What is phpBB?

phpBB is an open-source software that webmasters can use for free to integrate a discussion forum into their website. The application is available in more than 40 different languages, and a wide selection of templates allows for individual design customization. The development of phpBB dates back over 14 years, and the current versions offer numerous features such as an enhanced user control panel and an administration area with an extensive permission system. Since the source code is openly accessible, the active community provides many modifications that enable new features or changes to the system. The software can be downloaded for free from the community website.

Requirements for Web Hosting for phpBB

Web hosting providers for phpBB servers have relatively low requirements. phpBB can be run on any web server like Apache, Nginx, or Microsoft's IIS that provides PHP script language support. Various database systems are supported, ranging from MySQL and SQLite to PostgreSQL, Oracle, MS SQL, and FireBird. The developers also recommend PHP extensions like zlib, ImageMagick, and GD to ensure smooth operation. As is typical for all forum systems, the required storage space mainly depends on the size of your own community. Therefore, allocating several GB of storage space is advisable.
