HELP-O!! How do I separate my blog and forum?

[hardboiled]

I have a forum at mmahaven.net, I want a blog in place of it, and the forum to be a link redirecting to a different url address, like mmahaven.net/forum. How do I do this in my FTP? Anyone, PLEEASE!

Create directory 'forum'
Move all files currently in your webroot to the new forum directory.
Update the Forum URL in your vBulletin settings.

Now, does this mean I have to create a sub-domain in order to do this, or can the "forum" folder be located in webroot?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Either.

and when you refer to "updating the forum URL in the vbulletin settings", do you mean in the php file, or via the admin cp?

AdminCP > vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Site Name/URL/Contact Details

When you change directories or change to a subdomain its not good for seo.
