then when do you do all that .... you want to make the a first account because the first account made on the Forums is an Auto Admin....


Step Four....
if you want to change of the name of your website ... go to shortURL.com - free short URL redirection with no ads! and type in the name you want for your website... you will have to wait a day or to for them to agree for your website name to be aproove..... so dont pick anything thats unrated like porn sites names ....

Well hope this guide will help people ..... any questions i will answer any thing if anyone needs help

[DoGgY]

WTF .. I don't even understand one thing .. why don't you just don't download apache
and get a template, put it on apache and load it from your ip ( get dyndns )

[Ganom]

I agree with boudin about first part, and it was very contributive =), +rep.

[Bossform]

well this is just an guide for ppl if they want to make a private server website or a guild website for retail.... you can make it as what ever you want .... its not like everyone knows about apache

[DoGgY]

well most of people are comming here for WoW private server and in the ac web repack, apache is already instaled .. so

[Bossform]

its just a guide .... no reason to fight over it .... if they come here for ac web repacks and stuff ... let them... if they want to use this guide they can... noone is stoping anyone for doing what they want to do .... I just made to guide to help ppl...

[DoGgY]

im not fighting .. only try to understand why doing a complicated guide when you can post something with apache that i way simple

[skhouri10]

Blast i was just setting up a display site with freewebs. oh well +rep anyway

[Marshal]

Dont use Freewebs, if this is just gonna be the website use Funpic.org. and dyndns for reg. (Recommend Ryndns for both)

[hendricius]

Thanks for this cool guide . Yes. I agree, funpic is much better, then create your forum over there. Alternatively, you can pay 20 $ for a complete website for 1 year.
