Q. How do I create my forums?
A. Click the link "Create Forums" in the menu, fill out the correct info and press submit. We will instantly send you an activation code to your email. To activate your forums, go to your forums, click the Activation Notice, input the code you got in your email and submit it. That's it.
Q. Do I have to pay anything?
A. The answer is no. You don't have to pay anything at all, and there are no Ads too so you can fully enjoy your forum.
Q. I'm afraid a hacker could hack my forums and delete all the posts and topics. What should I do?
A. Well, first of all, myBB is very safe and the only way to hack it is to somehow know the adminstrator's password. So keep your password safe and you will be fine. If you want to be 100% sure nothing bad will happen you can use our Backup Saving service. You pay $15 once and then you can save unlimited amount of backups forever! If something bad happens (highly unlikely), you just use your saved backup to restore your forum. We also take backups of our own periodically and if something tragic happens, we will restore it for FREE!
Q. I want to upload plugins and custom themes. How do I do that?
A. Unfortunately we don't offer that because that way hackers could put "bad" PHP code in the plugins and themes making it easy to hack the server. That's why we have a wide selection of skins and plugins to choose from. You can edit the CSS of a skin though, though, but when you change something be sure to back up the CSS on your computer because we might Refresh the skins when it will be ncessairy, which will revert any changes you made. Also, if you want, you can request plugins and themes being added, on our Support Forums.
Q. Are there any rules I should follow in my forum?
A. Yes, to read them click the link "TOS" in the navigation bar.
Q. I read the rules and I want to know, can I use my own rules additionally to yours in my forum?
A. Yes, that is allowed.
