Where can I change the forum\_home\_path link, so that it goes to a page  
that I specify.

This is the full context from one of the topics views:  
\<%= link\_to \_(‘Forums’), forum\_home\_path %\> →

If anyone knows off hand, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks in  
advance!!

just create a route

first get the routes form the plugin:

#get routes for beast  
map.from\_plugin :savage\_beast

map.forum\_home ‘/forums’, :controller =\> ‘forums’, :action =\> ‘index’

the demo app should answer most other questions you’ll have:

have fun.
