  Hi WP support,

  Im kind of a noob, can I host my forum from my blog domain?

  For example if I purchased the $17 upgrade for http://www.kousoku-automotive.com as my main domain can I add my forum (http://kousoku-automotive.forumotion.co.uk) as a subdomin kousoku-automotive.com/forum

  Thanks
  Blog url: http://kousokuautomotive.wordpress.com/

  It looks like you can map a domain or subdomain to your Forumotion site by following this guide from their FAQ pages.

  If you wanted to use a subdomain, you would need to use the format forum.kousoku-automotive.com.

  It’s not possible to host your Forumotion forum directly from your WordPress.com site since it’s hosted by a different company. However, you can certainly link to a third-party forum site from your WordPress.com blog.
