Re: online forum

You don't need to be a programmer to set up a forum. You just need to know how to install web-based software (but don't worry, it comes with instructions.)

Re: online forum

If your web host is providing you with cpanel then you may be able to install a forum from there since it is automated. But if they dont the all you need to do is download the type of board you want to use then just follow the instructions. It isn't all so difficult. It is basically editing the config file. and changing permissions for files on the server.

Well good luck.
