- test if the forum is working correctly by opening `{forum url}` in your web browser. If you run into problems, please go to `{forum url}/admin.php` and click on the option "System Sanity Checks" in the menu. This will perform a couple of system checks to rule out some basic problems. If problems are found, please follow the instructions on the sanity checks page to solve them.
- Login into the admin interface at `{forum url}/admin.php` and check out what settings can be done to customize Phorum to your likings. This is also the place where you can create new forums.
