They were too advanced for my skills

I wouldn't mind a tutorial on how to create a forum with login!

I would at least recommend trying to setup PHPBB or even PHPNuke before you attempt to generate your own. That way at least you would know how to set it up.

Both of the above offer good install guides.

Google for 'phorum' - it's probably the most basic php/mysql board out there.

No, I will (try to) modify the code so I need as little code as possible. The end result will be very much like a forum though.
I did install a forum once

It really depends how simple you want the forums, try making a PHP it isn't that hard... try www.free2code.net for some tutorials that might help.

he's recommending Invision Power Board. Google for it, you'll find it. It is probably too advanced for what you're looking for.
