I am looking for a free BBS solution that can go multi-directory like Yahoo!'s directories. phpBB is good, but it can only make categories and forums.

Can anybody tell me if the admin of FUDforum can create a multi-directories forum?

You can use categories which can be nested to emulate directories.

No, actually, Ilia, I might have been misunderstood. Let me explain more clearly.

Talking about this very forum, there is 'General'. Let's call it 'category'. Inside 'General', there is 'Test Forum'. Let's call this 'board'.

OK, what I want to do is to have 'boards' inside a 'board'. Is it possible with FUDforum? With other softwares, this can be called 'child-board', 'subforum', etc. OK, that's the first question.

There is another question (sorry for giving you a hard time...). I am looking for something that can even go further. Inside a 'board', I also want to have 'categories' as well as 'boards'.

Going back to this very board, it's like nestling the entire (child-)category 'General' (with 'Test Forum' inside as a BOARD OF THE CHILD-CATEGORY) under the board 'Code Hacks' found inside 'FUDforum Development'.

Like this:
FUDforum Development>>Code Hacks>>General>>Test Forum

FODforum Development is a CATEGORY.
Code Hacks is a BOARD.
General is a CHILD CATEGORY of Code Hacks
Test Forum is a BOARD of General

In other words, it's as if, when you click on Code Hacks, General opens up.

fudforum does not support sub-forums, only sub-categories are supported.
