If you can login:
Enter your
ACP -> Configuration -> General Configuration and change your
Board URL to
http://fuziongaming.net/forums - this will solve the stylesheets issues and
Board Name 30 to whatever you like your board to be named.
While under General Configuration set the following:
Cookie Domain from 30 to blank
Cookie Path from 30 to /forums/
Cookie Prefix from 30 to blank
Now save return to the main Settings list and enter Server and Optimization Options:
Set Enable XMLHttp request features? to Yes.
If you can't login:
Run the following SQL queries
UPDATE `chosenPrefix_settings` SET `value` = 'http://fuziongaming.net/forums' WHERE `sid` = '35';
UPDATE `chosenPrefix_settings` SET `value` = '' WHERE `sid` IN (42, 44);
UPDATE `chosenPrefix_settings` SET `value` = '/forums/' WHERE `sid`= '43';
UPDATE `chosenPrefix_settings` SET `value` = '1' WHERE `sid` = '170';
replace
chosenPrefix with the prefix you have chosen for MyBB's tables...
...and delete
settings.php from the
/inc folder. It will regenerate when you visit your board again.
Well, it's easy to notice that all your settings got their value changed to
30. I'm quite sure it's because of the weird query, instead of:
$db->query('UPDATE '.TABLE_PREFIX.'settings maxnamelength SET value=30');
it should have been:
$db->query('UPDATE '.TABLE_PREFIX.'settings SET maxnamelength=30');
Now you have to manually revert your settings in ACP, unfortunately. Unless you have a backup of them.

Not that it matters now, but it should have been:
$db->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "settings SET value=30 WHERE name='maxnamelength'");
But D6 is right, you'll need to restore your settings manually or through a backup.

ok what do you put for the chosen prefix im not quite sure what the prefix for mybb's tables is is there a way to check through like the ftp or is there a way to change this through the ftp
You'll need to have access to phpMyAdmin or some other shell to run those queries.

ok i did it in php my admin but it did nothing it changed it but it still is the same way
everything in the value field has been changed to 30 -_- this is ridiculous why would it all of a sudden happen i put that code in that that guy told me to put in about a month ago why would this start to happen now
I'm not sure why it would happen after all this time, but it is clearly what has happened.
The steps you were given were to restore cookie settings in case you couldn't log in the ACP . . . so let's start there.
Can you log in to ACP?

To find out your tables prefix, enter in
/inc and open
config.php. You should find:
$config['database']['table_prefix']
This tells you your prefix. Afterwards replace the chosenPrefix from the queries I posted earlier with this value.

fuziongaming.net/forums/30/index.php for some reason that 30 is in there if i can fix that then i can fix alot more
