I am in need of a simple forum/guestbook for my site. I have tried the free one from this site but keep getting errors. Looked for others but can never get them to work. Any ideas.What exactly are you having trouble with? It sounds like you are not configuring the forums you download properly. You might want to purchase a forum system, and make sure there is available tech support to walk you through the installation. I have tried most of the downloadable forums (this one included) and have never had much issue to get them going.

You could always write your own. I wrote mine in about 3 days working in my spare time. The original draft was a user control that I could practically drop into any project (assuming that the database was there and ready).
Could do that but i was hoping to get a free one, then look at all the code etc to learn how it works. My coding isn't that good

It will be when you're done :)
A forum is a very challenging project a novice.. possibly a bit over head IMHO. Think about it, you have to worry about data-access, repeaters, performance, security, cross-browser compatibility, skinning etc. Not to mention making it look nice, which is the easy part :)
Thats why i am looking for a free one so i can go through the code and practice like that
