Replying to What Folder Do I Upload Vbulletin To?

they are pointing to the astahost name servers. but i still must wait 2 days right?

Did you point the Astahost DNS nameservers to your domain at that .info one you asked for? I assume you have that site up and running now right? You need to go to the registrar where you got this site and change it so it's pointing to Asta instead of your previous web host.

Get the DNS information from:

http://www.astahost....ount-t3608.html

You should have already read that topic already since you were approved and that link was provided to you to follow on.

Your site will be at http://www.urban-threads.info/

i know with any domain i should wait 48 hours but how can i view my site what is my adress?

I don't have much idea about that but from what I have seen:-

Account Creation is instant and if you are using a Sub domain, Your "free web hosting" account will be active immediately.

It seems to me like you will have to wait for a while. You might consider building some decent amount of credits before the excellent service is fully at your disposal.

thanks that helped alot. and additionally my domain is still connected to my old host even though i have changed the nameservers should i wait 2 days?

Yes, inorder to use forum.urban-threads.info/forum, I believe you need to create subdomain first. While, by default urban-threads.info/forum would be the one you'll be working with.

By the way, make sure to replace the default index.html file under www or public_html. If you want your forum to be accessed as http://www.urban-thr....info/index.php then just upload VB to the www folder and not under www/forums.

Just upload all the whole vBulletin package to the directory you want your forum to be in. For example, if you want your forum to be at www.yoursite.com/vB, you create a folder called vB and upload all the files into it. If you want to create a forum only site where your forum will be www.yourforum.com, just put all the files in the main public_html file.

should'nt it be urban-threads.info/forum not forum.urban-threads.info/forum

I presume you are confused by the folders you see in your astahost account, namely - .cpanel-datastore, .fantasticodata, .htpasswds, .trash, _notes, downloads, etc, mail, public_ftp, public_html, tmp, www

Well, any folder under public_html will be accessed as yoursubdomain.astahost.com/foldername/ or yoursubdomain.yourdomain.com/foldername/

You can also use the shortcut folder www which basically points to the public_html folder.

what folder should i upload vbulletin to? i have no experience with having to many folders. old hosts had no folders. just upload and go. mind you they were probably hidden.
