Thanks again for helping.  So, as a temporary measure I should first disable SSL and wait until the forum is embedded (?), and only then do the steps for creating a sub-domain?
I'm sure disabling SSL will come good after a period and your forum will then appear properly embedded, but I don't know how long you'll have to wait.
You say it can't be my main domain, as that will serve the rest of my site/pages.  The thing is that I intend to have the forum embedded/showing in all pages, which is how it is currently (for the offline version anyway).
As Nabble point out you can embed your forum in multiple sites if you want to (and it follows that can also be multiple pages on one site as you say you have locally), but for SSL to work on any page on your live site that entire page must be served from your domain and/or one of its sub-domains.

Technically, it's perfectly possibly to set up Nabble to serve from your main domain, and then arrange things in cPanel to serve your main site from a sub-domain, but that would be an extremely unusual approach as it would appear to visitors that the tail is wagging the dog.
