I'm brand new to MyBB and have some questions.

Maybe there's an introductory video or page available somewhere.

I want to have my forum be mobile responsive. Is it mobile responsive right off the install or do I need to install a special mobile responsive theme?

Also I'm looking for any plugins that will enhance user participation in the forum. In other words, encourage them to want to actively participate. I see you have a reputation feature. So any features like that I'd be interested in learning more about.

Thank you
Most theme won't have a responsive design by default.
You could make look at the like/thanks plugin

How hard is it to install a theme?

Where do I find the themes?

I understand there are a number of responsive themes.

As I said I don't have any experience yet with MyBB.

Thanks,

Roger
The Go Mobile theme is actually a plugin.

Upload up  the files on their spcified folders

Hi Rajhu,
Most of responsive theme installation is very simple, you just have to install like normal theme and it will be done.
Also you can always use GoMobile plugin and that can make your website responsive.

After reading the responses now I understand, thanks for telling.

For theme installing check this docs
http://docs.mybb.com/1.8/administration/themes/

OP for user engagement, you can probably use Alerts and thanks system.
Sometimes points systems is also useful but depends on your community and planning.

Thank you WallBB,

That was more along the lines of the info that I was looking for.

I saw the Thanks system. What is "Alerts" as you mentioned?
