Forum on your own website?

Dawid
Was wondering if there was a way of getting this type of forum on ones own website. I've seen this type of forum on many websites so I'm assuming its widely used. Its a forum for Allumni of my old College and so the topic would'nt really fit in here. Thanks a lot

It's called invision board. And yes, I think you can, although I'm not hosted yet. In the demo cpanel you can click on Addon Scripts, and then select invision board. And then it will install itself automatically, I guess smile.gif

There are many message board (free) available and they are easy to install and operate enough for a Dummy.
Just go to www.hotscripts.com and in php scripts you will find a huge veriety of message board scripts.
Most famous are Vbulletin, Invision Boards, WOWBB, PHPBB.

    website for our members so we can show member character stats, announce raids and have a forum so we
    can all leave messages for each other and discuss strategy and levelling tips. I know there are
    templates available and I'm wondering if it would be just as easy to use one of the premade

    to go to, but I can't seem to find any about how to make a website that people will hate and try
    to run away from, so here are some pointers for those who are trying to make the worst website:
    Step one: COLORS Be sure to use a vivid and bright background color, and a non-noticeable text
    color. Nothing wakes people wake up more than a florescent yellow background with white text. Make
    people work to try to read your website. After all, you have some great content...

  21. Fp2003 - Tables - Hope this is the right forum...? (7)
    Hi, I have designed a page within a table - three columns all adding up to 100% (no fixed pixel
    column widths). The thing is that when I previously previewed it in other browsers it showed the
    whole page - a but squashed, but everything was in the window without having to scroll horizontaly.
    I made some adjustments without interfering with column widths, but now previews require horizontal
    scrolling to view the page. Previously the text links in the centre column would wrap to cater for
    the smaller browser size, but not now. Also, at the foot of the page there is a b...
  22. How To Build A Good Website - (2)
    First, have a good color is important. You don't want people say "Ow!!! My
    eyes!!! where's the X button????" So try not to use colors like light green, yellow.
    Second, have some content. Will you like a site just with a title? Updated it AT LEAST once a
    month. Third, try not to put "too much" image on the homepage. Otherwise, if they come from a
    search engion, they will probley want to find something that they want. If that takes too long,
    they'll leave. Fourth, having a portal is good if you have a forum. If you are using something...
  23. Image Not Taking The Right Size In Web Page - An image is correct when designed, but not when put in a website (1)
    When trying to make a web page with a GIF image on it which runs a coloured bar along the top and a
    coloured curve along the side, I come across the weird thing that, when I put the image on a web
    site, it does not take in the whole top and does not run from top to bottom completely. The image is
    made in Adobe Photoshop at a resolution of 1024X768 pixela and looks correct , ie. the horizontal
    bit runs completely from left to righ and the vertical bit completely from topright to bottom right,

  24. Multiple Forum Skins - To have, or not to have? (6)

    here feel about having multiple skins? I think just having the default skins that come with the
    forum and maybe one or two added on that match the style of the forum a little better, but what do
    you think? Should I have a dark/light added on, in addition to the default skins? and should I
    leave the forum default as one of the included skins? or something that fits in with my idea of what
    the forum looks like a little better? thanks for your opinions /smile.gif" style="vert...
