Hey all-

So what folder am I supposed to put the smf download into?  No matter what I put, it says 'invalid directory' unless I choose the root directory, but then I can't find it.  I wanted something like abc.com/forum.  Thanks.

Thanks michael-

I'm not sure what you mean by 'manually' - I'm using whatever the thing is that took the place of Fantastico (how's that for a techie explanation?).  With the old CP when I clicked to download SMF from Fantastico, a box popped up and all I had to do was put in /forum and the correct directory (abc.com/forum) magically appeared in the file manager.

Now I get 2 choices: root directory or a blank box.  If I click 'root directory' it downloads, but I can't find it.  If I type in any combination of http or ftp urls in the blank box it says 'invalid directory (or something like that) and won't download.
         

 I'll go back and try again with your folder suggestion.  Thanks again.

You may want to contact support at support@lunarpages.com or support.lunarpages.com and advise that you want to install SMF into the forum folder.

Be sure to include the domain name/primary domain and link to this forum page , and we can then further look into this.

Ooops - forgot to update the thread.   

LP responded to the ticket super fast (thanks!)  and they told me I needed to put "forum" (no quotes) in the box.  No dashes, slashes or anything.  So, if your website is lunarpages.com and you wanted your forum to be called lunartalk, you would type in lunartalk in the box.
