Bulletin Board
CPanel allows you to install a pre-made forum called phpBB. The phpBB is a PHP
web-based bulletin board. Unlike an e-mail list or newsgroup, the phpBB
creates a forum on your web site that allows users to post questions and
receive replies, all from their web browser. This allows you to choose from a
variety of graphical interfaces and smilies - little faces that communicate
the mood of the writer
 .
Once a forum has been created you can modify it extensively, from adding new
sub-forums to changing the visual appearance of the board. Be sure to visit
the phpBB web site -
http://www.phpbb.com/ - for more information on how to customize and use
your phpBB
Note: Keep in mind that each separate installation of phpBB takes up
several megabytes, and will grow in size with the popularity of the forum.
