Moving the Forum Directory

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible (and if so, how) to move the forum directory to another directory that is restricted?  I have a portion of my site that is in a restricted directory and I would like it to include forums.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thank You,
-Eric

Should be pretty simple:

1. Move the “forum/” directory and all its content to the new location

2. Edit the “pm_inc.php” file and make sure the path to the “pm” directory is correct

3. In the pM Control Panel, go to ‘Weblog Management’ and edit each of your forums to update the path/URL to reflect the new location


I think that should cover it.
