He's not asking for support as such, but how to build his community.
"The Book of Arantor, 17:3-5

  And $smcFunc shall protect you against injections and evil

Arantor

Asking the same damn question on multiple forums doesn't make you look good, btw.

Ashley S

Arantor. I made a thread in a different board and thieve moved to this board.

Arantor

No, I meant asking the exact same question here and on simpledesk.net isn't going to get you better answers.

Ashley S

People can no better answers than most people.

Arantor

Most people on simpledesk.net are people already here too, so asking the same question in two places where the same people will see it doesn't seem like marketing.

I wouldn't really advertise just yet until you have more content there - which means stuff you have to start yourself. Also a different theme; there are so many forums just using the default themes. Be original, be creative, make your forum stand out instead of being one of a thousand other forums that feel identical both in content and theme.

He doesn't have any tech experiances so no point asking OP for help.

He sure can't prove he has. Anyone can say, "I've used forums for 2 years."

What do you know about the forum scripts? What do you have to prove it?

Arantor

You asking me that, Royalduke?

rd

Of course not! OP

I know your talents Arantor :P if OP was you, I'd listen and would trust.

Ashley S

Arantor. I can't find any decent themes. I no your is custom and its nice and i can't find any decent ones.

Arantor

Then pay someone to make you one.

Ashley S

I can't be paying people :'(. I will just have to look for a decent one somewhere. I need to save my cash for my websites.

Edit a current one?

If you have used forums for so long then you must know how to.


Ashley S

Editing themes? You can't on some because the owner of theme don't like it.

Yes you can as long as you don't change copyright... you should have known this. Forget it, no pointing teaching the teacher, lol.

I've never seen an author say "no" to this. 

Arantor

There is no theme I'm aware of that prevents you modifying it. In any case, a theme that cannot be modified even by a mod isn't going to be practical for business.
