Thanks, but there are no steps to do this.

I need help for dummies like me who do not know how to edit the header or even get to the root folder.  I've got a growing website doing very well and need a little help.

I'd like to get rid of the createmybb part of the address to just .com

Again, thanks for any help.

To edit your header go to Admin CP > Templates and Style > Templates > Header Templates > Header.

For the second part of your question you'll need to purchase your own domain address and then Jon should be able to help.

For the domains yeah there is a domain manager link in the admincp you can buy a domain then park it on your forum.

Ok. I went to the domain manager, followed the steps and in step 2 parked the domain and verified it and this came up

Welcome to zigbeenuthouse.com 

This Web page is parked for FREE, courtesy of GoDaddy.com.

I bought this domain from GoDaddy last week to launch my website.  Am I moving in right direction here?
