1) Its not listing any files there, are you sure they have been uploaded?
2) Judging by the URL, I would say it is safe to assume that it is a Linux server. WWF only runs on Windows servers and requires ASP to be installed.
If you can only use that free hosting then you would be best off with phpBB forum on that website.

Hi,
Thanks for pointing that out about the php, it completely slipped my mind.
While i'm here, can webiz accommodate adsense and can someone confirm if paypal can somehow be intergrated so i could use subcription. Would i have to pay for this or is this something that you kind forum members could guide me on?
Any how scotty, thanks for the reply.

You can include your own adverts, including google adsense. How ever you would need to purchase a version that supports this. (the free version has limitations)
PayPal is not currently integrated so, again, you would need to purchase a version which supports modifying the source code.
You can see more about the different versions here:
http://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-compare-editions.htm
It depends how you wish to integrate PayPal into WWF. If it is a simple buy now button where you would manually move the user from one group to another, then this would be a trivial feature to add.
If how ever you wanted it to be automated, or even include features to warrant the paid accounts then you would need to add this functionality your self, as I am unaware of any existing mods that would provide this.

It all depends on what you are looking for. Any paid edition will allow you to do the things that scotty32 has mentioned.
If you do not have a Windows host or would feel more comfortable having the forum setup for you then the managed hosted version maybe best as the month hosting charge include the Premium Brand-Free version installed for you on our own servers and you also get upgrades installed for you for free.

Hi Bruce, I've just purchased a forum, i suppose it will be tues or weds till you load it? also will i pick up the bill for the free domain name registration? i'm not quite sure how to interpret that? is it free for the first 12 months or free to register it, then i pick the bill up for it.?  Scotty, left you a question on your forum.

Hi Paul
Normally most things purchased via Web Wiz are instantaneous. I don't personally have the forum hosting, but I assume if you have just purchased the package, it will have sent you emails which should include the information you require.
