IPB gives you more admin acess than phpBB

That's the only advantage aside from forum layout? I thought it was much better in almost every way...

Honestly, it is a matter of opinion. Many people love phpBB, and many people love IPB. In some ways Invision Power Board is better for people who are new to using forums, and it allows you to customize more things.

However, phpBB has its added benefits. You may want to search on Google for an issue like this, or try searching on the support forums.
