Index.php convert to Forums.php ?

[Sirchade]

Hi again guys,

I've installed Xenforo in my main folder and people who visits my internet site come across with the home page of forums. I want to change home page of forum, I mean; index.php which is present to forums.php. How could I do this?

Thanks for help.

Changing the name of that file requires modifying the code which is less than ideal. Consider using a .htaccess file instead:

On Apache servers you can create a file named ".htaccess" and put it in a web directory. Inside of the file you can add this rule to define the index file for that directory:

DirectoryIndex filename.html

The index file will be used when no file is named in the URL, such as:

http://www.yoursite.com/
