does anyone know of any really basic community boards (forums) which will easily allow me to build inside an existing site template?
i have a website in html already built, basically i want to be able to easily wrap my html elements around it all, like making a custom template - although my template is generically built and not designed for any specific board.
it needs to be free.
i'm aware of phpbb, vbulletin, invision, however these all seem like you have to built your template around the board, rather than the board around your template.
expression engines forum plugin does exactly what i need, but legally it costs about $1000.
i only really need a page to view the lists of threads,
a page to read the thread itself and submit new posts.
a page to create new threads
registration and user login.
i don't need any advanced forum features on it.
any ideas guys?
