    Re: some help with vb forum

    Upload the vB folder into public_html. If you want the forum in the root of your domain, upload only the contents of the vb folder and not the folder itself.

    The information is:
    Server name: localhost
    SQL Username: Create this in cpanel
    SQL Password: Same as above
    SQL DB Name: cPanel also

    Also, be sure you actually bought vB forum from http://www.vbulletin.com/ and didn't get it any other way. We strictly prohibit nulled software and you will receive a permanent suspension if our scanners detect an unlicensed vB installation.

    Edit: Well, see Livewire's post below.

    First and foremost, make sure it's a legal version. That's just common sense.

    Wait...It wasn't? It was missing the license #?! The license number that's always there when it's downloaded legitimately?!?!?!
