there are two different ones there, I am assuming i need the first one? Would you by any chance know someone who would set this up for me? Ok, sorry for all the confusion in this topic. Some of the posters are not reading the previous posts before they give you advice. Since you are on a free forum...

short answer: no. phpbb like just about every other web based program and like just about every single website in the world, depends on being able to access folders in a normal tree fashion. just about any other host will not have this turned on. to test phpbb without buying hosting space and domain...

here is a place to get phpbb2 support.
It is in no way associated with phpbb.com, however, many of us long time supporters are involved there.

I'm surprised such a program is not standard. Installing mods is time consuming and demanding. Hope to see a version for phpbb3...
