Can I change my Forum Address??

by createwings on Sun May 18, 2008 12:56 pm

I just created a new forum and didn't realize I could pick part of the address... well by accident I picked

heaven.com... and I wanted forumotion.com... this is not a religious forum and I want it to be a general address...

Can this be changed with out deleting the forum... if so can someone help me...

I don't want to subscribe under a new email to do this since my email address is connected to my business name and I want to keep it that way...

Thank you!

You've obviously sorted this the hard way, but for reference you can make the change you wanted to in the Admin panel.

Go to admin>general>configuration>forum address and go to Orde by Alphabetical Name. From the 12 drop-down sections, choose the url format required i.e. .forumotion.com under the 'F' heading, then click OK. You should obviously consider a mass email to all members in advance, so they know the new addy.
