Mercifull Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Its hosted by a free crappy host. You cant do any of the things that you want except change people to MODS which is done in the admin panel.

Mercifull Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 phpBB IS free. But you'll need to upload and install it yourself to a real web host not one of the free places that all you need to do is fill out a few fields in a form to auto-generate it.

Mercifull Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 You cannot add ANY modifications to any of the free hosted forum providers. You will have to install it yourself if you want full customizability. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

DaN Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 anyone serious about running a forum will install their own. The preinstalled free options do not allow you to backup the database meaning your stuck with them forever. ~Dan64AuSince 27 Aug 2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashozzy2 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 invisionfree are one of the best free hosts out there, I use them and have never had any problems, saying that im not bothered about mods though, people should just learn to spell. To add forums go into your admin control pannel, and add a category then add forums and sub forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 You can actually 'mod' the Invisionfree forums. http://support.invisionfree.com/index.php?showforum=138 :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
