Restarting Forum

[Taz]

I am about to restart my forum but I need to find a good customizable skin. I don't have a high knowledge of php. I also need a few mods that will benefit the forum. I need a free elegant theme with maybe a sidebar and good colors. It should be a fixed theme(the skinny ones) or a fluid theme like FP.

What software are you using?

 

[Taz]

Phpbb.

PHPBB has to be one of the hardest things to edit and install mods on if im honest you have more luck on Mybb

Google AutoMOD.

Why has nobody heard of it? O.O

 

[Taz]

I have automod.

 

[JayJACKEL!]

Yeah, but everybody always says:

"phpBB is awful for MODs, manually installing always screws up" blah blah.

I must have posted the link to AutoMOD about 20 times since Christmas....

Automod is bad for security

I would never use AutoMOD. Manually installing MODs in phpBB can sometimes be difficult, but it's worth it. If you install the MODs properly, they're usually one hundred percent bug-free.

phpBB might have the steepest learning curve for someone who doesn't particularly feel confident editing code, but it provides the greatest reward with faster learning and better experience than simply pasting one code edit from a tutorial and edit settings.

So how about nice nun-overused skin?
