how to make the portal default?

Do you mean the portal as a start page?
Open root/htaccess add this at the end:

Thanks, it works fine!

Hi. when I try this it breaks on me.
DirectoryIndex phpbb3/app.php/portal index.php index.html index.htm

Any ideas? I am converting my wordpress side articles into the forum side right now so I will need to figure this out. Thank you!

Here is a pic of broken view.

You did not enter it correctly:

but the folder is not at my root. I try it without the phpbb3 and just my viragohelp wordpres side loads..... viragohelp.com loads wordpress side. viragohelp.com/phpbb3/index.php loads phpbb

Your .htaccess is located in the directory phpbb3
An alternative would be this:
Create a file called portal.php with the following content:
Load this file into your forum root (where the config.php is located).


Open: root/.htaccess
Add this at the very end:

I actually tried that yesterday and it worked! Thank you very much. My website is barely covering itself but I went ahead and sent 20 bux to board 3. I donated before but it was few years back. This extension in my opinion is one of the best for phpbb. I have another question but I will make a new post for it. Thank you!
