Check out the php Tutorials in the Tutorial Section as written by Ghostrider. There are about 8 of them by him. Read them in secquence to gain the best knowledge since they build on one another.

Happy Coding :XD:

phpbb3 is a hell of a lot better than phpbb2 :XD: i was using it on the demo.

I think they are hosting the beta version now of phpbb3.

PhpBB or Invision for me. I'm more used to the InvisionFree version of the Invision Power Boards, its slightly simple but more easier to use as a user and as a admin.

Try http://www.forumotion.com/. I've been using it for a year now. And it had just 1 down server (server not found time). The forums can't be hacked, the admin panel is easy to use, you can chose from phpbb2,3, invision and punbb. All versions are not the same, on forumotion you have more modules (reputation, thanks button, portal..). Also, if you know coding, you can edit everything with html or you can edit the desing manuali (picture by picture, color by color without any coding) or with CSS coding.Also they have support forums with tons of people that help each other with their forumotion problems. http://help.forumotion.com/
I recommend it to everyone, just try it and you will see.
