dont use plaster board any where near a shower base . if water gets to it the tiles will let go as it is not water proof. use backer board if you are going to line it

It you tile it properly plasterboard will not be a problem

In this situation Scottley agree with you. I will use a 6mm backing board as I need a small amount anyway to cover an existing pipe box out to align with a shallow wall build out to accommodate the new shower basin.

If i had hardi id use that but nothing wrong with plasteboard. Its been used in untanked situations for years. Not all fail.

With the newer tanking product then its the way forward obviously
