    Okay I found this site just the other day and I have many questions.

    Part 1 is, is there instructions in the download so I can put this on my web host which can handle this with no problem. I do have 10 GB transfer and 500 Mb disk usage. And no problem with sql 2.x.

    I tried to install PHPBB and I had a problem with data folder which in turns was the spot I quit trying to install it.

    So how easy is this to install? I already am running my site using HTML editor ‘Dreamweaver’ and it is nice but I have to use the editor every time I want to post stuff.

    I use to work with Xoop that was run by 12 of us and we had a webmaster who took care of things. I like the idea of just going to the site and posting my post like this site.

    I’m not sure you want to edit WordPress with Dreamweaver (but who knows this may be a great idea and I just don’t know). Are you looking to have a blog or forum (or both)? PHPBB is a forum script where WordPress is mostly used for blogging.

    PHPBB is very easy to install but from what I’ve read integrating it into WP is a pain. I would recommend you head over to the PHPBB forums for support on installing that.

    Does your host provide you with Fantastico (or other installer scripts) that autoinstall things like WordPress and PHPBB for you? I would ask them that would be an easy method of installing things.

    If your webhost has cpanel or vdeck or plesk or ensim, then there are some guides here:

    You won’t be needing Dreamweaver ??

    It’s easy to install and if you have ANY problems at all, just post here and we’ll help out.

    oh WOW.lol you speak a language I don’t under stand lol

    I will look at the site you posted there ‘podz’.

    I been using at first frontpage and now dreamweaver for years. I just have a small site that I keep up as a passtime.

    Before I ask further questions I will look at this link. I been looking for some one who can set it up for me but I don’t have a friends who know how. The one who does know disappeared last summer. I don’t think anything bad happen to him just that he probably got sick of being around and headed off to new places. Sorry for being off topic.

    thanks for the info all and I will get back to all later.
