Switching to sub-domain
 
Is it possible to switch an install of vbulletin from sub-folder to sub-domain and preserve the pre-exisiting content?

In other words, my forum is currently installed in "www.mydomain/forum/" ... I want to change it to "http://forum.mydomain.com" If I do this, will it screw up the linking structure and old posts? Or is there a way to do this while preserving everything?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm pretty sure it can be moved easily. Just move the folder, change the forum location that's set in the Admin CP and that's it.

Yeah - that's pretty much it. If you don't want to loose your traffic/SEO you'll have to use a redirect that redirects all the old posts to the new posts.
