So, I have downloaded the recent MYBB downloader i think its like 1.8 or something? 1800 the file name is.
So i did the whole extract files on the ZIP folder and what not. But i thought it was like a..download thing? maybe i got it wrong? well it came with all these inside folders and what nots with images. I'm trying to make a MYBB site and later on a HOST site for other MYBB users as well. Can someone please tell me how i can achieve this with the download i have ??? D: or am i missing something else entirely ?
If you want to create your site locally, take a look at https://www.udemy.com/blog/xampp-tutorial/

Then later on you'll be able to upload it to your web server and use it.

Have a look here for when you want to publish it for other users: http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/install/
that...only made me more confused.
im so confused.
The file you've downloaded is the right one. Upload the entire folder named "Upload" to the root of your server then begin installing it.

Need some help? Take this course it's free.
