There should be a domain manager area if not what is your forum url and I will work on getting it added.

We currently don't support subdomains.
It has to be a .com .net .org .info site
Domains are cheap under $10 a year from places such as godaddy.com

They bought a domain and installed mybb with it.
What we can do is tie a domain name to a forum. So if you own
www.myforum.com you can tie that your board here and make it the primary domain to access your forum.

So your going to buy a domain name name for your forum?Then you install mybb on it and then what do you do?I don't understand it.So lets say I have example.com and I have example.createmybb3.com what do I do?All I understand is the following:
1.Buy a domain name for it
2.Install mybb on it
What else?

Well for you all you would do is buy the domain.
Then in the CreateMyBB admin area under Domain Manager you would add your domain.
And that will allow you to access your forum using the domain you bought.
