Hello guys, i have vB installed in the folder /forums but i want to make a vbulletin page in the parent dir for the folder forums. What would be the way to include global.php file and other vbulletin files so i can use the template system and all vbulletin's functions?

In PHP, chdir() to the directory containing global.php, and add <base href="http://site.com/forums/index.php" /> at the top of the <head> section for your new pages.

add <base href="http://site.com/forums/index.php" /> at the top of the <head> section for your new pages.
You can place this code at the top of headinclude (if it was not clear).

I usually do this.

$headinclude = '<base href="' . $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/index.php" />' . $headinclude;

That works as well. :) (IIRC, this has been applied in future versions of vBulletin.)
