Code: Select all
<html>   <head>   <title>zigs-stuff.org - Main Portal</title> <META>   </head> </html>


I save this as index.html and put it in my / folder right?

Because it didn't work.

If you put that as an index.html file in your main website root directory, it should work.

For example, in my setup, the main directory is called public_html and that's the directory I'd place the index.html file.

Yes I did that and it still sent me to my forum page. Is there another way, maybe, I could try?

Thanks for your help.

Nevermind I got it to work. What I did for those who might be wondering also. I moved all my forum files into a different directory
and followed Mandoos advice in this thread

And it works YAY! <img>
