Is invision power board free? :S

Expand Post »
I saw somewhere that invision power board is free unless you want technical support, but on the website i can't find anywhere to download a free copy.

Am i right, if so where can i get a free copy of ipb from?

Thanks

I have an invisionfree forum.. and also you can choose from 100's of free skins once you have your board.. just go to my site, and click on 'Forum' to take a look... it is risk free and you get a lot of bandwidth and disk space. also you will be listed in the invision directory! the link to get your own free forum is at the bottom of my forum.. in the copyright strip....

It's not free anymore sadly, though a link that is still alive contains version 1.2f, I believe, can be found here:

Yeah they just recently blanked themselves from the free forum market. I believe they had it planned all along.

If phpBB ever gets 2.2 finished, it will be serious competition for any forum software free or otherwise but god only knows when that will happen. They are severely overworked and under paid.

It seems Invision has changed from free to commercial as stated. They also have some embedded code in order to easily shut down forum which are not licensed so beware. Older versions of invision I believe are not supported nor downloadable.

Well... now there is a version available at invision's official site which has encrypted code and will let you have 1000 threads / 5000 posts! but I would NOT recommend it! Instead I would suggest that you use phpBB [phpbb.de is a prehacked version] or vB [if you can afford it, it's the best investment that you'll ever make].

Good Luck!

Well it depends on what you are looking for there are alot of features in IPB which are better than what VB offers, multi moderation, inline moderation and other stuff. At the end of the day it comes down to personal preference, on one forum I use IPB and on the other we have VB I love both of them but because I have been with IPB for a long time I find that easier and more friendly to use.
