PT Forums Subsites

Back to Build Templates/Pages

Overview

It is highly recommended to have a Forums Web Admin subsite for administrators and a Forums Lightbox subsite for the lightbox pages. This allows security to be setup for the subsite to allow only administrators access for the webadmin and the CS toolbar turned off for the lightbox pages.

Your site may already have a webadmin and/or lightbox subsite. The steps below will add a forums subsite into the webadmin and lightbox subsites.

Forums

1. Create a new subsite under the site root called forums.

Lightbox

1. Create a new subsite under the site root called lightbox.
2. Create a new subsite under lightbox called forums.
