Hi - I have a very simple informational website i set up a few years back www.flyingtoaustralia.co.uk

I'm interested in adding a discussion forum to the site, something simple that fits in with the payout i.e. not too wide. I've installed Vanilla Discussion Board before however its probably a bit more than i need. The key thing is i dont want to embed it using a frame or javascript as i want all info on the discussion forum to be visible to google search bots etc i.e. i want to bring people to the site using the content on the discussion board. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Thanks maeltar. I have installed phpbb on my machine and linked it to the site. Thinking i might just go with this and forget about trying to embed it stylistically into the site.

IMO it never seems to fit in right when doing it that way though, that why I like to use simpler forums products for sites, so you don't have way to much of an issue with css etc...
