I installed bbpress integrated to my wordpress site on a subdomain, the problem I have is the following.

The forum is working in the following way

http://subdomain.mydomain.com/forums

what I want is to make it work like this

http://subdomain.mydomain.com/

What do I need to do for the above, I am a newbie so please excuse my ignorance if it is a quick fix.

Thanks in advance.

you should upload the files to the root of subdomain, instead of a folder called forums.

you can take the content from the folder called forums and put it into subdomain, and change the vaulues in your database using phpmyadmin

hope it helps
