You can now get here from forums.bpsite.co.uk - as well as the existing url ( www.bpsite.co.uk/forums ).
Why? Because I can. And because it allows me to type "fo" in the address bar and come here.

If you're happy enough with the existing URL you don't need to change - infact, it's only a redirect anyway, so you're still actually using the old one, it just means a bit less typing.

SS, then what happened to your website that was at the root?

Nothing has happened to it?

Here's how things are setup:

www.bpsite.co.uk -> Easily -> HTML/meta-redirect to www.hybridchill.com/bpsite/

forums.bpsite.co.uk -> CfD -> browser-relocate to www.bpsite.co.uk/forums/

web.bpsite.co.uk -> CfD -> browser-relocate to www.hybridchill.com/bpsite/

Where Easily = hosts bpsite.co.uk server (PHP), and CfD = hosts hybridchill.com server (CF).

I can't change the www.bpsite.co.uk because that'll screw up other stuff that needs to stay on Easily - and that other stuff is also why I setup the forums sub-domain, because if I type 'bp' I don't get the forums at the top.
