It is possible. Have you set up your forums.langleyhornetsfc.co.uk domain to point to ZetaBoards with a CNAME? Your CNAME will be in the format s1.zetaboards.com, changing dependent on what server your forum is on. |

Do you have a control panel provided with your domain's registrar for the controlling of settings to do with your domain? Have you created your forums subdomain? |

no worries! By forum subdomain I meant this (forums.langleyhornetsfc.co.uk) Could you perhaps take a screenshot of the view inside your CP? Thanks |

How are you currently pointing your domain to your website? Where did you purchase your domain? Jonathan |
