vBulletin - How hard is it to install?
 

Should I pay for their installation service or try it myself? Anyone tried it recently?

Hey man. If your somewhat familiar about how the internet and files work, its a cinch. Just a couple clicks and your done.

try it yourself... Follow the instruction to the letter.

Database will need to be created, but after that I think it is pretty straight forward.

very easy to do...
just follow the guide and you'll be fine :thumbsup

if ya want help email me at lsuchamps2008 at gmail.com, Ill do it for 1/4 of what they will charge ya. :)

thanks everyone, i'll give it a try, and they want $135 for that... go figure

I made the mistake of paying the install fee for the first vBulletin I ever used years and years ago. What a sucker I was. After that, I paid a guy I know to do it for me. What a sucker I was then, too. Once I tried installing it myself and realized how easy it was, I felt like a total jackass for spending so much money on paying to have it installed. It's so easy to install yourself if you have the database created.

Well hell I was thinking $20 so not even a quarter..lol

ya its pretty easy, only takes 5 mins or less

Not too hard, if you can figure out how to get wordpress going, you will probably be able to to get vbulletin installed too... If not, hit me up, icq 33375924, and I'll set it up for you for a few bucks...

Pretty fucking easy. If you can read instructions you should be fine.

It is one of the best scripts out there.

As a webmaster you should be able to do it. So try install it yourself and maybe you'll learn something useful. :P

Don't even try it.

It's simple, my techs at Techiemedia install any script i buy for free so no worries here...:winkwink: seriously don't all hosts install scripts for you for free?

It is easy man.

If you do get stuck I will give you a hand.....no charge :)

Icq in profile.

All you need is a mysql database and your right hand to do some mouseclicks. Not that hard....

Dead easy. Even for a technomuppet like me. Don't be afraid of words like mysql.

The hard parts are customising the damn skins / headers, working out how to do banner rotators etc. Neat free mod for the front page vBadvanced.

Good Luck :thumbsup
