Hi guys,

I want to start a a little project for myself to develop a php+mysql forum as a way to refresh myself with php, plus learn some new things.

Just wanted to ask if any of you have a certain methodology or structure and any tips on how to go about it. I’ve googled for guides etc, but have found nothing. I don’t want to use IPB, VB, phpBB or anything…I want to build something myself.

Cheers :beer2:
