XF 2.1 How to make domain name land users on XF homepage?

[tourmeister]

When I installed my forum, I put it in /public_html/forums because that was how I had my vB install setup.

Apparently, XF cannot generate a homepage that exists outside the /forums file structure.

I created a home page with XF on my password protected test forum to experiment.

This https://www.twtex.com/testforums/ lands me on the homepage, but I would prefer that this https://www.twtex.com/ land me on the homepage.

Also, this https://www.twtex.com/testforums/forums/ lands me on the forum page, but I would prefer that this https://www.twtex.com/testforums/ land me on the forums page.

Is that possible without having to move the my live forum from /public_html/forums/ to just /public_html/ ?

Or, am I stuck with the odd URLs if I want to keep the XF in /forums?

If I do keep XF in /forums, how to I redirect users from https://www.twtex.com/ to the live homepage https://www.twtex.com/forums/index.php?pages/home/?

Pretty sure you gotta ditch the directory to get what you're after but I'm no expert. There may be an htaccess rule or something for you.
