How do I do this?

[foulplay]

I have vbulletin 3.6.1 installed on public_html and renamed the upload folders to "forums"

Basically I want to move it to my root folder so that my site will come as www.mysite.com instead of www.mysite.com/forums. How do I do this or what are the steps I need to take? I don't want to lose any post or information on my forum.

just copy all the files from /forums to / and then change the forum path in the config.php file and the admincp > vBOptions > site URL and it's done.

Make sure you move your existing files on your site, otheriwse you may well miss something.

Once you have finished this, delete the forums folder.
