| I would like to embed the BIBLE, on the forum that I run, so that when someone posts scriptures, it links to the verses, or chapter, as you have on this forum. How would I do this?

| Wouldn't the site have all the information you need to embed the bible on other sites, I have no idea what the site is. |

| What board software do you use, and does your host allow you access to install modifications?

| Thank you WGM and Gibby. To answer the questions... The forum is thorugh forumotion.com The board is a phpbb3 Yes, I can modify through templates and CSS I just don't understand how to do it, or where to get the code to add the Bible in at. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

| You need to have access to the file manager and in some cases, the database (which you probably don't if you are at a free forum hosting site). I think there is a bbcode modification that will help with the bible linking, but it won't automatically link it. I can try and dig it up if you are interested.

| I have done so, under Gibby's guidance, on my site Onetigero. but it is hosted as a subforum of Lampstand. I have looked at Forumotion and dont think that the facilities to link in that manner (via BBCodes) is possible. But if you find it so, and with Gibby's permission, I would be prepared to share it with you.

| Thanks IChThUS and Gibby. I am willing to try the code, and see if it will work. I do a lot of BIBLE studies, and feel that this tool would be benificial. I am slow in understanding sometimes...I blame it on age, so please explain in steps, and if you like, pm me the information. ![]() Thank you again for your help.

| Go into your ACP and create a new bbcode. Try this bbcode: Code: [bible={TEXT}]
Code: <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search={TEXT}&version=31">{TEXT}</a>
After you do this, you can just wrap bible tags around your bible verses and it will link them.

| Thats what I was going to pass on to you from Gibby, Onetigero but I did in the early stages of my development download a forumation version and upon digging it up cant find an area of the ACP where it is possible to access and ammend BBCodes. So it seems to be a dead end.

| Thanks Gibby and IChThUS, it may be impossible for me to do, right now, but I am going to hang on to the codes. I do know someone who is familiar with my forum setup, and I will ask him if it is possible, using these codes. It really would be a help for me, if it works. Praying.
