phpbb
Back in third grade I used Forumotion but I don't know how far into the dumpster they've went by now.
MyBB
From personal experience MyBB is boring now as they do release updates once per 6 months or longer.
phpbb is great as alternative.
Flarum
Flarum or Discourse.
Discourse is powerful. But I hate Discourse email system.
Let me suggest you one.. Most of people doesn't give the right importance.
SMF - Simples Machine Forum is free and have a lot but a lot of free themes and mods!
They recently launched they new forum version 2.1!
@HostSlick MyBB is good for sure. But I SMF is definetely better in my opinion, the reason why MyBB is bigger is because of hacking forums, nulled forumsvbased in MyBB in my opinion. Otherwise the SMF probably wins here.
For sure there are better alternatives. But for free themes, mods and community SMF is a good choice. MyBB should be the seconds one or also the first one.
The only cons is the editor they use for text etc... For me could be better.
Take a look in SMF
All those who replied had no clue what OP asked. He ask about multi-forum hosting software. He want to provide forum SaaS, like this:
userforum.mydomain.com
Look at examples he gave.
To OP: there is no free software for this. There is/was paid, but very crappy, based on phpbb. You must code your own solution.
Yes, I don't think its very hard either.
Someone even made something like that for Flarum, freeflarum.com
Discourse Nodebb Flarum
Nodebb
nodebb is cool
There is 2 way to do it, without to much development.
