I wanted to make my own fourm and I would use an... Acmlm board but I don't know how to use it. The fourm I have now is just plain... ...bad. (edited by Cat Lover on 05-28-05 01:56 PM) (edited by Cat Lover on 06-02-05 04:35 AM) |

Like the page says, just make sure you either know your way around this stuff *or* know other people online who do. And if an AcmlmBoard proves to be too tough to set up, there's plenty of other decent message boards out there that also have installation guides. (Although not much can replace this baby...) |

They're lieing, you need to perform an ancient ritual of dancing around a fire going "acmlm gtf away from gunbound! NINJA AE MONSTER TRUCKS LOL" While balancing several pounds of fresh fish on your head. | |||

You might also want to check out this first. It's a small guide on how to set up a board. | |||

You don't need to own a server to set up an Acmlmboard (or any board), but for PHP-based boards such as Acmlmboard, you need a web host that supports PHP. There are approximately 0 free hosts in the entire universe that support PHP, which means you will probably have to pay. | |||

And you'll need at least 1 MySQL database. Besides that though, most free hosts out there seriously do suck. I know there's quite a bit of people running boards through funpic's hosting, so you might want to look into that. If not, I'd recommend actually paying for some quality hosting. |

Yep, if you even want to take setting up a board seriously, you're going to have to find a good webhost. You WILL have to pay unless you want to be hit with advertising, downtime, unreliable service and bandwidth cutoffs. All free hosts will have at least three out of the four problems outlined above, and in plenty of suply. You need: - PHP Support - MySQL support - A decent amount of bandwidth / data transfer - FTP Access - A Database administration tool. PHPMyAdmin is the most popular. However, it's not like you have to pay a lot. I've got one server that costs me only (edited by Kasumi Skywalker on 05-30-05 07:11 AM) |

Um...why do you need FTP access? I've gotten along fine without it...I guess not all hosts have a web-based file manager/uploader though. | |||
