I’m sure that I have missed something obvious… but this is my first time working with the Forum Module.
I would like to have an obvious link, for users, in the Forums leading back to the website home page.
I’ve looked carefully [as have a couple of testers] and I can’t see one.
Is there are setting in the EE Forum module, which will allow you to supply that url?
Alternatively, do I have to modify a forum template - if so, which one.
Any hints gratefully received…

In the default theme, forum templates, Breadcrumb I add the below
<div class="breadcrumb"><a href="http://www.yoursite.com/">Home</a> < {breadcrumb_links}</div>#3 / Jan 16, 2009 8:21am
Thanks for that 😊 I’ll go ahead and do something similar
I was hoping that there was some option in the CP - ah well…

well - if I have to tweak the template, then I have to remember to do that again if the forum is updated [I’m just sticking with the default themes - as the forums are private]
Whereas, if it was built into the EE templates, and some CP option allowed you to display it or not, then no such tweak would be needed. [i think]
[edit]
BTW the suggestion works nicely - thanks 😊
