Well i Got my forums working again however. I was wondering if there is any way to have a fast reply option with these pbpbb forums. I know I have seen it in other forums but i think they were ipb. Not sure though. Thanks in advance.

Topic title and description are VERY important. Edited.
No I don't think there is anything on PHPBB for that. It doesn't come standard and I searched through the mods on phpbb.com but unless someone else made them somewhere else I don't think you can. Sorry.
Im sorry i dint really understand that. So i can download somthing called punbb which is like a skin? or mod thingy ? that will allow fast reply? Or are you talking about an entirely differnt type of message board?
I did a search on google and found it. It is a whole new forum all together. http://www.punbb.org/ I haven't heard of it before but it looks sort of like phpbb. I might have to try it out and see just how well it works. From first looks though it doesn't strike me as anything real fancy. They are asking for money. lol The news shows that they have some major sequrity bugs as well.
ouch that would be the day when i pay to make my self easier to hack lol hmmm There really must be some way to make a fast reply option i dont see how somthing like phpbb would not have one and let a competitor like ipb have one. Makes no sense.
Who knows? They just might put up an option like that in the next version... I'd really like a Fast reply for PHPBB too, since I have my own forums made with that... I'd get IPB myself, but I don't want it to be remotely hosted and I don't want to pay for it. Other kinds of forums have the Fast reply immediately, and you don't have to click anything for the Fast reply to appear. Hmm, I guess we have to live with this for now, or just transfer to a new forum maker...
hey, some tell me to go to phpbbhack or what I forget the sitem but something like that, just search the actual link in google and you will find it.
With that you can do almost everything in phpbb, well I have never try it so I don't know yet.
By the way, yeah my forum members just got angry so much to me saying to turn fast reply on, but I just reply with my curent forum (phpbb) I cannot... some run from my forums...
I thought IPB has features like that, but after forumer.com use phpbb other than IPB like before... well I can do nothing but to follow. But, maybe I can set up a new forum in Trap17 using phpbb. Maybe I'll try after I get sufficient credits.
Phpbb is updating every single minute, I just can't catch up its development, it's so fast even faster than php development I think. Not to mention, it's not easy to catch up php development too.
I haven't seen the new version of phpbb (or maybe it's already old), but it is promising I think. Maybe they will have fast reply now not realing on phpbbhacks anymore...
As the name implies, I think it would be a good idea to giving those who aren't really "mod
savvy" a chance to look at what phpBB's could look like with some regular mods installed. If
this thread is innappropriate I'll be glad to delete it away or rather, I give permission to
have it deleted if it isn't appropriate....
I am getting very frustrated as I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install phpbb
completely. I've uploaded all the files using FTPSmart. I think clicked on the install.php
fine, and was taken to the screen where I fill everything out. It says I successfully did all that:
Your admin username has been created. At this point your basic installation is complete. You will
now be taken to a screen which will allow you to administer your new installation. Please be sure to
check the General Configuration details and make any required changes. Thank you for ch...
Hello! I was just wondering how I go about installing the phpbb forum on my site. I assume I go
somewhere from the CPanel? I think someone told me that the CPanel has something that installs it
for me automatically. Thank you!...

Ok, i am hosted here and i am trying to get the phpBB2 forums installed on my site. I have made a

A Few Things
- phpbb question as well as .zip question (4)
First of all, I was wondering how i could go about creating a log-in section, and using the phpbb
logins (forum names and passwords) and making it protect a certain area of my site, as i would hate
to have 2 different logins for the forum and the site... basically, im looking for something that
allows you to log into the forum without going to the forum, and when ur logged in on the forum, it
also allows you to go to a different area, outside of the forum. Secondly, is it possible to
create a .zip file with php directly on the hosting server?...

would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: I talked to a friend about the subject and he said i had to
enter something after phpbb_ in the prefix for data tables or something, so then it came up with a
file i had to download and ftp to the forum. So once i did that, i tried the forum ...

I have a phpbb running under the fantastico in my cpanel. The mySQL file is 5+megs. What size is
considered typical? Do I have to worry about the size at all? Will the application run any faster
if the forum is 'pruned'? Backups are performed weekly so I am not concerned about loss of
data. I was just wondering about how efficient the phpbb code is. Will the forum run as quickly if
the database is allowed to enlarge to twice the size? Or should I consider the auto-prune as an
option. Also, is there a way to select which topics get pruned and which ones don'...

Hey, guys. Well recently the website that had previously hosted my phpBB forum went down and I
decided to look for alternatives for my forum hosting. I realized that both www.Trap17.com had it
and the host that my friend has. I have searched through the many topics and posts on this forum
and I still do not entirely understand the installation process of a phpBB forum. Both the
Trap17.com account and my friend's account have Fantastico, Script Libraries and phpBB Bulletin
buttons in the CPanel. I have attempted several times to go directly to one of these and tr...
I think I' ve done everything by the book. It was allowed on the forum ACP, it is allowed by
user, it seems to be allowed on the posting form, the tag list has been added at the ACP, the
preview accepts it , but the posts show the raw tags as part of the post. Is there anything else I
need to do? Does the Admin have to allow it? Is it dis-allowed for the trap17 free hosted accounts?
Your help is appreciated....

I wanted to know if it is possible to add code to phpbb if so how. By adding code I mean adding html
so I could add stuff like affialiates and stuff like that. Thanks for your help. I also wanted to
know if that is allowed before anyone posts an answer, I figured it is if you leave the copyright
because it is open source....
I know how to install phpBB boards but I would like to know how to make them appear in the front

I was wondering, is there any way that allows anyone to post to phpbb? Even all the guests that come
to the board? Is this even a good idea? I'm not sure what kind of things would happen if I did
that. Like would I be facing lots of spam, or is there something that I should be worried about if
I'm going to run my boards that way. Does anyone else have a board open to anyone or have you
tried that before? And if so, how have you found it? I'd like to know what to expect a little
more if I'm going to go about doing that sort of thing. I think it is the be...
