With WebSite Tonight, you can add a discussion forum to your Web site to allow visitors to add discussions to categories and post comments in discussion threads. When you add a forum to your Web site, it counts against the number of pages your WebSite Tonight plan allows. For example, if your WebSite Tonight plan includes 10 pages, when you add a forum to your site, you have 9 remaining pages to use when building your Web site.
