Hi, all. Here’s where I’m at…

I have my bb at http://www.example.com/community . There are a ton of forums underneath it, so, to speed things up, we’re moving the top level (the bb landing page) to a static HTML page. That page lives at http://www.example.com/communityboard

What I’d like is to have it so that when the user goes to http://www.example.com/community (where the bb lives), they are redirected to http://www.example.com/communityboard . That way, when the user is in the forum and clicks on the breadcrumb to go to the top level, it will redirect them to /communityboard. We want to completely cut out users arriving at /community .

Is this possible?

What file needs to be edited to make it happen, and how?

Really appreciate any advice you have to offer!

There’s a few ways to do this, and probably using .htaccess would be the best, but i think you’re overlooking a rather more simple solution.

Why not just change the “front-page.php” file in your theme to be a static list of forums? I did that on one of mine and it made alot of difference and a quick fix
