Hi,

Can somebody help me please...
I search for simple Public Forum which threads can be confirmed from the administrator before they get visible on the web...

I think this option is available in both phpbb & in smf...just choose 'Moderate new threads' & that will solve your problem :)

Use PHPBB, IPB or VB.

vBulletin isn't free and Invision isn't either, as of a couple of months ago :( phpBB is your best free option.

I always use PHPbb and there are tons of mods for it, if you do a search, to add more features to it.

I'll third or fourth (or fifth?) phpBB. The code is a bit messy, but it is extensively proven as a working solution, and there are many mods available (as stated above).

I prefer SMF. For a free product, it has a lot of features compared to PhpBB.

The problem with phpBB is that it's so popular that it draws a lot of interest from hackers.

I've used PHPForumScript - it's quite good, but lacks the PM feature that need.

I have seen a number of forum scripts like phpbb and run them on my system too. But i cannot understand how and how much i can customize such forums. Can someone tell me of any website where such forms have been used?

Regards.
