HI could someone help me out here?

I have a forum on my current domain, but I want to take all that to a new one hosted in the same hosting (different domain) How do I do that? Just copy the files from one side to another?

That's pretty simple to do, just get your webhost to change the domain name on your account via whm, and it should be done in a few seconds (make sure your current domain is pointing to the correct dns servers)

If you your saying that you want a forum as a domain name instead of what you have now, you would need to transfer the files to the account you made for that domain name...

good luck

well I want to have the 2 domains working. But I want to have the same forums on the new one.

Example: I have www.planetdiaz.com and I have a new domain like ex: www.mysite.com/forums

those forums I want it to be the same as my first domain (but independent)

makes more sense?

do you want both domains connected to the same forum? you could use the addon domain option if provided by your host

OH k...you can try exporting the forum's database, and then importing it when installing the new forum on the new domain.
