In preparation for vbseo installation, I created a subdomain for my forums through cpanel on my linux server.

Strangely, the subdomain automatically redirects to the folder path so, for example, my subdomain http://forums.mysite.com redirects to http://www.mysite.com/forums/.

I really would like the subdomain to load the forums files without displaying the forum folders in the URL path.

Someone told me I need to create a custom vhost directive in the http.conf, but that sounds more complicated than it should be. I have deleted and recreated the subdomain multiple times and each time I rename the forums folder before doing so (and then dropping the forum files back into the new subdomain folder. I have had zero success.

Any help would be appreciated!

Do you have an .htaccess file that redirects from the non-www version of the domain name to the www version of the domain name?

If you post your .htaccess file contents I could take a look.
