Hello guys, I've been working on my Free phpBB3 Hosting website lately, what do you guys think? Any input will be appreciated! Thanks.
I really think the concept is great. You don't see many phpbb3 hosting sites out there. Overall is very good, but could maybe use a more designer approch on the main page.
I didn't know that phpBB was soon to be bringing out number 3! It's a great idea to get in there first - in fact if I didn't have my own hosting company I would have signed up myself today. The home page is a little plain but I think adequate. One thing I would have done differently to entice more people to sign up would be to include some really nice templates on the demo forums just to show what can be done with phpBB and to include some posts with images and videos - show them what can be achieved. But a great idea good luck
Thanks guys - I appreciate the honest views. @zacharyb The rather dull background is to project the content in a better light so that the contrast is achieved and people stay on the content...well, that was the idea at least! @Cyb3r Yes, phpBB3 is almost around the corner, and its going to really beat the competition by a huge margin! Ofcourse, the best thing about it is that its OpenSource...
Yes, I've just replied to it, please check your inbox. Thanks for signing up too - every member is important!
Yo Karthik, I (will RIGHT NOW) send you a PM because I too, have just signed up for a free forum. Btw Sweet! EDIT: Ok I have sent the PM.
phpbb-seo.com has a static re-write mod for phpbb3. I think free-forums.org uses something similar for phpbb2
Oy I have a question. Is there a place in the ACP where I can upload files to it? Would be cool. You know, to get mods on it.
@muppethunter Yes, I'm aware of the mod and I have it on quite a few forums that I manage too. Their version for phpBB3 is not out yet I believe, in any case, adding mods right now is too early, the code for phpBB3 is not complete yet - it should be soon though... @ripstack69 The way it is going to be setup now would be to let you request a mod at the Support Forum and if there are sufficient votes for it, we'll install the mod for you. Part of the point in us managing your forum is to save you from the bother of installing mods and maintaining files and what not - its best left to us while you have a pleasurable experience administering your forum from the ACP(while having all the mods that you want!). You can access the Support Forum here and of course, the main site is Free phpBB3 Hosting.
Wait are you saying you can install mods for me? If so, I love you I could never get a connection, like I don't know what to type in the path, password feils, etc *feilds* EDIT: I'm sorry but I've yet another question. I'm trying to set a user as a certain group, I made one called Team Altered, but can't make him it. Could you help me, Karthik?
@ripstack69 Yes, I believe I deserve some love then Seriously, yes, we will install most of the mods you want, just request it at the Support Forum, if I give the link again, Shawn will probably ban me, so kindly look at the first post I expect your problem's been solved as discussed by PM. Do let me know if I can be of any other help. And, if you do want to know how you can show all that love, just spread the word - word of mouth, signature links, e-mail, whatever - just don't spam though! @Kasier Soze Glad you like the design, as you might have read in the previous posts, you're one of few who like it
