Software Highlights - Fantastico - Discussion Boards - phpBB

phpBB has, since its creation in 2000, become the most widely-used Open Source forum solution in the world. Millions of people use phpBB on a daily basis. Whether you want to stay in touch with a small group of friends or are looking to set up a large multi-category board for a corporate website, phpBB has the features you need built in.

phpBB couples a large and highly customizable set of key features with a standards-compliant interface. phpBB's sizeable database of user-created modifications makes changing and adding features as simple as pasting code into the appropriate files, while the styles database contains hundreds of style and image packages to customise your board.

Newer users will appreciate phpBB's extensive administration panel, which allows the customization of even the most intricate features without having to edit code directly, while advanced users will value the ease with which phpBB can be integrated into existing systems. The administration system allows you to have a forum set up in a matter of minutes.
