I want a home page... so should I put www.website.com/forum as my forum URL when installing?
Make a sub folder in your FTP called forum and drag the MyBB files in there then install it.

That may work .. dependant on your ftp client .. a better idea would be to
use the ftp command MKD <folder name> then use the STOR command
Im seeing all these tutorial videos and they are creating mysql databases, not FTP's

ugh this is frustrating

If it helps.... Im using hostgator
Make a directory, and then install your board to it. For example:

You made the directory 'forums'. Place all the MyBB files in there, and then install like normal. Your board will be installed to "example.com/forums". Your homepage can then be in the root directory of your folder (Commonly is "public_html", additional domains on cPanel would be "public_html/domain2.com").

Let me know if you need further assistance.
