and if i change the forums' position to /forums will the SQL recognize it ? or will it give me errors?

as long as your config.php is pointing to the Proper DB, it will not effect the boards no matter which directory it is in. (if you do it this way, don't forget to update the forums address in your member CP @ vBulletin.com)

I'm guessing you tried to set the portal as your home page right, via the adminCP??

Rename vBindex.php to index.php.

Then

in the adminCP under the option of "Forums Home Page options" may i suggest you set it to a different name other than index(like forums, home, etc...), then all you have to do is rename index.php(webroot directory) to whatever you named it in the admincp, Like so



When visitors view your home page, it will load index.php(which if you renamed vBindex.php) would be your portal page.

then all they'd have to do click the link in the navebar at the top to enter the forums, or click on a topic title.

edit: you'd also have to edit the image paths per the Instructions when you first set up the portal, if you were to change the forums directory..
