Create Forum Configuration Record
We are creating a single Forum Configuration element record to be used within the application.
- Go to the Add New Config Data page
- Update the following fields:
- FORUM HOME URL - The home (or root) URL for your FORUM or site
- SUBSCRIPTION FROM EMAIL - The FROM email address for thread subscription post notifications
- Submit the form to create one record.
The other fields will be completed as the pages are built.
See the Site Configuration wiki page for more information on the fields and the correct values.
Reset the ADF for the server and site.
