Forum hosting at HostMonster: Possible?
Is it possible to host a forum on HostMonster? Yes.
Does HostMonster offers simple installation on forum script like vbulletin or phbb2? Yes.
Hosting a forun on HostMonster is simple. In fact I have a vbulletin forum running on them and everything’s doing well. Installing a forum on HostMonster is pretty much the same like installing WordPress on the host.
First, you’ll need to login to HostMonster cPanel.
Get to Fantastico or Simple Script whenever you’re in. Note that there’re two forum scripts available with Fantastico (phpBB and SMF) and three forum scripts available with Simple Scripts (phpBB, PunBB, and BBPress).
Take phpBB on Fantastico as our example, to select installation for phpbb forum, simply click on the installation link and Fantastico will guide you through the installation process. Fill up a few details like Forum names and URL; the installation process should be completed within seconds.
Simple as that.
