Hey There,

I would like to know how can I change the vBulletin Directory?

Currently: domain.com/forum

New Directory: domain.com/forums

vBulletin Version: 4.2.1

Just make sure you have the correct directory's name and replace it in Settings > Options > Site Name / URL / Contact Details > Forum URL

You should have the current directory there, to change the directory you will need to use FTP such as filezilla or threw your cPanel and just rename it....
