Hi

I want to change the my vbulletin url. from mydomain.com/vb/ to mydomain.com/forum/

Most of the search engines are using old URL if i change to the new one i will lost all index pages. Is there any modification to let the users to refer to same page when they click to old url.

What we're trying to say, is KEEP your /vb/ folder and a redirect file in there so if someone clicks /vb/ they will automatically be redirected to /forum/

It's in the members area on vbulletin.com
