EDIT: I edited some text, i have setup wildcard DNS on my domain now. I would still like answers for the other questions tho, if i need to setup all sub domains manualy or will the script do this for me?

Hi.

I have server trough Hostgator and i want to buy, download and install this script, but i have a few questions first, because i am a newbie at this.

Hostgator supports all the requirements needed for this script and i am using Plesk.

So, when i install the script and someone register for a new forum, do i have to add the CNAME records and what not manually inside plesk for every user that register a new forum? Or will the script create these records on its own, automaticly?

I am werry confused on how this accualy works. Some help with this would be awesome before i purchase this script.

Thanks

You do not need to setup any subdomain for the users.

The wildcard dns takes care of that for you and setups up virtual subdomains. All you need is the * dns entry created.

Not sure haven't used it.
Generally I do not use any control panel and just setup each component on it's own.
