Hello support team / users,
                                           I would first like to start off by saying if this has already been answered I would aprreciate it if you redirected me to the page and later delete this topic, thanks!


Here's my problem, my current forum which I am currently testing is for a clan on 2 separate games ( both clans made by the same person ). And I already set up the forum for the one clan ( by forum i mean where you can create topics and reply to them etc ). I am wondering how do you make a duplicate of that page and paste it but change the tab title, for example.


Page 1 = abc > Duplicated > page 2 = abc


Once you shown me how to duplicate a page how would I then change the page 2 title from abc to def for example. It would then be like this


Page 1 = abc > duplicated > page 2 = abc > rename > page 2 = def


Thanks for the help!

If you wish to create a custom page go to:
EzPortal> Page Manager> [Add Page].


After creating the page, copy the page url.
That is, at least, if you want to make a tab at the top of your forum to lead
to the custom page.


To make a custom tab to link to your page go to:
Admin> Style Manager> Custom Tabs> [Then add the url.]


If this didn't help you with everything then us know.

You would travel to:
Admin> Forum> Boards> Modify boards> "[Create New Category] if wanted"> Then add board.


Hope that helps.

Umm, i don't think you understood me their, maybe this will help


I currently got this on my tab ( made it as an example )
http://gyazo.com/2654fd1177a49192709586a65ae18dec
You will notice i got the " forum " and the " clash of lords 2 "


This is the forum tab:
http://gyazo.com/1ab1edd72ff4607ee9ee4b57bf0a90a4
You can see I got the forum with boards etc.


BUT i want another forum the EXACT same on the " clash of Lords 2 " tab.


So that means I got the exact same forum on both tabs?

The only way I think this would be possible is if you create a secondary SMFNew forum
and lead the page to it.

Why have two separate forums? You just create twice the amount of work.

Would it not make more sense to have one forum for both clans? Create two groups for the clans, then when creating boards etc.. set what group can see/enter and post in what forum boards. It'll be easier to administrate one forum rather than two.
