genericnumber1 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 1) Yes, hundreds of websites use php/mysql for their forums, including this one. 2) No, I don't think there are any tutorials specifically for making a forum on THIS site, because it's a fairly involved process. I'm sure there are some out there on other sites that some well phrased searching can find.

revraz Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 If you don't feel like coding, just look for PHPBB, which is a nice PHP/MySQL Forum setup. is it possible to create a forum for your website using php and SQL? if so is there a tutorial on this site for it (i couldnt find one) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/133094-creating-a-forum-for-your-website-using-php-and-sql/#findComment-692223 Share on other sites More sharing options...
genericnumber1 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Well I think he wants to learn from it, hence him asking for a tutorial. @op: If you can't find a sufficient tutorial on the subject, try taking apart an existing free php/mysql forum (like SMF, PHPBB, etc.) to see how it works!
