I think so. Give it a try... there's nothing to lose. It's a mature product, with detailed documentation.

Is phpBB easy to install?

JeevesBond — Sat, 04 Sep 2004 14:05:39 +0000

phpBB is the best, from what I've heard.

And no, I haven't heard of any sites that give away things to NFP organisations. I can't imagine you'd need anything like that anyway, and if you do it would probably be a good idea to just e-mail them and ask... You'll never know unless you ask!

phpBB is basically free. It's an open-source project releasing its code under the GNU Public License (GPL). Ideal for not-for-profit projects.

Particularly to your question, no, I can't think of any sites that give specially to not-for-profit projects.

heebiejeebieclu — Sat, 04 Sep 2004 13:22:50 +0000

No, I meant certain sites that will only give stuff to not-for-profit site.
If anyone wants to help me with this (it is allowed) then e-mail me.

I'm not sure but I think you get different benefits for being NFP depending on where you're located. There are special requirements to being NFP though. Take a look at this http://www.clmp.org/resources/overview.html

You can get phpbb at http://www.phpbb.com/

phpbb.com?

Yeah, avoid Nuke. It's messy.

There isn't a place where not-for-profit charity things can get special things is there?
What's the link for BB Board?

KarenArt — Sat, 04 Sep 2004 12:55:14 +0000

That was my mistake. I saw the site that you had linked to and thought you ment you were designing the whole thing.
Hey... I can make mistakes too... just don't tell anyone...

Yes, PHPNuke or PhBB would be the way to go. I'd personally go with the BB board but that's just me.
Keep us updated on how it's going!
