I'm looking to setup a PHP forum for my website, but don't know which one to go for? Any free one that is good (in your opinion)? Thanks

phpbb- best free open source forum
SMF- free

\i suggest you phpbb

Use search engine to find more "php forum software"

php-nuke: also free


http://www.phpnuke.org

PHP-Nuke is not forum!!! It is content management system that contains forum also. I think Gurluver asking about stand-alone forum software. But if you need cms'es my suggestions: Mambo/joomla, Php-Fussion, PHP-nuke

By the way fusion is realy easy to learn

Lol, yeah, and what about VBulletin or IPB?

yes, of corse! i forgot about them. Maybe b'cause the are not free ? Ilike open source products, but sorry, this was my mistake, i foorgot about IPB and VBulletin

Oh sry guys i didnt even read what he posted. :lol: :lol:

In that case i go for vbulletin since i have been using it for a quite a long time.

I think that you should install the one from cpanel i think that it is phpbb

Or you could use the ones that are already there in Fantastico.

thanks guys . I used to use phpbb n ipb (when they were free), haven't been admin-ing forums for quiet sometimes, and i thought there might be some new forums, but it looks like nothing much changed ^.^
i think i'll stick with phpbb like before.
