OK, here is my predicament, I know I've posted this before, but... This time I have tried both forums... I am trying to decide between IPB and phpBB. Here is what I want for my forum from each software... I like the ease of use, and simplistic design of phpBB. I like the many feature of IPB, such as changing rankm colors, and the rank masking system for forum permissions. I also want three of the mods I currently have on my forums, the Army System, IBPro Arcade, and D2-Shoutbox, I know phpBB has an Arcade mod, and a Shoutbox, but frankly they both need some work and are currently crappy. I also like the theme of IPB. But the IPB 2.x is not yet ported to PHP-Nuke, like 1.x is.. So, what is your input based on what I said about each individual software.
Notice from BuffaloHELP:
Edited topic title. Please try to refrain from titles such as, "I Need Help Choosing..." Thank you.
If you forget about the mods may I recommend SMF? Its a great board with lots of development going on as of now. You can check it out at www.simplemachines.org
huh.. this time i gonna be on a fresh meat.. use ikonboard. i can provide you to view my demoboard running on trap17. flexible, simple, reliable and nice cosmetic. but this is perl cgi thou. still free, functionality much like ipb,vB and simple like phpBB. you can track my thread at my sig. good luck...
Maybe this will be of use: Its the simplicity of phpBB with many pre-added features... I use it too on 2 sites now and people keep requeting on GUA lol
You can get it from IntegraMod and I wrote a tutorial here
The hardest thing is the install wich isnt all that hard
Just want you to know that IPB 2.0.x isnt free and I dont think it'll appear at phpnuke, so phpbb is a rather good choice for free boards with its flexibility...
I would say your best choices would be either the latest IPB 2.x, or VBulletin, though they are both paid. But I'm not sure if they work with phpnuke.
If you don't care if it works with phpnuke and you just want a free one that is like IPB, go to www.invisionfree.com, it's IPB 1.3 (I think) minus a few features, but it's free, all it does is ad an advertisement at the top of your page.
But, other than that, I suggest you just go for something like PHPBB, I think that is compatible with PHPnuke, in fact, I think it comes with PHPnuke, no?
However, if you already have a paid IPB board of course you should stick to it cause IPB attracts more members if you're using paid ones and you'll not waste the license...
Or if you want use some others like yabb and smf, which is good to experimental with...
http://www.invisionfree.com or http://www.invisionplus.net - The free versions of the IPBs. However the invisionfree domain has only a basic google search function (full forum search capability disabled), but redirect/mask domains to the invisionfree address which is usually s(number).invisionfree.com/forumname.
Invisionplus, not much difference to invisionfree, but some differences are that a subdomain is provided and full forum search capability is provided. However the reliability and speed may be questionable at times, but uptime is generally very good.
It still hard to decide, with regards to free forum software, which one I would choose.
I like phpBB, except for the fact that it takes too long to install mods. I also like SMF, but the skins are plain ugly...
With regards to paid software, i love vBulletin...sorry if you like IPB, but I guess im more looks orientated to solidarity...and i really dislike the look of IBP

Hey all, I'm just starting up a forum on my hosting here, and I was wondering, how do people
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....

I use Proboards Forums, which doesn't allow PHP. I've been looking for a RPG forum game for
Proboards. But sadly, they only come in PHP. So, I was wondering, is it possible to convert that PHP
into HTML? Can Java Script be converted into HTML, too? Some of these codes are in java, as well.
If you don't know, the RPGs have stats, classes, battling, shops, ect. I've seen it on many
forums. I know that boards like InvisionFree abd PHPBB are great for this kind of thing, but I feel
comfortable on Proboards. Plus, those boards confuse me. I know it's sil....

In the fantastico section of the Trap17 cpanel you might have noticed that there is an opportunity
of have a Forum installed on your Hosting account. One of the available Forums is phpBB, and last
time I checked, the version on the fantastico was something like 2.17. The newest production
version is phpbb 2.21 and it includes all the latest fixes and bug squashes. The 'new'
phpbb is version 3.0 Beta 2. This means it is not yet suitable for an actual production environment,
but it is solid enough to be made available to user for testing. Phpbb 3 Beta 2 version....

I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how to go for building a site that I can run
a small-sized community with maximum costumization as well as hook a portal up to it so I can post
content on the site, guides, block messages of text, etc... I was think of going with IPB or PhpBB
and Mambo/Joomla or whatever they're calling themselves these days. It's more of a matter of
which combo has the best/any modification(s) to fuse them, otherwise I might try out PhPNuke, but I
don't particularly like it, wished it had a bit more costumization and ....

wondering if there's a blog script with inbuilt image galleries. any other recomendations for
other good blogging scripts would be appreciated aswell. ;] thanks in advance.....
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....
I'm thinking of using Mambo Open Source because I saw WYSIWYG was included to help design your
site, but I'm not sure if I should go with it. What are you all using, and what do you find to
be the most user friendly. I'm new to PHP (translation: I don't know what the hell I'm
doing), so what would be the easiest for me to put up. I've already designed my site in
Frontpage with frames, but I'm ready for a more grown up site. Let me know. Thanks
