Can someone please help me find a board for my site? I would use IP Board, but it's really expensive. I don't want a free forum hosting place or w/e that places ads on your site and junk, just the actual installation for the board on my own hosting (such as phpBB or SMF). Help please? Thanks, TonicX57
If you're looking for a "free" solution then I'd go with SMF. I've personally been using it for a few years. If you have any questions or anything feel free hit me up, I'll help out where I can.
SMF or phpBB gmv I would say old school IPB 1.3, but I don't believe your allowed to use that anymore for free, and its security vulnerabilities are retarded.
The last board I was running with IPB 1.3 got hacked so I'd stay away from that if possible. lol SMF just recently released 2.0 Beta and seems to have a lot of new features but if your looking for a stable release I'd go with v1.1.5.
mhmm, you have to do a a lot of work to get 1.3 to work 100% without a huge amount of security vulnerabilities. On the other hand, it has some of the best mod selections of any forum board =P and it was damn simple to skin and code.
