Can someone please tell me - is it possible to set up a vbb forum for testing hacks etc before putting them on the main forum ....

If so what ids the best way to do this please..... so that one does not interfere with the other :ermm:

i don't hack but i run a dummy vB on my laptop running on win98 for general testing. if you're on a windows machine i recommend a bundle from firepages which you can get here:

second opinion here http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/8097.html

this is a seriously good Apache/PHP/MySQL bundle that installs seamslessly. i tried doing it the PHPTriad way but it took a lot of time. once you've got the local websever running ... install vB and hack till you drop.

p.s. just checked the site. it's down right now but will be back up later next week. worth waiting for if you ask me.
