URL needed when registering?
« on: September 17, 2016, 09:25:22 pm »
I've attempted to create a forum, but keep getting shut down because of an incorrect URL.  What am I suppose to enter for the URL?

Url should only be numbers and letters.

Not following...I thought create a forum served as the host?

It is for free forums. if you want a custom domain you can add it later after you signup. In the admin -> domain manager.

Yes, but if I leave that section blank I get an error message.  I was attempting to set up the free forum to check it out, but the form was requiring me to put something in the URL field.

You have to enter a subdomain name. A subdomain will be created no matter what.
