Adding a Counter/ Changing Board Title

[neps]

Forum URL: squealer23.proboards23.com I'd like to change the URL address in order to reflect what the site is about, is there a way to do this or do i need to start again.

Also I would like to add a counter in order to keep a visit count on my site. I entered www.free-easy-counter.com and selected the counter.

The instructions were a little confusing as it said add the intruction link to the URL which I did, this changed the address and meant I had to re-enter the address.

Does Proboards have a counter facility?

Can anyone help??

Many thanks

You cannot change you forum URL, you can re-direct to it from other URLs though.

ProBoards does not have a counter facility, you should add the code you obtained from www.free-easy-counter.com to your global footer.

That help?

P.S. You should remove A:M/C from the title of your thread, as you do not need their help.

Thanks for your advice However I'm even more confused than when I started.

A:M/C where would i find this? I didn't know I even had it what ever it is.

And you say I need to add the code to the footer for the counter, Do I need to to do this in profiles?

And thirdly about th e URL I'd basically need to start again, is that what you're saying?

Your helps appreciated.

Sorry but I'm totally new to this so I've probably over done it with questions...

Sorry, you don't need to worry about the A:M/C bit. For the counter yes, you should add that to your Global footers: admin > headers/footers > Global footer.
As for the URL, yes, sorry, you'd need to start over.

I am going to remove "A:M/C" from your thread title, as your query did not fall into the parameters asked when you checked the box.

As was stated above, you cannot change your boards URL, unless you use a short URL which can be found in the FAQ.

As for a counter, I recommend www.statcounter.com
