how do I make a forum appear on my index page

[beefcake99]

I'm just starting and I can't get the vbulletin page to appear as the opening page on my website. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott

move the files that you have uploaded (including folders) to the public_html folder on your server if you have one, or just to the root that opens when you log into your FTP client if you dont. Then just change the board URL in the vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Site Name / URL

Thank you

I uploaded my files again.
In forum name I put title of forum.
In forum URL I put ,/mywebsite.com/index
In homepage name I put title
In Homepage URL I put/ mywebsite.com/index

I did all this but when I go to my sight I just get a blank index filler page.
Was wondering what to do. Also are there any sites that give examples or tutorials on how to build VB pages?
Thanks,
Scott

Your main page must require it be a *.html file. I also have this problem. I set up a redirect page to send my members to www.forum.domain.com when they come into www.domain.com.

It redirects quickly.. have your stop button ready :)

Which part of the code applies to the automatic redirect. Sorry I'm new at this.

Put <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5; url=http://www.your site.com">
in your head tags.

The 5 is the second it will redirect in.
