Do any of you know how to set up a PHPBB Forum??
Or is this something I should do at the PHPBB support forum?

Been on this community for years and just finally realized it. I'M BACK!

Going to start making my Pokémon game for RMXP, need help with tilesets, spriting, and scripting. PM me for details!

This might help, just upload your phpBB into the directory you want, then if your having troubles (Like how I always do) with mySQL and datbases, etc. then view the link I gave you. Good Luck

Ok!!
I want that, but now I want my site to be compatible with the forum (like a website called GAIA ONLINE), but I don't know how to do this how would this work.
Like having the main page be the website but have the forums linked to then when you click it it takes you to the PHPbb forum in this case (Destiny Online).

So you have a website, and you want the site to have a link to the forums? Then just create a directory /forums or /phpbb or whatever and upload the forum there. Then when you link to the forums your link would be http://www.yoursite.com/forums

Not if you just upload the contents of the phpBB directory instead of the directory itself. But you could just skip creating the directory, then upload the whole phpBB folder, and then rename it to whatever you want it to be.

That's what I meant. Just rename it after uploading.
