A discussion forum for each page on the website?

All the reading and research has lead me only to confusion. When I finally get my website up I really want a discussion page for each page on it. Ideally I would like to post both comments and my answers or, some one elses if possible. Of course I would also like to control who can post, or at least stop someone who is trying to make a nuisance of themselves.

You need some kind of forum which allows registration and admin control.

 

All forums give you lots of files which you just download and automatically install. They contain php files and MySQL database files normally. You then use the admin menus to fine tune the permisions, board names. etc, so you don't need to understand PHP or MySQL.

 

phpbb3 is quite a common forum but it has to have its own page; there are lots of themes but they probably won't match your web pages. Wordpress http://wordpress.org/download/ can be styled to look like your other pages.

 

Cbox http://www.cbox.ws/ is a very simplified blog program which you can insert into one of your web pages (see the demo and example on the right).
