Information:
>! Creative forums is a professional free open-source forum and portal engine, it is designed to make forums simple fast and easy and also look professional and for professional coders/programmers it is also simple to edit the codes because of the simple structure we use. I also try to make this forum engine the safest and easiest engine around the internet. I also want this engine to become simple to edit with theme editors, selectors, and visualy nice page, category,… editor. This engine will also be easy extendable with the possibility of mods with this feature you will be able to add things to your portal/forum with only a few clicks for example i wanna add a slideshow/carousel i just type in "Carousel" in the searchbox and i find some pretty nice mods i pick one out go to the settings and select the images and DONE.

There is no need to be confused i originally started making this forum/portal engine for my website because i didn't like any of the existing systems.

I will change the theme to a default theme once i got the avatar thing to work ![;)](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png)

Maybe i am a pro guru you don't know…....

Added avatar url in edit profile now working on adding more stuff to edit profile.

Also added a global header/footer/sidebar so i only have to edit 1 file to change how my header looks

Anyway here are some new screenshots of viewing a topic and posting a new reply:

A bit off topic post, but how exactly do forum engines like so work? Is it hosted off of a remote server, if so then do you just sync the hostnames to the main IP? Argh, reading up on these so I can get a decent looking forum for my game when it goes public.

Well i just use php, html and mysql and a bit of javascript

I encrypt passwords and stuff with bcrypt, encrypt some other important data too.

But it's simply a call for data from the mysql server and send updated topics,posts and new topics and posts

The boards and forums simply get the hole list from the mysql server with boards for the forum homepage.

And for the boards it gets a list of all Topics and limits it to 20 or more (depends on user settings)

and for paging in boards i simply use a number in the url with the page and it starts from that page * 20 (or other user defined limit)
