I am ready to activate my forum.
Right now it works under -

https://www.buildingengeertalk.com/upload

I want it to work under -

https://www.buildingengineertalk.com

Need some help.

I move all the files in buildingengineertalk.com/upload/ to /public_html/ directory.

Then I do WHAT? change the core URL in settings in AdminCP

http://buildingengineertalk.com/upload/core

Change it to what?

Then modify my config.php

I guess I change this line in config.php -
$config['baseurl'] = 'http://www.buildingengineertalk.com/upload';
By taking off the /upload

Correct?

Really need help now.

I just screwed up my entire forum.

Put all your files back in /upload/

You need to change the Core URL in Admin CP -> Settings -> options -> site name / url / contact details FIRST.

Once it has been changed, then move your folders and files out of /upload/ and to /public_html/

Then edit what will be your /public_html/config.php file

Make sure /upload is not in the base URL. It should only be http://www.domain.com (And it should NOT end in a slash )

Finally check your .htaccess file now as well. If you had added RewriteBase /upload/ to it, delete the line, otherwise it should be OK

You should now be able to log in/use the site as normal.
