Moving Xenforo from home to forum directory

How to make wordpress a blog inside xenforo?

 

[borbole]

So, I installed Xenforo in my home directory (public_html) and decided that I want to have wordpress on my site. If I make a forum directory and move all the xenforo files into it, are there any settings I need to change for it to work properly?

You must also update the Board URL setting at Options->Basic Board Information at your Acp.

you might want to use /community- (xenforo.com is installed in the /community directory).

I know this isn't a direct reply but I would recommend LN Blog. It is still in beta now but it is very well designed, and is built perfectly for XF. Also Jaxel is working on a blog add-on. With these add-ons you wont have to deal with ads, or other fees beyond what you choose to contribute to the developers.

LNBlog wouldn't work for a landing page, which is what he seems to want.

Thats fine, I will wait for Jaxel's blog addon then. Thanks.

Wordpress is good too.

Google loves wordpress.

Xenpress - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/xenforo-wordpress-theme.9163/ demo here
or
WPXenCSS - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/wordpress-dynamic-theme-wpxencss.12057/

Jaxel's Blog has no ETA.
I'm sure it'll be good.

Regarding your original question of moving the installation path, that's covered in the FAQ:

How can I move my installation to a different directory?
Update the Board URL in the ACP -> Options -> Basic Board Information and move the files to the new directory. You may need to restart the server for the change to take effect.

As far as I know I don't think he was going to make his blog work as a landing page, and would require XenPorta to do so. Even with using XenPorta, it wouldn't be a blog on the front end.

 

[Ryan Kent]

He has XenPorta currently installed as his landing page.

Ampd, was your goal with Wordpress to create a landing page? Or to simply add the blog functionality to your site?

 

[Forsaken]

I took it to be he wanted it as the landing page because he wanted to move directories and put Wordpress on the front; if he just wants a blog LNBlog would be the best option, especially in the long run.

I was planning on using wordpress as a blog.

I was planning on using wordpress as a blog.

minor suggestion: get rid of the Help Tab. Make it a subtab of the Forums.
Are you using WPXenCSS ?

I think this would be nice:



Your wiki is looking good:

Make sure you ask Jaxel what wiki features you want
