I've started up my web forum again after a several year gap. It took some
time to find a decent web host that wouldn't rake me over the coals. I
could use some advice and perhaps a good look over.

Monitor your forum to see how much use it gets. If it doesn't get much
use, consider converting it to a PHP-based board which doesn't require
registration. Users are often unwilling to go to the trouble of
registering for a forum which sees a low volume of traffic. Just a
thought. Otherwise it looks good.

To clarify, I mean a solely PHP-based system (search for PHP message
board online - there are several around - or write your own) rather than
a PHP-driven front end and a database-driven back end.

I had forgotten to change the board so that unregistered users could read
it. Last time I tried having unreg users post too but that became a
disaster pretty quick. I'm unfamiliar with this other php based system,
I'll have to look it up. Thanks!
