Changing my Forum URL

edited April 2011 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

Hi guys - I have a forum up here: http://www.triplepundit.com/forum/

I need to change the URL to something else. (I know there are SEO considerations there, but I don't care, it hasn't been live long enough to matter)

I can't seem to get anywhere with this. Can someone walk me through what I need to do to here?

Thanks!

    0. Backup your config file and database (always do this before big changes for extra safety)
    1. Rename the 'forum' folder to whatever you want. Vanilla will break.
    2. Delete the .ini files in your cache folder. Everything should work again.
    3. Optionally set up a redirect from /forum to your new folder name in htaccess

    Should be all you need to do :)
