Ok so I made this forum for a friend, I started it out at http://www.lyndonstudios.com/sckillers then moved it to http://www.thesckillers.com

I have no problems, however the other admin (The one I made it for), everytime he tries to add a forum or adjust any settings, it reverts the settings file back to the one from lyndonstudios/sckillers

However it does not do this for me. Any ideas?
Go to ACP>Users & Groups>Admin Permissions>**other admin**>Check all boxes in all tabs.
Everything is set to yes.

I just reuploaded the Settings.php file and that fixed things but what happens when he goes to edit something and it doesn't show up.
The settings file is generated from the db everytime a page loads (AFAIK). Uploading it won't help for a long term resolution. Make sure (have a look through phpmyadmin) that the settings are there and set correctly. It wouldn't hurt to change the settings through the admincp yourself as well.
Ok I will try resetting the settings from the ACP and let you know with the result.
Is it CHMOD to 666...?? If it can't be written to it won't update anything.
It's CHMOD 777.

I went into the ACP and the settings were again reset to the LS domain. I have reset them now and I will wait to see what happens with the other admin.
When you uploaded the original forum, did you change the settings in the ACP to the new domain information?

Open the settings page in the ACP, then remove the settings.php file from a file manager. Make the changes, and hit save. This will force MyBB to create the settings file again based on the changes you made.
I just moved all the files from Folder A to Folder B since the domain is an addon domain.

It seems to be working ok now but Ill keep you posted in case something comes up.
