'/home/user/public_html/forum'
It must match the real path to these wwwboard items:
passwd.txt
data.txt
messages/
faq.html
index.html
If you have these settings:
$mesgdir =3D 'messages';
$datafile =3D 'data.txt';
$mesgfile =3D 'index.html';
$faqfile =3D 'faq.html';
$ext =3D 'html';
The relevant files need permissions of:
=2Drw-rw-rw- data.txt
=2Drw-r--r-- faq.html
=2Drw-rw-rw- index.html
drwxrwxrwx messages
=2Drw-rw-rw- passwd.txt
$baseurl then sets the public location of the board as a http:// address.
