Reporting Bugs and Issues

Help MyBB find and resolve issues with the software

When you experience a problem with your MyBB forum, it's important you report the issue so the MyBB team can investigate the issue and fix the issue if necessary. Bug reports can be created using your MyBB Community account in the bug reports forum for the appropriate version of MyBB within the Development category on the MyBB Community Forums.
