Adding a forum to my site [500K Monthly users]

Hey,


I'm the owner of https://www.coc-servers.com/


Also http://aurity.io/ is mine.


I now want to combine both sites to one...So the Forum is used a lot more. (The forum will have some good stuff aswell.)


Does anyone have an idea how to do this? (Like finding a good way to connect/combine them together?)


Thanks for any help!
Hello, I can build forums for you if you wish, It's simple just you need patience.
You waste your time with a person that doesn't even want you there.

Well, I do have a forum already setted up, with some members.


What I'm looking for is combining both of my sites to one, so the forum gets much more active.


Thanks

In what way do you exactly want to combine?
Have it embedded within or just port the entire thing over?

Well, i want to have the forum at the coc-server website aswell.


I just don't know how exactly tho.
If you want to keep the forum on one website and just send the traffic from the other website to the forum, one way you could do it is maybe setup a subdomain forum.website.com and redirect it to the address of the forum you already have set up?

Yeah, but I'd like to keep the current (coc-servers) website. I'm more looking for a good way to integrate my forum into it. (As I have over 500K monthly users...There's a lot of potential for a forum.)


Thanks
Why not download the database and files, upload the db to the coc server and the files to another folder(let's say /forums) then fix the shit in the config file(if mybb fix the settings file also for the domain).
After that, go to the forums domain and make it redirect to the coc website.
Note I don't know how to do anything but download the db/file and upload them lol.
I don't know sit about domains other than typing them in xD
But I'll still help if I can

Yeah, but I need an exact idea of the design (How exactly I will connect the forum with the current website.)


That's the problem I'm looking to solve haha


Thanks for any help!
Almost like a repost correct
I apologize to everyone truly. I didn't do what I did just for the hell of it. Family needed food and a roof. 
Wait, COC private servers are a thing!? First I have heard of it

I'm going to call the coc website A and the forum website B.

Download the files AND database from site B.
Upload files from site B to site A server(ftp / file manager). I suggest inside a folder called forum(or close to that)
Now after that, you want to IMPORT site B database to site A.
I can help with this part I know how to do that (lol)
Now after that's all up(and running good) [test it]
redirect site B to site A (ex: siteA/forums).

Again, I can help with the exporting/importing of the database and getting the files and uploading them and helping you make sure the forum works.
