I was referred by James on getting help with installation of phpBB for my own Message Boards. Here is what he said:

I use PHPBB as my forum. You can download it, get install directions and access to their support forums here: http://www.phpbb.com/

Installing a forum is not an easy task and not one suited for doing via telephone instructions. No two web sites are the same and your host may not support the ancilliary software needed to run PHPBB.

Your first step is to get the technical specs for your web site and then research the forum software available for your platform.

If you want a host that offers forum software preinstalled, check out planetfurry.com. Yyou get a PHPBB forum set up automatically with your account there. They can even transfer your domain name to their server if you already have one.

Hi there, I would like to make an forum and would like help in making on. I would need help in this. Only way for me to get it is by over the phone. My phone number is 410.590.5791 and if you want me to call you please PM me your number and I call you on the steps you took to install the program and to make the forum. Thank you.

What's the nature of the forum? Is there a web page associated with it? Do you want us hosting the web page too?

We need more general details than what you're giving.

There will not be an web site associated with my forum. The Forums Mantra will be for Adults Only and will be for Video Games, Anime,
Sci-Fi, Comics, and Anthromorpic topics and to post pictures of said stuff.

The Name I would Like to call it:

"Hanssen's Ultimate Mega Forum!!!!"

Will there be any cost to host my forum?

You might want to talk to Josh over at the After Dark board as it's adult oriented. Planet Furry's main board is intended to be a PG rated board, and as such, I don't think your forum would be appropriate.

Cheers

I am having problems with the final step of registration, I press on the finish tab and nothing is happening. Can you please tell Josh I need help getting in? Thank you.

My husband Gabriel is the person to speak too. He is the creature of Afterdark and the one who you should be speaking to. Josh is just a member and Admin of Planetfurry not Afterdark. Hikrua was mistaken on who to give you over to, and I am sorry for the inconvenience. But please speak with Gabriel about it he is the best person for the job.
