phpBB is an Internet forum package written in PHP. With phpBB, there’s no need to write any code and the database experience needed is minimal, making it very easy to install. To setup phpBB, you must download the current release either as a zip file or a tarball. Uncompress it in your web server’s directory and once done, you must point to the database software that will handle the data. An install script guides you through the rest of the installation. If you have Fantastico available on your server, then it’s even simpler with a 3-click process. Setting it up is as easy as installing it. Adding sections, posts, managing members and other tasks are done by modifying appropriate menus in the administration panel.
