How Much PHP Knowledge Is Required For MyBB? - Drako - 05-14-2019

As the thread title is asking, do I need to be knowledgeable in PHP to use MyBB? I want to use it because I might look into making my own forum.

You can setup a forums with myBB without having any prior PHP knowledge. Having knowledge in PHP/MySQLi will definitely help you. Make sure your extensions are up to date. Check the exploit-db to see if anything new is showing up that you weren't aware of.

Well that's nice. I didn't really read into it much so I had no idea. I did know about keeping up to date with exploits though. I'm really into pentesting now and networking so I should be alright.

That's alright, I figured everything out tonight (At least setting it up). I'm only testing it tonight so I'll probably set it up on host gator, as of now I'm using 000webhost.
