| I'm afraid it's a wee bit more complicated than that. Forum software typically runs on its own and its design templates can then be modified to resemble the main website. In order to do this, I'm afraid you'll need rather good knowledge of HTML, a good deal of example templates to steal techniques from and all that. As for forum software, there's Jelsoft's vBulletin (which is what's running here) and free alternatives such as phpBB and SimpleMachines. All of these require a web hosting service that has PHP support and some sort of database server (typically MySQL). |
