Anthonyd Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Is there any free software that can be downloaded to run a forum? Want some half decent similar style to here I guess.Want to set up a forum for work mainly for Jap cars in the South Wales area, was thinking to bring together several marques. Quote
Guest Chris Bower Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 yes phpbb, you need a webserver to host it that runs php5 and my sql you can get one free at awardspace.com! Quote

Yowser Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 This site runs Vbulletin and is the most popular used. The other popular option, as cbvd has mentioned, is phpbb Quote
