when you go to my homepage: www.thesackshack.com
It shows Index of/ cgi-bin and vbulletin
If you click the bulletin link, it brings up my forum perfect.

Hello ,
well lets say you have the following directory structure /www/sitename/
and in here /www/sitename/vbulletin/ is ur forum i could advice you to just moove all the files in /www/sitename/ but then it could couse numeros problems so the best thing is to delete the /vbulletin/ folder and upload the files in /www/sitename/
* note in order your forum to be as main page it must not be in in other folder than your domain main folder !!
so after you upload the files again install the forum !
hope that helpd

DwS Solutions is your solutions for wordpress, vbulletin and joomla site
thats what i did for the time being. i did a redirect for thesackshack.com -> thesackshack.com/forums.
Thing Im worried about is whats gonna happen if I decide I actually DO want a home page at thesackshack.com
Avi, heres the thing. No matter what I do with the forum (vbulletin) locations, it STILL shows that same thing. Im wondering if its b/c there is no index.html file (?). i cant seem to find a 'domain main folder'.
heres a screenshot of how my file tree looks. Everything done in the 'public_html' folder is mirrored in the 'www' folder.
public_html and www folders are the same. If you want V Bullentin to be your main site then install it in public_html. Then when you enter yourmaindomain.com your forum should display.
Don't hap-hazardly delete files.

The VBulletin files are in public_html. Thats what Im not understanding
Look @ the screenshot I put up, they are there but for some reason my main homepage is index of -> cgibin and vbulletin.
Do i need to rename the public_html folder to 'index.html' and change my config.php file to reflect the new name?
