Vbulletin as homepage

IrishWhite · 2008-11-07 18:27:23

Hi Guys I run a site with Vbulletin installed currently and it is hosted by Yahoo web hosting. I was wondering if anybody here could tell me how I make Vbulletin my homepage instead of having a seperate one? Thanks in advance regards Robbie

Are you talking about changing your homepage in your browser ?

Or are you talking about moving your forum from whatever folder its in to the root folder of your website so it'll appear when you go to yourwebsite.bob/ ?

Sorry I should have explained this a bit better yes I want to move it into my root folder so when I type in my URL www.coasters-remembered.com It dsplays my forum home instead of the index.html file that is there now.
