Basic Forum Tutorial


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi, I'm new to PHP. I want to build a basic forum for my site using PHP and MySQL. I've searched the 'net, but every tutorial I found the writer seems to get 'too technical' after a few steps. I try my best to keep up, but it gets very frustrating for a beginner.

I'm looking for a tutorial that will instruct me with just the basics, remember, I'm just a beginner. I want a basic tutorial that will instruct me on how to build the database/tables, how to link the tables, pages, etc. I was referred to this site, but was not able to find a tutorial for a basic forum.

As an FYI, I do not want to download and insert a third-party forum app. I want to be able to write the code from scratch, install it, tear it apart, break it, and then rebuild it. This would be the best way for me to understand the workings of a forum, build from it, and move forward with my new found knowledge.

Thanks in advance for your assistance
