[Batistabomb]

Go for blogs instead.......

 

[pritish_kul2]

nahi man,,,hav to spend a lotta time for blogs....writing all the stuff

 

[anand1]

In free you can get only .co.nr and only option to go for installing any forum script is to go for subdomains with free hosting. There are many just google it out.

You cannot get a readymade forum. You'll have to cook your recipy on you own.

You'll have to buy a domain if you want a free hosting and........if you want paid hosting then some Hosters may have packages giving you free domains.
You cannot get everything free, you have to spend a little money.

Buy a domain www.net4.in (from where I had bought), they may be expensive but I had bought from them. You'll have to first change your nameservers to ns1.x10hosting.com and ns2.x10hosting.com in your Domain Properties which are provided by the Registrar (net4).
Then register with x10hosting and follow the instructions by Gigacore *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=75983 for the Forum.

Or you can contact Cyrus_the_Virus as he is having some attractive hosting plans. This thread may also help you: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76117

I would suggest you phpBB3 until MyBB 1.4 comes out for Forums.....

Ans1. There are lots of offers at Freewebspace.com/forums. I saw this on Webhosting forum to get free domain
*www.register.com/promo/acquisitions_8772090537.rcmx?trkID=SEMJ78Vw4W

Dont know if it works or not but most of people, it does

Ans2. Yes, .co.nr is basically a redirection service

Ans3. Depends upon the provider, No you cant at forumer or ipbfree.com but you can with simple host having Fantastico,Installatron or InstallApp

Ans4. Pm me

Ans 5. Yes you can. There is commercial script like Hivemail at *www.hive2.com/. Tons of options there, you just need to explore

Ans 6. Yes, phpbb and IPB. You can Google for more. They are thousands of them. Most of them for phpbb, SMF and IPB

 

[pritish_kul2]

[Sukhdeep Singh]

It would be best if you didnt opened a thread for every single piece of doubt you have.

Keep all questions related to one subject, your website in this case to one thread

Which Forum script you are trying to install ?

1. Generally you will Word Censors List pre build by the phpbbCommunity etc.

2. Same goes for Smiley Sets, tons of them availble for download at phpbb community

3. Thats the default timings, if max of your traffic would be from India, keep it GMT + 5:30 hrs

 

[Pathik]

There is a phpbb Mod too which automatically sets the time depending on the user's location in his profile.
ie if u r from india then all the forum timings reflect +5.30

Thats by default bro, the forum timings are based upon the timings in user profile which he selected while Registration.

The Default timings are for Guest section timings
