How to add mods to my phpBB application?

There are several ways to have phpBB2 mods installed on your SiteGround phpBB hosting account:

You can use EasyMOD for installing some phpBB2 mods

 

EasyMOD is an automatic mod installer for phpBB and we strongly recommend that you take a look at it and see whether the mod you wish to install at your phpBB2 forum is compatible with it.

 

EasyMOD can be downloaded from here:

You can install the phpBB2 mods manually

 

Every phpBB2 module has it own way to be installed. The general installation includes a manual modification of several phpBB2 files and some modification in its MySQL database. We strongly advise that you always read carefully the README and INSTALLATION instructions that come within the module file package. We also strongly recommend that you make full backup of the phpBB2 files and database prior to proceeding with the module installation.

 

If you have problems with the installation of phpBB mods, you may contact your web host for assistance. SiteGround provides the best phpBB hosting and we will do our best to assist you with your phpBB problems.
