What is your web server? Apache? Nginx?
Uh... create a directory?
it is Ngnix
you want to add a vhost to your configuration. I added a tut link below.

@punkstar of course. You can run as many sites you want on a single VPS within resources included. The easiest and cheapest way would be to use some free webhosting control panel like kloxo-MR.
edit. Disregard my answer regading control panel. I posted it before I saw that you have webserver already installed.
so the vhost is the solution here? I will try the tutorial you gave me thanks a lot for the fast answers
Just make a directory under website root, unless you want to use a different domain.
Yep, that's the solution.
If your "second website" is to be www.website.com/website2, then you would just create a directory in the root of your first site. But if you meant site2.website.com or www.website2.com, then yes, use a new virtual host.
You can do that even on shared hosting.
Setup DNS and your web server.
thats exactly what i mean , well here's more information :
this is my forum link : www.infinite-gaming.ml
that's the main forum . I want to create a second forum on it which will look like : www.infinite-gaming.ml/khk where khk is the second forum. Thats what i want to do.
It'll be a bit difficult to set up two forums in the same public directory. You'd be better doing khk.infinite-gaming.ml as the second forum.
That look interesting . How can i make it like this?
Add another A record to your DNS and then either install a control panel such as Kloxo or modify your Vhosts file as outlined above...
thanks i will try out and i'll report back the results.
hello there, thanks for the replies. i did create another directory and it works as i wanted to. thank for the help guys.
