Full Version: How to host MyBB on TOR

Hello. 

I'd like to create a BB forum only accessible via TOR.
(Note: This is nothing sinister, I just want to create a late 90's throw-back forum as a funny side project)

I'm a bit out of practice with these things, but I do have a web-server that I use to run other php/mysql websites that I could use, but currently I just use the hosting providers CMS/Filezilla to manage all my files - I doubt I'm going to be able to get root access to install TOR?

If anyone has any experience in this area - would you be able to point me in the right direction on where/how I can deploy the myBB files, then how I could install TOR etc and get back the .onion address. 

Many thanks
Hi Gary_,

This isn't a MyBB question strictly, you simply need to expose the NGINX/Apache server over Tor:

Thanks Raion.

I also found this link which seems to be very comprehensive:

Going to spin up a cheap VM and try to set this all up.
