				I installed apnews successfully, but I can't seem to figure out how to make the news page my homepage. I'm very new at this whole php stuff, and I'm learning as I go along. The readme said
 
 
"Step 7: Using the outputted news
 
---------------------------------
 
Use the following code to place the news on your site:
 
 
PHP:
 
<?php include("/path/to/script/news.php"); ?>"
 
 
This is were I got a little confused. I know about what path I should type in, but I don't know were I type it. Is it index.php in my htdocs folder? Is it another php file? Do I make a new php file and paste that in there?
 
 
I already got phpbb set up, but I wan't a professional looking website, so I need more then just a forum. I think AP should do the trick..
 
 
 
I already posted in apnews forums, but there forums are dead...
 
I also tried cutenews and had the same problem.  Can anyone point me in the right direction? |

				According to what we understand, replace /path/to/script/news.php withe full path of the PHP news script you've setup. So if its full path is c:/scripts/apnews/news.php, include the  following line in your index.php file:
 
 
 	  | Code: | 	 		  | <?php include("/path/to/script/news.php"); ?> | 	  
 
 
to show the news. _________________ Support Team
