I would like to know what they did to create this "community." I went to phpbb creating communities and even downloaded it but only got a "read me." In which case I have no clue what to do with "read me's." The reason I would like to know is because I want to create something like this but it would be talking about a different subject, I am working on my game website but clearly it will not be done for months to come. Alright, Have a Good Day everyone, Bye.

Umm... It's not a free thing first of all. (right?) I don't know anything past that. Very Happy

phpBB is free. To install it, you need a website that supports PHP and SQL.

If you have both of those, you just need to upload the files and there's an /install directory, it will walk you through it step-by-step.

If you don't have PHP and SQL, you're out of luck. Confused

(I'm not sure if you need mySQL or if it also accepts postgreSQL. I've only done it with mySQL.)
