I spent a lot of time recently working on my website Tannylouise.
I wanted to add in a forum and after some recommendations from the Zodiacs on the YoTA forum I decided to install the plugin Simple:Press which installs a forum within WordPress which runs my sites.
After working out how users can be added easily and stopped from accessing my dashboard – again with some help from YoTA and the Simple:Press forums, I was able to start setting up my forum.
There are some great resources available in the Simple Press forum once I worked out what phrases I wanted to search for.
Something I’ve learnt since I started working on my own blogs and websites is that what I think something is described as and what it’s called on the resources available can be totally different. All I can advise you to do is be patient and take notice of what the search results bring you and change your searches to work your way through.
After a bit of time, I worked out what I wanted and started putting it into place. I like the forum set up and that I can control what access players have to various groups and forums. It’s very easy to add additional forums and adding users is also easy.
I had help from Kaatlouise (Korey) in setting up the forum and suggestions for groups and forums.
I now have a forum on Tannylouise. You are welcome to come visit and say hi 🙂
