Whether you want to stay in touch with a small group of friends or are looking to set up a large multi-category board for a corporate website, phpBB has the features you need built-in.

 

UTF-8 Support

phpBB is fully compatible with UTF-8 and uses it as the default character encoding. This ensures complete compatibility with nearly every language on the planet.

phpBB’s features and functionality can be extended using self-contained extensions. These community built extensions are easily installed via the ACP with just a few clicks.

 

3.2.x PHP7 Support

With phpBB 3.2 the most recent major version of PHP7 is now completely supported. This will make phpBB considerably faster and moving along to modern times.
