Administration

PhpBB 2.0 is highly configurable. Most configurations are done in the administration panel. To get to the administration panel, log in with an Administrator username and click the link that says Go to Administration Panel at the bottom of any page.

Administration Panel

You may also go to the page admin/index.php within the phpBB 2.0 root directory.

As an extra security precaution, you will be asked to enter your password again to access the administration panel if you have not already visited it during your current visit to your board.

The admin panel uses two frames. The narrow navigation frame on the left shows the sub-panels available. The main frame shows the panel you are currently using.

There are three uncategorized links at the top of the navigation frame:

  1. Admin Index is the default admin page. It shows Forum Statistics and Who's Online. At the end of this page, you can view the version of the software you are currently running in addition to information on the latest available release of phpBB.


  2. Forum Index will take you to index.php in the phpBB 2.0 root, which shows the list of forums.


  3. Preview Forum will also take you to the forum index, but will keep the navigation frame, making it easier to return to other parts of the admin panel.
