Ok i have a quick question

lets say
i have phpbb on http://www.site.com/forums/ [nofollow]
where would i upload SMF so that when i upgrade it goes to http://www.site.com/forums/ [nofollow]

do i just upload up to the same folder as phpbb is in, and than convert?
or do i upload it to a differant folder and convert and it magically goes into the right folder?

or am i completely off track

its a very nice tutorial, how ever it didn't answer my question

BoD

ok i just reread my question and it seems i have phrased it very badly

sorry about that
Thank you jerm, that did answer the question i asked, but not meant

Ive figured out the questions how ever i have one more question

I try converting phpbb to smf but i run into the following problems

1) i goto the conversion page in the smf folder
smf=http://www.site.com/forums/smf
phpbb=http://www.site.com/forums/

2) i input the right data (in the conversion.php in the smf base folder
3) it pulls me over to the installer for smf (i follow this through)

after that it installs SMF to the directory where SMF was, not where php was, and it doesn't convert any data across
basically a clean install

Could you please tell me where i go wrong, or if im using the wrong version of the converter or anything bad

(i will link to the right site if that helps)
