Make a custom page and name it index. Rename your index.php (the forums) to forums.php.

Then add your content inside the custom page. Or create a global template in ACP and then eval it in the new index.php along with header and footer.
1. Rename index.php to forums.php

2. Create a new file and name it index.php

3. Paste the following script into it..

Code
<?php

define('IN_MYBB', 1); require "./global.php";

add_breadcrumb("Title here", "somename.php");

eval("\$headerinclude = \"".$templates->get("headerinclude")."\";");
eval("\$header = \"".$templates->get("header")."\";");
eval("\$footer = \"".$templates->get("footer")."\";");

output_page($headerinclude);
output_page($header);
output_page($footer);

?>

That will create a page with no body.

4. Go to ACP > Templates > Global Templates and create a new template named custompage

5. Put the content you want inside that template, you will need to know HTML to format it properly.

6. Update your index.php with the "custompage" template.

Code
<?php

define('IN_MYBB', 1); require "./global.php";

add_breadcrumb("Title here", "somename.php");

eval("\$headerinclude = \"".$templates->get("headerinclude")."\";");
eval("\$header = \"".$templates->get("header")."\";");
eval("\$custompage = \"".$templates->get("custompage")."\";");
eval("\$footer = \"".$templates->get("footer")."\";");

output_page($headerinclude);
output_page($header);
output_page($custompage);
output_page($footer);

?>

Now, it will have your content.
