Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I looked at http://mac1.no/ and noticed they have the forum actually embeded within the content of the site, instead of in a whole separate window. I would like to know how to do this so bad. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Watch out for Mac1.no v.4 in the next couple of weeks, phpBB 3.x and Drupal 5.2 :)

Are you the owner of this site by any chance? I really like the overall theme of the site and I'm hoping to make something similar for my site.

archard CreditAttribution: archard commentedHow did you get that latest forum topics block (Siste fra forumet and Siste ubesvarte) on the side of the forum. Isn't that dynamic Drupal content? I don't understand how you would put the variables for that into the PhpBB template.

The generated string is then passed to the template as a variable.

but I used php snippets with Iframes.
Look add
http:\\testweb.dyndns.biz
if any body is interested I will place the snippets in the 'site software' menu.
Amigob,
