1. If I already have a website with my domain name, can I set it up so the forum has the somain name to, just with the /forums at the end of the .com?

2. Can I lock topics and will it show a locked by it?

3. Can I make topics sticky?

4. Do I have to approve evry single person or can I have it that when people join, there names go into this "pool" only super admins (can I have admins and super admins?) can see and approve names?

5. Can I add a header image?

6. How do I create new and edit existing sections?

7. Because I see you can start a topic without being in a section, does that mean that most likely people will get confused enough that theyll click that and theres a flood of stuff I have to sort out later... or could I make it so noone can do that?

8. Can I lock up sections?

9. Can I make certatin sections only available for certain people like an admins section, super admins section, etc.

10. Can I insert youtube videos?

thanks,
TheMachinimanator

2. Yes you can, no it won't. It will show locked at the foot of the thread.

3. Yes. This will show next to it.

4. Prospective members can be approved by any Admin. (You can have Admins & Moderators.)

5. Yes, either through Forum Admin > Appearance > Colors & Images or by using CSS in Forum Admin > Appearance > CSS

6. Forum Admin > Settings > Categories

7. If starting a topic from the main forum page, the drop-down menu for section defaults to the first category. You can't change this. Suggest you make either the first category a general one or make it an Admin only section.

8. You can make a category Admin posting only and lock the posts.

9. No. http://support.lefora.com/2008/10/08/frequently-asked-questions-w-answers/page1/#post1587168

10. Yes - use the embed code from youtube and paste it in using the 'Embed Flash' option.
