Simply copy the existing forum (with all its sub-directories) to another directory and regenerate the forum main page for the new forum. You can do this by logging in to the new forum using the URL http://site/cgi-bin/AnyBoard.cgi/new_forum_virtual_path/?cmd=log then configure the forum name. The forum pages will be regenerated. 34. How do I make my cool configuration show up as a optional setting for other forums? Copy the .forum_cfg file to the master configuration directory, rename it to a file with extenstion .conf. For instance, if you name it blue-fancy.conf, then blue-fancy will show up as a stock configuration for all forums to choose.
