Charlie,

re you using a Portal Mod? and if you are and you add a Front page to your site you will get the forum button!

If not the Users will Click on the Site name from your Site map tree at the top of the board to go to the forum start (Forum Index page). or the Logo at the top of your page!

If you do have a Portal installed please visit the home site of this Protal and seek your How to set up a front page on their site!

Please read my signature before you do anything!

regards,
Maxx

charlie,

Welcome to the Cripzone.

What Portal are you using and what version?  What version of SMF are you using?  What Maxx was trying to say is that if you are using a version of SMF greater than 2.0, the Portal, when it's installed, should add a Forum button to your top menu as long as you don't have your Portal FrontPage set to go straight to the Forum BoardIndex.  If it is set to go straight to there, there will be no need for a Forum tab since the Forum would be on the FrontPage.  I hope you understood that.  Let us know.

Charlie, if you want to rename some default buttons like "Help", then you should search somewhere in the language files. I'm not shure where, but the people on simplemachines.org do know
