I have a lot of visitors from google coming o my website, around 50% can find me in the searchs of google, so if I change to another folder, what would that give for effect on my forum ? I also have vbseo, btw.. Don't know if this would effect in any way...

What would be the wise thing to do.. just keep the forum inside the /forum direcory, or just to change this to the new way and to have it inside the root folder of my website ? I tested VB4 on my test forum and look quite ok, not yet completed, but in work in progress I would say...

Thanks.

If you want to have your forum in the root then you will have to move the forum files from the forum folder to the root and then update the url at Settings-Options-Site Name / URL / Contact Details-Forum URL.

Yes, the urls will change. Whereas about the vbseo I can''t say as I don''t use the mod myself.

Regarding if it would be a wise thing to move the forum or not, it is up to you. It is your forum, your call.
