As the title says, what do I need in order to move my forums from /forums to the main public_html folder?
I believe you just move all the files from /forums to /public_html

Then look find inc/settings.php

And edit this line: $settings['bburl']
Remove the "/forums" on it.
Is that all? I seem to be having some issues still. Do I have to change anything else?

What issuse do you have, you have to be more specific Smile Did you changed your cookie settings?
I don't think the cookies settings require changing...
Usually that's only necessary if you were changing domains, like forums.myboard.com to just myboard.com

What's your board? What's are the problems?
They are required because you won't be able to login if you don't change them.
but if the link: myboard.com/forums and myboard.com both use the same cookies setting: .myboard.com

It shouldn't make a difference, because it wasn't a subdomain causing the cookie interference, just a trailing folder.

But the OP can check, I've never seen a cookie setting use .myboard.com/forums
No, but there's a cookie path setting too that needs to be changed from /forums to /
