TorrentPier uses an older version of the phpBB forum software, adding torrent and file sharing features to its core.
The script can be installed following the instructions laid out with the package's README file, and once setup you'll recognize the familiar forum interface.
Here users can register, and add torrent files as attachments to forum posts.
These can then be downloaded by other users, or added to queues for downloading in the future.
User profiles are also altered, TorrentPier adding download & torrent-related statistics to each member's page.
Another phpBB feature that's modified is the search system, which also takes into account that users might want to search through the torrent database.
TorrentPier also modified the phpBB backend, adding torrent-specific settings to the available management tools, allowing administrators to manage the tracker's features and behavior.
Even if the README and the script's homepage is in Russian, the TorrentPier interface is in English, so rest assured you'll be able to use it after you install it.
Since the installation instructions didn't mention anything about the default username/password combination for the admin account, that's admin/admin. We though it would be important to mention that, just in case you got tangled and frustrated after the installation process.
Requirements:
- PHP 5.3 or higher
