Chat / forum

Hello Can I add a chat room or forum to a web site made using WD6. I assume it would also need a facility where members would need to register before posting a thread, just like TG
Thanks
Arjay

Most companies don't attempt to include a forum directly in their website, but will link to an established forum solution that sits in a subdirectory of the main site. So it's not a question adding it to a WD6 site directly, but hosting a forum solution on a subdirectory/subdomain and linking through to it. That's how most people/companies do it.

Thanks for that, I'll give that a go.

Do a Google search for web forums. There are some free ones as well as some paid solutions. I have used Website Toolbox Website Forum Hosting and was very happy with the forum as well as with the support.
