Forum help

Hi, i'm totally new to php and i am trying to make a forum.
I have no idea where to start, obviously i would like for it to use bb code but i have no idea about that either.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks.

You need to download and install phpBB (open source program).

It will take PHP and MySQL knowledge and experience.

I recommend you find a webhost that uses "Fantastico" ... and will
install the forum for you automatically. Or hire someone to do it.
