A few tips for requesting help:

1. Do state your problem as clearly and concisely as possible.
2. Don't use fancy text effects for a help request.

3. Don't panic when nobody answers you within five minutes!

4. Don't call us all 'mean' when nobody answers you within seven minutes!

5. Don't cross-post!

Now, I'm sure if you'd put your request nicely and clearly you'd have had an answer by now, but please understand that you haven't made it easy for us...

This forum is for webmasters which run a website on some host. If you have a host then you need to make sure it supports php and mysql (in the right versions) such that you can install a yabb se forum.

If you do not have a host or are not interested with dealing with such technical issues then you probably will be happier if you buy for example a boardnation account with preinstalled forum.

If you have a host which satisfies the criteria for yabb se you can always ask for someone doing the install for you. Me however do only installs on a paid host and want to know first what the new community is about (no warez, porn etc.).
