I have a question about my url for newbb 2?

I finally got the newbb2 installed last night thanks to you guys, now I am wondering how I can make the url look like this~

www.myparentconnection.com/boards

instead of what is on there now, which is this~

http://myparentconnection.com/modules/newbb/

I think the last one is just too much for people to type in if they just want to get to the boards kwim? Can someone please tell me how to change this to the first one?

Thanks!

They can't actually visit the forum without being logged in - unless you set permissions to allow unlogged users to view it - sohttp://myparentconnection.com/ would suffice...

Perhaps set the forum to be the "front" page... ?

Wow! You are fast to reply LOL

I forgot to add that I will have many pages to my site, and that the message boards are just an extra to the site. That is why I want it easier to access..

So what I would like is an information page when they first come to my site, then click on a link to get to the boards. Does that make sense?

What I do is have blocks to my articles, and recent topics in the forum on the front page. Otherwise a link in the main menu will do. Most users will look at the main menu to find content

That sounds like a good idea, probably more organized and neat that way. Thanks for helping both of you!
