Hi,

What is the best settings for mybb (php etc.)?

For the upcoming MyBB 1.4 it will run great with PHP 5.2.5 and MySQL 4 on a MySQLi database.

As long as you have a recent PHP4 and MySQL it will run fine for you though.

The base requirements are:
PHP version 4.3.11 or above with XML Extension installed
MySQL version 4.0 or above

I wouldn't go as far as PHP 6 though.

Thanks.

And other php settings, like what is enabled what is not? (safemode, magic quotes etc.)

i've already using php_speedy in mybb forum.. and the result is mybb forum become faster.
php_speedy = http://aciddrop.com/php-speedy/

I recommend having safe mode and magic quotes off. You should also have register globals off.

Note that MyBB will work around these, however, it's probably more beneficial to have those settings disabled.
