    i had my vbulletin forum installed.. and im not sure but when i try to install wordpress in my cpanel with fantistico it says the installation cannot be completed..

    i want my sites home page to be a wordpress blog..

    but when i type it in, it goes straight to my forum..

    i want it set so i can type in my domain and goes to my blog, then where i put just /forums on end and goes to my forum..

    the message told me i had to do something with the files.. in public_html but i dont know what to do..

    Put your forums into a folder in public_html, make sure the .htaccess goes in too. ( forum )

    Then in fantastico - dont enter anything in " what directory to install to " - You will see what i mean, there is also a note regarding this under it.
