I'm fairly new to Jamroom. Just getting my head around it's concepts. I paid for the Ning to Jamroom import service, so I theoretically have forum content. But I can't find anything that explains how to present the forum on my site. I've tried numerous methods and I'm getting blank results. Does anyone have any tips to get me started?

Hi Michael
I imported your Ning 'global' discussions to the Community profile forum, so that they show here - http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/community/forum

You are using the Ningja skin and that has a setting for the forum URL, so if you go to ACP=> Skin Settings and paste the above URL into the Forum Profile URL field, a forum menu item will show on your pages in the header which will take you straight there.

Thank you Paul. It looks like that had already been done. What was wrong was the missing "/community/" path in the menu link. Regardless, your response solved it for me. Thank you very much.

Michael- also note that your link above ends with an 's' on 'forums', whereas the correct link has 'forum', not forums'. This is a common error until you get used to it. Be sure to use links that have "/forum", not "/forums"

so, even if you add the 'community' part of Paul's link, if you keep the 's' on forum at the end of the link, you'll still get File Not Found.
