URL Issue

[amplify3]

When I Installed the Vanilla Forum to my site, whenever I goto it, it brings up an extra URL: http://sitename.com/home/username/public_html/sitename.com/Community/settings/ and it's supposed to be http://sitename.com/Community/settings/ but, it's not, and I don't like it. I have no idea how to fix it. I've even asked team members and they have no idea.

x10 didn't code that forum.

You might need to try those that did

I then asked on the Vanilla Forum after this post (And it was useless).

When I Installed the Vanilla Forum to my site

Manually installed, or via cPanel auto installer?

Yeah yuck, that looks bad. Paths issue.
I can't imagine an auto installer doing that.

and it's supposed to be http://sitename.com/Community/settings/

I've not used that forum (I use SMF) but I'd get into phpMyAdmin and check all the URL paths in the data base are all correct. (let me know if you need more info on how to do that)

The folder at >>> sitename.com/Community/settings

Does it have a "config.php" or "settings.php" or something like that?

SMF has "settings.php" where a few paths and the data base name, password need to spot on correct.

Over all I'd say it's a path issue in either the data base, or something in the /settings/ folder.

edit: Might be nothing, but I'd go all lower case on "community" as well.

I switched to Flarum, everything is fine.

It was through CPanel.
