Hi,

I just joined up here a few minutes ago and I was wondering? I downloaded all of the required software, and then some. And now I would like to know, how I am suppose to get my forum up and running on the web? Is their something that I do to upload the software n' such or what?

Thanks in advance

TTR

I don't understand where it's all suppose to go, can the forums be uploaded onto simplemachines or does it go on a seperate website?

Hi,  I to have downloaded programs but am not knowledgable enough to get it to my webpage and need help.  If I become a charter member, will they do this for me?   Thanks  Thelma

Hello both and welcome to SMF  :D

Firstly, the support here is provided by volunteers, so it is probably worth remembering that 'bumping' a post less than 24 hours old is frowned upon.

Installing and running an SMF forum requires a certain level of knowledge regarding general internet usage and the topology of such.

I would suggest spending more than a couple of minutes reading here at simplemachines.

A good place to start is

Installing SMF (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?board=2.0;sort=subject)

and this may be useful

Hosts & Hosting (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=4.0)

Also

How to ask questions the smart way (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=494.msg711#msg711)

Your major friend here is the 'Search' tool, you may want to use it now, as the questions you have asked have been asked and answered many times before.

Hope that helps!  ;)

Charter Membership does indeed provide install and support services, however it does not cover hosting, which you must purchase and provide.

Thanks for your inquiry :)
