Install mybb on vps - Zangeose - 2018-11-01
Hello, welcome to this post.
I'm here with a big question mark on my head.
I bought a domain on namecheap and a vps on vps.ga.
Now I'm looking someone that wants to help me installing mybb on it.
I have discord and i'm here looking for people to help me out. I'm really excited about making my own forum.
I can pay you if everything works complete and I'm trying to find my way out of this.
Please answer here or add me on discord: Wanheda#2178

It is much easier than you think. Install CentOS, install LAMP, install CentOS Web Panel. For all these, you will find a lot of guides online. Once you have them, install MyBB is just adding a database and then upload files to proper areas as per documentation.

If you have no server management experience, do not do this; it will add another attack level.

No, I don't have any vps experience. Is it easier to buy a webshost and start from there?

It is easier to buy a cPanel hosting account, yes.

If you do not need a lot of resources and bandwidth, start with a shared hosting account. Most of them offer cPanel.
