Changing the URLOkay, so let me see...
I decided to get a domain name for my site, follow the helpful little guide you have, I got the name, pointed set the nameservers with everydns, directed those to the IP of the forum.
I waited for that to go through before moving on... and checked the new domain periodically, until I got the an error page for mff. That's when I knew that the dns was pointed to the right spot...
I then contacted the admin (via e-mail... the guide doesn't say or recommend how to...) and asked to change the forum from it's current - http://zudane.myfastforum.org - to the new domain - http://www.harsh-reality.info - and got a reply saying it was done. I had questioned how long it took, and was told 48 hours. I waited... but the change has not yet happened, and I was first told it was done 2 days ago, just past 48 hours.
Now that you've got the full story.. I wanted to know if something wasn't done, wasn't saved, or done wrong on my part or admin part, so I can get the new domain working for it.
What I end up with, when I try to access harsh-reality.info is I get the standard error page for a forum being closed/not working with "Your free forum harsh-reality.info does not appear to exist" as the error at the bottom.
Any help?

I'm looking into this. Own domains on phpbb3 forums are a bit of a new thing and plainly whilst all seems set up address wise, something is missing.

Long as I know you're working on it ^_^
Helps to iron out some bugs, or just learn things that phpbb3 is picky on.
Thanks!

as cool as it is to have that as the index, can I get it changed to the normal board index? It's currently an index page that lists current articles. Or can I just edit one of the files to change that page?

The www page always goes to the portal page. There are ways to manipulate that though.

Thanks ^_^ I can do that as long as I know which page it's directed at... so, off to work on my portal! mwuahahahahahhaha... lol
Thanks Admin - Always helpful and speedy! (probably the best admin I've seen to date - never are they so fast)
