how do i make my forum the home page

Its by default? Just make sure you don't have PORTAL activated.

I think he is asking about making his /forum/ to its main page like;
http://yourdomain.com/forum/
to
http://yourdomain.com/

when any one visits /forum/ URL.

If you have uploaded your forum to a directory then you have to upload the forum to the root directory and set up a redirect, like this

RedirectMatch ^/forum/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1

If the forum is on the domain root then just create an .htaccess file and put:

DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.htm index.html

isnt their a plugin

For moving your forum files? No. You can either move them via FTP or via SSH; I recommend the latter as it will be much faster but you'll need SSH access to your server and know how to use a terminal.
