In the long run, do you see FUDforum still being developed, like other free scripts are, like SMF or phpBB ?

I see folks come and go. cpreston had a new look in the works and sounds like that died on the vine. I see his logo work made into 3.0.6 but nothing after that.

I'll do my best to help, test and throw money at it. I see the wealth of determination in the beginning of these ideas to change but never see them come to light.

I would say that I am about 50% done with alpha quality code.

Anything you can get us would be good. Mobile device support would be the #1 priority. Driving away the people is not a good thing. My forum is small in comparison. I don't hear a lot of complaints if any. My guess is we are vintage in nature so the forum software goes with the territory.

If you have any alpha or beta candidates for us to try let us know. I can apply my production base forum and have our users give plenty of feedback.

Let it rip!

Just checking in to see if you have the new video? I would like to share with my user base if possible. Are you OK if we call you by your forum handle (NeXus) or do you have another name to go by?

Cheers!
Gary

Installed and running! Installation went without a hitch. Pretty good for an alpha release!

I will keep it in it's generic form for now. Later on I will try restoring a data dump of my production forum and see how that goes.

Some observations:

-Security credentials do not carry over when switching from main to the ACP panel. Requires you to login everytime.
-Rebuilding of the default theme doesn't seem to work though it says it was rebuilt successfully. I tried changing the header image but no changes took place. (Edit) I see that we're not using the theme/default/images directory, I found an "images" directory in the root of my web. files.

-Cannot register new users. Missing Captcha generator.

Funny, I though I had removed that call. You can replace the offending line with the following:
$data['html_body'] = $this->parser->parse('fud/post.php',$data,true);

Be aware that smileys will not render correctly (that fix_relative_urls function was there for that purpose).

Thank you! Posting messages now works. Wink

Thx a lot for starting to push Fudforum.

Its a pitty that this nice Software suffers from some minor things ... which can be disturbing I know
But looking even at the well known names its a brilliant software, which runs like a workhorse.
We have now more than 325.000 posts in just 1 of our forums, and its quick and safe.

The key point in my opinion is the visual.
- just the theme used in this forum here is a nightmare
- Css / mobile responsivity is now standard, although I admit that with new mobiles having usually more than 1000px width its already much less critical than it used to be

I´m also not a coder, so no chance to really help you there. What could be an option is to hire a coder from Fiverr for specific tasks, no problem to support this.
Also I might look into a new theme, which is a bit more "friendly" at least in terms of colours and optics

What most people underestimate: With just header, footer and Css and some images the visual impact can change dramatically, without too much effort.

I think most of us would agree if we could get visually optimized for iPhone and Android devices, that would be the biggest gain. Maybe a plug-in could be developed as an interim solution, somthing similar to vBulletin's Mobile Suite?

Everyone pretty much agrees this software runs like a tank. One of the traits that we should never let lapse. The security is top notch and the plug-in functionality is just as good. Getting back-door access to the files and database are a crucial for hosting domains that doesn't allow CLI access. Wonder if we could come up some kind of terminal shell interface through the ACP? Yeah, I'm reaching here. Wink
