In your index.php file, you need to update the $forumpath.

// ============================================
// Enter the full path to your forum here
// Example: /home/vbadvanced/public_html/forum
// ============================================

$forumpath = '';

This is what mine looks like. just change the bold bit to your directory name

$forumpath = '/home/myadmin/public_html/forum';
