.neq3.com/myhtml.html

You're not making much sense, [OG]. You still haven't said what "this thing" is, that you want.

I have made a html page and i want it to show at og-clan.neq3.com not at og-clan.neq3.com/htmlpage.html

When you install a portal, it makes the portal the homepage and moves the forum, itself, down a level.

That's what they're using, on that page. Simple Portal.

If you've created your own page, you could, perhaps, move your forum into a sub-directory and have your page as the one you go to, when you go to og-clan.neq3.com

(That's if I've even remotely understood what you're saying)

If you want it at myhtml.html, name the file myhtml.html and put it in the root.
The problem is that when you point your browser to for example:
og-clan.neq3.com/
it is the same as:
og-clan.neq3.com/index.html
So you likely want to name it "index.html" so that it appears when people browse to the "index" of your home page.

[OG]Anirudh - Not sure why you are messing around like this, just put that image and the 3 options on the front page of your simpleportal installation in a html block. Make the forum width 98% (or similar) and remove the side columns on that front page as well - that will moreorless make it look very similar to what you want.

And firstly get rid of Pretty Urls !!!!  The redirects are causing havok !

Amen, to that.

[[OG]Anirudh]

i want it like tz.no1host.us

[kat]

"it" being what?

Do you mean the tedious intro, which has got nothing, at all, to do with SMF and will need coding?

Do you mean the theme they're using, on the forum? http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=2709

Or... what?

You're not giving us a lot to go on...

[[OG]Anirudh]

Wait....

So, you added an index.html file and then changes your index.php to be forum.php?


the first one, you MIGHT be able to get away with, although it is bad process - you should have moved your forum into a subdirectory and then had your root be the landing page by itself.

the second one is going to cause lots, lots and even more lots of issues all throughout your forum system....

you can't just cange the file name and assume things will work.

And of course could have been avoided entirely by just using the forum and a portal mod to create a landing page.
