Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
Why-Fi Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 These IPB forums are great! How do I get one? Is it paid? If it is, tell me its cost. Thank you for the info, ~Why-Fi
Why-Fi Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Thanks... But I don't know if I can afford it... I am a student... I'll see that... :(
CharlesC Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 I'm also a student and I bought it when I was 14, just save up for it. ;)
CharlesC Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Best software on the planet!!!! Well..community forum software yes.. :P
Why-Fi Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Well..community forum software yes.. :P I agree. And I think I will afford enough to buy it, as long as I get a little part time job. :) EDIT: Oh, and I would also like to know the requirements of these forums and how to install them (after buying). ;)
RobertMidd Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 See http://www.invisionpower.com/community/board/index.html for requirements
Why-Fi Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Whoa... Where am I going to find a host compatible with php or MySQL??? :o
Lindsey_ Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 IPS Hosting is a good way to get a free IPB Board Take a look herehttp://www.invisionpower.com/hosting/index.html
RobertMidd Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Whoa... Where am I going to find a host compatible with php or MySQL??? :o Most hosting companies should offer a package that include PHP and MySQL (both needed).
Mark Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Whoa... Where am I going to find a host compatible with php or MySQL??? :o They have to be compatible with PHP and MySQL... also... you're on one now. IPS provides hosting, which, incidentally comes with a free (albeit limited) IPB license. We're not actually allowed to give names of any other hosting companies, but Google is your friend.
Why-Fi Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 ... That will be sooome trouble... And I can't use the IPS host before I want to get the full featured IPB forum, not the limited one that comes with the IPS host. <_<
zigs Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 ... That will be sooome trouble... And I can't use the IPS host before I want to get the full featured IPB forum, not the limited one that comes with the IPS host. <_< IPS hosting is good (I have a full licence and host with them plus my board is modded), so all you need is money for the licence (cos you will have to pay for hosting anyway) plus support is ace and they will install your board for you :)
AndyF Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 You can still skin / style an encrypted board :) .... I run two boards, one a standard un-encrypted one and an encrypted one (on IPS Hosting) Don`t forget, some mods will work (components etc) , basically anything that does not involve source file edits. If purchasing a license is too much at the moment, consider a hosted solution (as posted above) , You can always upgrade / purchase a separate license later :) For the official answers from an IPS staff member, I recommend you contact them directly ( sales@invisionpower.com) , or follow this link > http://www.invisionpower.com/corporate/contact.html
Why-Fi Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 No, my "friend" Google found me a great host that supports both MySQL and PHP. I can afford for the forums now. I just don't know how to install the forums once I get them... :blush:
