If you really want a forum, do it similar to the way I've done it, look at the "forums" link on https://nwpps2k6.sourceforge.net/ click it (the forums link) to go to a page which will redirect you to my forums...

I guess what I'm trying to say is... Have a basic website with a link to a page which redirects to a forum on a sidebar or something similar...

I did the redirect like so;
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5; URL=http://www.vf11.com/nwpps/nwpps.html">
</head>

thats not advertising but i dont know if its allowed

Im not sure, but until you know exactly if its allowed, you could take a screenshot (to do so, press Prnt Screen and it should be copied to the clipboard) and then post it on the approriate board

I think this may have already been asked but what if we posted a website with a link to the forum we made? Would that be allowed?

**~~legendofFire~~** · 1st August 2007, 8:55 PM

dangit! i was going to advertise a friends site here as its the biggest forum i know and my friend needs extra ppl

You start by posting things once then you learn (X)HTML and CSS.

Can you ask for help if you are making a pokemon game? I am running one but all the information is on a forum server. It's not for chat though... so is it ok?

**tkdkbw** · 22nd May 2009, 12:07 AM

I have website that i made, it has a forum, can i post the address?

**Surfing_Pikachu** · 10th July 2009, 2:40 AM

I'm still a bit confused as to the rules of this. Can you give specific examples of wrong and right? From what I hear, you can't post things just to get more members or posting a thread like "check out this site!! [link goes here]" So you can only post if you have a question about it or need help with it? And no forums whatsoever.

EDIT: I read your other rules thread and I get it now. Thanks! But why is this still open when you have a much better rule thread?

Haha, Thanks, When I posted here first, I though it was for advertising sites.

**Wormow** · 16th October 2009, 11:44 PM

With vBulletin 4 coming out soon, and me upgrading my license, ya know that new front page look kinda thing? Can I use that to advertise here, or is that still counted as a forum?

If it is a forum, it's a forum. It's that simple.

**oboy170** · 12th November 2009, 11:57 PM

Can we post links to adoptable sites we made?

**(s.i.e)** · 15th November 2009, 7:35 PM

i don't understand the point, we have report buttons on this site plus mods who should be looking out for it, what happened to that? =/

This is old and outdated. I need to revamp this forum soon.

**Geddon** · 2nd August 2010, 10:25 AM

whatabout asking for help with banner designs and stuff? is that allowed? i didnt see this topic, and i amde one asking fro help with the banners, so i want to know if its allowed

**Silverwindstudios** · 16th February 2012, 8:50 PM

Just checking, but if we make a website that has a forum attached to it, is it against the rules to link to the site? ^^

**legend_trainer** · 17th February 2012, 1:35 PM

I think the deal is that as long as your site can run independant of the forum (i.e. your site doesn't link to the forum for page content) and you aren't advertising the forum (i.e. sign up here, or check out our new cool forum; but not a link in the navbar), you should be fine.

**nicse4** · 14th August 2012, 6:14 PM

here is my interpretation of the rule:

1) No putting COMES HERES in a link to a forum, and only a forum
2) You can link your website if it has a forum, but only if the website runs without the forum

i still has one question though, can i link my hand coded forums, and ask for constructive criticism(like the registration system isn't open, the post system doesn't work yet) but criticism on the style, how it is layed out, etc...
