I notice that unless someone joins and logs in, just about nothing in the forum is visible. It has the effect of making the place look rather desolate and uninviting!It also raises the thought that unless you have bot access set up then search engines are not ever going to index the site and so it's never going to turn up in search results...One more thing, the big banner at the top and bottom redirect to the site where they were created - ideally they should direct to this forum itself.Hope it helps,

You have no boards visible with any topics. So why would anyone register if they came to the site?

thats the question really is it that i should set permissions to see all before they register or only the ones that look interesting to them to make them come to join up or what

Just make a board and start new topics in them for guests to read and review.
