Hello people. I am glad to be here. My name is Iztok and i come from slovenia.

Well i installed vanilla forum and i want it to include it on my website. I want it to be like forum on http://www.oswd.org

    yes, i am interested in doing this type of integration as well when our new site launches. so any help would be appreciated.

    There is not user registration for snews. Is that correct? As for making your foum look like <a href="http://www.oswd.org/forum/topics/">this</a>, that is purely a design issue and would have to be achived through your own custom style. T integrate it with your curent site, all you would have to do then is to install vanilla in a directory UNDER the root, for example http://www.historyexplorer.net/forum and just make a link to that address from snews. If you need to me to be clearer on anything, please let me know.

    for my (newbie) purposes, i was actually referring to whether you can place vanilla within an iframe or if there is a better way to "integrate" into an existing web site. any help is appreciated.

    I can't see why you couldn't put vanilla in an iFrame. You still need to install it somewhere though.
