You should also be careful when asking for help like this as many people arent what they seem to be.

I looked in my fantastico and I didn't see mybb but it may vary by hosts. You will probably have to upload the files (via FTP) and then install it manually. There should be a help file on the mybb internet site that helps explain the process.
For FTP, I use FileZilla. Works very well for managing files through uploading and downloading via the server.

Any of them should be more than willing to help you install it so that you learn things yourself. I can help you myself as well if they can't.
After you learn how to do it, it's pretty simple.

I'm glad i could help. 🙂Mokeli said:
Please don't take this personally, but if you're having a hard time searching the MyBB site for help (http://wiki.mybb.com/index.php/Installing) then when/if you start messing around with modifications or template alterations, you're going to be for quite a surprise. Setting up a database, uploading one master folder, and going to your url, should not be this difficult, unless you were just being lazy and didnt feel like putting forth any effort to learn something new.
My advice: If you don't really want to do the work, but you want a finished project, then search for a Free Forum Host somewhere and have them help you forward your domain nameservers to the free forum. That way, you don't have to deal with any of the technical bits.
In the event you really are trying and do want to learn this, then I'd suggest reading everything carefully, don't take shortcuts, and train yourself to be resourceful on the internet. What this means is, if you get stuck on something, search (a lot) before you ask for help.
Another thing, if you're going to ask people to install your forum, then maybe help you install a modification or 3, then help code a new template, and help make posts on your site - then what part of the site is yours? My point: Don't ask people to do it for you - ask them to help teach you how to do it so you know how it works. Trust me, you'll learn a lot more than if people just do it for you.
Just to remind you, I'm not trying to discourage you, just emphasize the fact that, if you really want this, you'll make a few changes because you're starting out wrong. There are a ridiculous number of tutorials and help posts on the internet in easy-to-find places where simple things like this shouldn't call for a post. Good luck and, if you really really really need help, then yeah...obviously you should ask lol
