Hi all,

Just registered on here today having previously been using a free forum hosting service which was littered with ads and had massive downtimes...

Have now decided to take the plunge and signup with Catalyst to get myself something more reliable and ad-free

Basically I'm just after some guidance as to how I install PHPBB onto my Cat2 area... My domain name is registered with 123reg 'fictional-reality.co.uk' and I've updated my config on there to point to the ns1 and ns2 servers.

I'm presuming PHPBB needs to be installed into the /wwwroot directory and can FTP onto this directory without problems.

What exactly do I need to do to install PHPBB into this area (presuming its the right area) ?

Thanks... Marcus
