RE: [PHP] Looking for a forum

There are a huge number of forums at php.resourceindex.com

These range from fairly basic forums such as venomboard to more complex forums such as 
phpbb

Hi,
I'm looking for some forum script, a bit like this:

Can anyone post a link to something useful?

RE: [PHP] Looking for a forum

2002-09-26 Thread Sear, Mick 

I went through a load of forum systems recently that I found on
www.hotscripts.com, but none of them had what I wanted - In the end, I used
the bare-bones forum system in 'PHP  MySQL Web Development' by Welling and
Thomson and added:

- My own existing login system (I was integrating forums into a larger
project)
- My own templating system
- Separate forums
- A bunch of other functions such as 'who's online', #topics, #posts, last
post, last user to post, etc.

In the end, after spending nearly 2 weeks fiddling around trying to work out
why people use variables like $a, $b and $c and never comment their code, I
managed to get my system running smoothly with no 'workarounds' to
incorporate complex systems.  I'm really happy with the end result, and I'd
recommend starting from the bottom up rather than stripping out the
unnecessary code from other projects.  

If you only need a forum and want a fully-featured solution, I'd recommend
phpBB from those I looked at.

Mick

I know a couple of webmasters who are using and like 

http://www.phpbb.com/

I've never used any bb systems to say one way or another. Certainly 
easy to install.

I set up phpBB on my company web site. It was easy to set up and has all
the features you could want.
