Topic: Beginner Help

Hi, I am having someone develop my site and we have integrated the punBB forum. I have never administered an online forum before so what is the best way to learn? To start, I need to know how to add and edit the main forum categories.

Really, there are no better way to learn than to do a local installation and just play around with it. There isn't much to it smile

Ditto. The best way is to get a test board set up somewhere and play with it. You can also try putting the forum into maintenance mode and see what the different settings in the "Administration" page do before making the forum public, but with a test board you can be sure nothing important gets messed up*. PunBB is simple, you'll get the hang of it in no time. smile

* Or if something really does get messed up, you can always ask for help here at the forums. wink
