waynemck Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 I want to put some sort of forum on my organization's website where the members can post messages to one another. They actually want two forums, one password-protected and the other open to anyone. Do you have anything to point me in the right direction as to how this can be done?Thanks, Wayne :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
