    You should set up your homepage settings in vbseocp so the / is your forum home without Any redirect.
    Remove forum/forum.php from Breadcrumb

    Ok so I should Uncheck the option force forumroot as hompage? did not fully understand what he meant.. I have done what I think he meant now, uncheched force forumroot as homepage and then added forum.php and forum.php? in the list. I entered my website but nothing has changed.
