I have an account setup as a poster site, but since it's not that much of a drain, I moved my website also to that same server using an added domain pointed to a subdirectory. I installed phpBB from the cPanel to a root directory (it would not let me put into the same directory as my website is in). Now I can't seem to reference it from my website, only the poster site, which are two completely different entities. Is there a way to get phpBB to be able to be referenced by my website?

Example:
posters.com (not the real domain) root directory
shadowwindmanor.com - installed and points to root/themanor
phpbb was installed into root/themanor2

I tried moving phpBB manually from themanor2 to the themanor dir, but then got all kinds of 404 errors
