Change vbulletin installation directory
When I first installed Vbulletin I threw all the content into the /main directory after my web root. So my url looks like http://url.com/main/content.php. I want a very SEO friendly way of moving all the content out of the /main folder, into the / folder so my urls look something like http://url.com/content.php. I'm thinking the only way is to do a 301 redirect using the .htaccess folder, but I have absolutely no idea how to do it.
Am I on the right track? Thanks! |

And you would also obviously have to move the files to the new directory and change the settings in your vBulletin Options in your AdminCP for "Site Name / URL / Contact Details" |

Thanks for the info HMBeaty. I think my issue is, how would I create an htaccess file that would redirect every old page to the new page?

RedirectMatch 301 /main/(.*) //$ |
