Directory Structure

IWe're often asked on this site why there is /forum/forum/ in the URL and the reason is because in past versions vBulletin was always installed in the /forum/ directory and now to keep old links working we have to keep it in the same folder- but if starting fresh with VB5 we would install it somewhere else.

I am official vBulletin support and my answer stands, if your vBulletin is installed in the root you get the directory structure you requested:
Example:
Root: http://sedona.vbulletin.net/
Forum: http://sedona.vbulletin.net/forum/
Blog: http://sedona.vbulletin.net/blogs/
However you have now added that you have a homepage and other folders in the root- in that case you would not want to install vBulletin in the root as they would likely conflict with existing pages/folders/ I would recommend you install in a folder called "community" or something similar so URLs would be like domain.com/community/forum/ and domain.com/community/blogs/
Sorry for the confusion.

Got this response from support just now:
Hello,
Your blog and forum must be located in the same directory.
Example: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/blogs
So two different answers... too late I already purchased the software. Nice.
I thought Joe D. was official vBulletin support... how could he not know this??Last edited by war10ck; Tue 10 Mar '15, 9:33am.Leave a comment:

OK, I think I understand what you are saying but my website is not just a forum/blog. I have a home page and other pages/folders in the root. So in that case is it possible to have /forum and /blog folders as opposed to reaching the blog by going to /forum/blog.
Edit: hehe the second time I read your post I realized that is exactly what you are saying.
Thanks for the response.

If you install vBulletin in your website root that will actually be the directory structure by default.Leave a comment:
