A million thanks to the OP for his remarkably clear tutorial. I'm not even a newbie when it comes to forums - I'm a prebie, with wet dreams of the day when I'll grow to be a newbie - so I have a totally uninformed question about databases. Does the database come as part of the various forum softwares or do you need to choose and set up your database separately?

HungryJoe:
To answer your question, you webhost needs to have the database software accessible for you, and under free types of webhosting accounts, the amount of databases you can have at any one time is limited. AstaHost here does have mySQL and PHP, so you should have no trouble at all setting up forum software such as phpBB etc. Good luck. |

although id suggest AEF (http://www.anelectron.com)
i also like myBB and phpbb3 is pretty cool. im gonna start on a forum for my site once ive actually finished my site, lol, it wouldnt take that long to get the forum up, just making a design. making a whole new theme for a forum from scratch seems pretty hard. mybb says its easy but then again they all do. |

In that case the best free forum software would be PhpBB3 located at: create forum
It is a lot like vBulletin and I do mean a lot like it! At one time it was a reverse engineered clone of vBulletin and they were ordered to take out any and all vBulletin coding. Yet, it still remains one of the more impressive free forum softwares available - in my opinion. It's like the poor man's vBulletin, when you want the best but can't afford it - then get the next best thing (they even have a vBulletin skin available.) |
