The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Has anybody installed a forum on their website? If so could you send me your web address as I would like to see what it looks like!
cheers

Here are the forums I have using SMF (www.simplemachines.org), which uses MySQL all hosted on Freeola of course:
Yamaha Personal Keyboard Owner (Over 8000 members)
James Woodcock - Freelance Journalist (Over 100 members)
Using MySQL and content systems available, it really makes life simpler creating a website. I can't comment on Freeola's new own forum setup as I haven't used it.
first i tried ikonboard but i had trouble when trying to delete it from my site, it told me i did not have permission to remove some of the files and had to get tech support to do it (it might have something to do with uploading some self extracting files in binary)
i am now trying Navboard which is more basic and quite old but so far has not given me any problems, except when i tried to modify the script and made a mess of it
remember if you do not have the mysql activated then you will need what is called a flat file forum
if you find a good one, post it up
