Again, He cant remove the ads... I also run many PhpBB and PhpBB2
boards, and I know that from within phpbb admin, you can set up the

displayed..
The Ads are part of the phpBB styles, which you have the "upload" by
ftp and then "install" in phpbb admin in order to change....
Or just learn enough PHP to rewrite the files, then upload them. It's
not even as difficult as what I do every day for a living - PHP is a
pretty simple language. Next you'll tell me that programs written in
C++, or Jovial, or ATLAS can't be changed.
"then upload them." Lol, now your just being retarded... [he cant
upload]
He cannot do this as it is a FREE FORUM HOST... the only access he has
is phpbb admin.. NOTHING ELSE..
If he can't even upload the phpBB files, it's not even a host - he's
being given access to someone else's BB. If he can upload the phpBB
files, he can change them before he uploads them.
It is "hosting" a phpbb for him, he isnt given ftp access so no
"uploads", he is only given admin access to the phpbb board...
NOTE: If he was hosting his own forum using phpbb and mysql databases
then YES he could change anything he wanted, he could upload any new
styles, or edit the templates himself, but as he doesnt have access to
the webspace itself, then he only has limited access to what he can do
GoDaddy hosts my phpBB (that means that it runs on their computers -
they have nothing to do with the PHP code I upload to the site) and I
rewrite it any time I want to rewrite it, so don't tell someone who's
done it that it can't be done. Learn what "hosting", "uploading" and
"programming" mean.
I understand these terms, and you have ftp access to the space that
GoDaddy allocate you... he doesnt, so all I can say is "learn to read"
