How to Make a Forum in Dreamweaver MX
Open the 'Start' menu, click 'All Programs,' then move to the 'Adobe' folder and click 'Dreamweaver MX.'
Click the 'Open' option in the 'File' menu, then select the website file you want to add a forum to. Click 'Open' after selecting the file.
Click the 'Tools' menu, move to the 'Wizards' option and click 'Forum Wizard.'
Click the forum option you want. The 'Single Section' option will create a one-section forum. Each section can contain more than one folder, or discussion area. The 'Multiple Sections' option allows you to create a forum with multiple sections, each with its own discussion areas. If you select 'Multiple Sections,' enter the number of sections in the 'Sections' field. Click 'Next' when you're finished.
Enter the names of the sections. If you selected a single section, enter the section name at the top. If you selected the multiple-sections option, enter the section names in the text fields provided. They will appear in the order you enter them. Click 'Next' when you're finished to enter the discussion area names.
Enter the name of at least one discussion area. Click 'Add' to add another discussion area. The discussion areas will appear in the order you enter them here. If you selected the multiple-sections option, click 'Next' to proceed to the next section. Each section will have its own screen to enter the discussion area names.
Click 'Next' after the final section configuration to see the summary screen. If the configuration is correct, click 'Publish' to export a file for use on your website, otherwise click 'Back' to change the names or order.
Click the file option you want to use. The options are: 'HTML,' 'HTML/CSS Style Sheet' and 'HTML/Java.' The first two options are compatible with all hosting providers. The 'HTML/CSS Style Sheet' will provide a nice appearance while being compatible with virtually all Web browsers.
Click 'Finish' to export the files. Upload the forum files according to your hosting provider's instructions.
