Never mind...
I found the admin/domain manager/ use this ( SMF ) guide link.

/> Excellent step by step guide !
Got through the steps at GoDaddy and now just need to wait about
a day and come back and try to change over the url on the forum
to the domain name.

Guess I do have a few questions.. support
1) Once I get the domain successfully parked within my forum..
That will not actually change the forum's present url in the
address bar to show the new domain name, right ?
2) But when the new domain name is used ( after parked ), it
will auto direct folks to the forum, right ?
3) When I get ready to submit the forum info to search
engines.. Will I want to submit the new domain name, and or
both.. , the domain and the present
gofunrewards.createaforum.com url ??

Both your old and new forum url will work and display the same
content. Any links that you post that points to your old forum
url, you should change it to the new url. When you submit your
forum to search engines, you should submit the new url because
that's the one that will be displayed in search results, making
your forum look more professional.
