Can someone please tell me where I need to go to make the bolded area United Stangs, The United Mustang Community > Site Related > Feedback and Suggestions link members back to the FORUMS main page, NOT to the Home Page?

I think it is defined in your Admin CP > vBulletin options > Site Name / URL / Contact Details > Forum URL At least, I'm pretty sure that is the one.

In there, I have http://unitedstangs.com/forum for Forums URL and http://unitedstangs.com/forums/cmps_index.php for Home Page ... that's correct, isn't it? I mean, each takes me to Forums and Home. I've gotta be missing something still.

Lost me there ... but the part I'm wanting to change has nothing to do with my banner .. please take a look at the screenshot in the original post. I'm wanting the part in bold below United Stangs, The United Mustang Community > United Stangs Community > Sub Forum > Sub Forum

to link to http://unitedstangs.com/forums and right now it's linking elsewhere

Still misunderstanding me, I think. I have that first block filled in with what I want it to read.
The circled part below is what I need to link to /forums/index.php and it's linking to forums/cmps_index.php

In the first option, Forum Name, I have United Stangs, The United Mustang Community and that's what is displaying (as circled in my screenshot), but when I click on that part, it links users to the home page, NOT the FORUMS page, and I need it to link to Forums. In my screencap you'll notice after that part it says > Site Related etc etc If I click on Site Related, it takes me to the Site Related sub forum. Well, the link just before that should take me to the Forums home and it doesn't. The part you've told me to edit/input and save is for the title I have circled in the screencap, not where I need it to link to.

dhdcf, I wonder if perhaps the template was changed and that is why that link is not going to the correct location. The template you want to look at is called "navbar_link". Is this set to the default or what it modified? Mine is set to default and it works fine (and I have the same Forums URL as you).

Thanks, I'll take a look at that template.

Mine hasn't been modified; it's at default as well.
