BBpress : Simple, fast and elegant forum software
bbPress is plain and simple forum software, plain and simple. It’s easy to use, easy to administrate, fast and clean. But don’t let its simplicity deceive you; underneath the gleam, it’s got some powerful features and is highly customizable.
bbPress is still pretty new, but we’re certain of a few things:
- Open Source, always and forever
- Less (code) is more
- Simplicity is a feature
- Speed and security are the foundation of any good user experience
- Put the user first
Every line of code is written with these principles in mind, and if that sounds good to you maybe you can help out!
Before you begin, make sure your server meets bbPress’ requirements.
Quick Instructions
