Default Remove a redirect-How to do it

Hello everyone...

When i type in www .myforum.com ,the page automatically goes to

Code:
www.myforum.com/myforum/myforum.html
that html page has bunch of images and a link which points to "forums/index.php"

I would like to go directly to the forums/index.php page when i type in www .myforum.com

How do i make that change ?

i tried removing the "myforum.html" page through file manager in cPanel and got a 404 page not found error.

In my admincp,under vb options >site name/URL details,the "home page URL" option is set as forums/index.php


thanks in advance....:up:

Can you post the content of your .htaccess file located in at the root folder of your domain?

check in cpanel for a redirect, as well, you dont need the front page vti folders, but keep the .htaccess files intact.

if there is no .htaccess file in public_html folder, then its in cpanel or its in the index.html or index.php file in public_html folder.
