Post Reply? Hello, So I decided I would run some PHP forums under a sub-domain, however have 2 questions on this so far. Sub domain and PHP installation went fine, however: 1. If I want my users to visit some thing like “forums.example.com” or “www.forums.example.com”, how can I do this, atm it can only be setup as www.example.com/forums as I have wordpress setup in the main root of the FTP. 2. I use to see all files in the FTP, however I can only see the favicon.ico and favicon.gif files and the PHP install is telling me to delete the installtion folder. Is it a setting since I installed into root folder to protect the files, is there a way for my ftp login to see all files? I can get to the folders using FireFTP and FileZilla by manually entering the address however I need to know what those folders are called first Thanks!
