    welcome to freeForum!

    To install freeForum, you will need:
    - a web server with php and mysql,
    - to download the most recent version of freeForum.

    To install:
    1- Create a folder for freeForum on your server (YOUR_FOLDER).
    2- Modify config.php to your liking.
    3- Transfer the content of the freeForum archive to YOUR_FOLDER
    4- Make sure that the PHP scripts have write access to the 2 files in YOUR_FOLDER/Data/(this can be done with your ftp program).
    5- Open the file YOUR_FOLDER/install.php in a web-browser.
    6- Delete the file YOUR_FOLDER/install.php.
    7- Secure YOUR_FOLDER with a .htaccess or something similar.

    You're done! Check on the freeForum homepage for usage notes!
