What is FluxBB?

FluxBB is an open-source forum application written in PHP that aims to be fast, light and user friendly. It grew from the PunBB codebase and covers essential forum features without much extra complexity. It is GPL-2.0 licensed. Its latest stable release dates from 2018 and repository activity has slowed since 2021.

How to install FluxBB on Hostripples: choose a plan, open Softaculous, FluxBB is live

Project status: Latest stable release is 1.5.11, announced December 2018 on the official site and listed by Softaculous. Commits to the main GitHub branch stop in 2021. The GitHub releases page also shows a 1.4.x security backport, but this could not be confirmed against the official site. Publicly reported vulnerabilities exist for 1.5.11 in vulnerability databases. We list it because it is still available in the Softaculous installer; consider an actively maintained alternative for new projects.

Licence: GPL-2.0 · Built with: PHP + MySQL · Official site: fluxbb.org

Common uses

  • Small community or club discussion board
  • Simple support forum for a hobby project
  • Lightweight forum on a low-resource plan

FluxBB requirements

  • PHP: PHP 5.6.4 or later (per the official repository README)
  • Database: MySQL 5.0.6+, PostgreSQL 7.0+ or SQLite 2 (per repository README)

FluxBB needs only PHP and a database and works on standard cPanel accounts. The project has slowed markedly, so keep the software updated, restrict admin access and consider a more actively developed forum for new sites.

  • All-NVMe storage and LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache for quick page loads
  • Selectable PHP versions per site and CloudLinux account isolation with CageFS
  • Free SSL, daily JetBackup backups and Imunify360 malware protection
  • Free migration of an existing FluxBB site, and 24×7 support in English, Hindi and Marathi
