The reason is as simple as: I didn't yet update the branch too 3.0.6!
I told you this thing has been in development for a while now...

TheDude wrote on Mon, 23 February 2015 16:56I had decided to try to hire someone to convert my forum to SMF.
I don't have any knowledge in coding but perhaps I can help in user feedback. If I haven't found anyone to convert before.
Good luck on a brave attempt to give new life to a dying script
Dam Dude! I see your already on-board with SMF. Your site rocks with that new forum software. I saw the conversion scripts for Fud on their site. Did you have any issues with the conversion? I'm seriously considering getting off the dying vine myself. I love Fud but the new looks and features of SMF are telling me that grass is greener on the other side.
Cheers!

Hi,
The script developed by margarett, who is a member of the support team, worked quite well. If you decide to migrate to SMF, he will surely help you until you're satisfied.
Guy's great, and knows SMF perfectly.
I surely don't regret switching.

Some time ago I did set-up SMF on one of my sites, and I admit the experience was not really convincing.
Okay, SMF has many "nice themes" at first glace, but it is quite difficult to work on the themes if you want some more modifications.
Spamming was another big problem, and despite some addons it only stoped when I fully stopped registration option by modifying code.
It was a while ago, but there were many more options which I was missing. Maybe some where added in the meantime.
But for me as well the missing threaded-view feature in SMF is another no-go, and this limitation still seems to be there

There are many ways of stopping spam, with botscout and stopforumspam, as well as as many questions you want to add, and also a (not very good) captcha.
I'm not interested in having other themes than default, and there are lots of plug-ins which add tons of features.
I don't regret switching

The new captcha SMF uses is good, having you put a graphic puzzle together beats the captcha 2 system here on Fud. I'm not so much a fan on theme changes and kind of like SMF vanilla gui themes. I also like the main page setup, especially looking at bartopmania forum. Users can get a feel for what has happened or what is happening on the horizon, a good forecasting view in my opinion. The gallery plug-in is cool, something Fud should have had long time ago.

There is certainly different opinions of appearance. Sorry to say, I really would hate this theme in bartopmania. Fully overloaded. Looks like for kiddies.
But thats up to everyone ... and not a real point, as there is a wide choice of themes in SMF and certainly an (and maybe the only) advantage.
If looking for alternatives I definatly would prefer something like Woltlab, which has the power and also offers both threaded/flat options. Vbulletin, IPB, phpbb3, myBB ... all of them have their pros and cons
But for the moment I enjoy the power, speed and many admin options of Fudforum, and actually I hardly see any open wishes.
Long time ago I had added a coppermine gallery, but for couple of reasons (safty, spamming, legal problems with pics) I stopped.
There is an interesting option with "Elgg", which is a social network software, and for those looking for real interactions between users an interesting option.
But good luck for everyone finding its "best choice", for me its still clearly Fudforum.

OK guys, this is getting quickly off-topic. Anyways let me update this thread a little.
I have become father for the second time, as I mentioned I would, but the little guy decided that it is a good idea to sleep during the day and wake up at around 1 AM. As you might imagine this causes me quite a few problems: I barely have energies to do my daytime job, so development has come to a halt.
I would like to stress, though, that this is not a good-bye, just an hiatus.

Sorry, no timetable, but there is the ROADMAP file that you can check out.
Right now I am refactoring the controllers for better readability and maintainability, and also to implement the missing features regarding messages, threads, etc. (edit, delete, lock, ...you name it).

If you look under Themes you'll see 2 responsive designs which I created and published. I'm running a responsive theme now for quite a while in my forum.
Fudforum 4 is under devlopement by NeXus and may take its time. Anyhow Fudforum 3 is already very mature with most likely more features you'll need, but also some kind of learning curve.
There are not many alternatives in threaded-style forums

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that I am still working on FUDf, although the recent problems with SourceForge have slowed me down a little. Right know I am focusing on implementing the main features of the forum, including thread lock/unlock, message editing and deletion and so on. While restructuring the code I am also trying to figure out how to introduce smiley themes, and theme hierarchies, as well as how to allow for a native app for smartphones.
Sorry if it is taking this long, I really hoped I would have done it much quicker.

NeXuS wrote on Mon, 23 February 2015 09:27By the way, here's a funny story.
A few years ago I was considering to replace PhpBB with SMF for a forum driven website (the front page would show posts from certain categories in the forum and display them with custom layout and CSS) but decided for FUDforum because of the vastly superior (IMHO) API.
The result is that I am now rewriting FUD. 
So how is that coming along? I just noticed that there was a new release (3.0.9) today. I'm assuming this instance is what the new version looks like.
I always liked FUDforum, preferred it back in the day to things like PhpBB and such, but over the years it looked aged and unmaintained so I didn't seriously consider it over other alternatives that had a more, 'modern' look.
One thing I noticed a couple of years back was that it simply wasn't keeping up with mobile based users in being fully responsive - that's a big deal breaker nowadays, So I'll have to come back in a few and check it on my phone.
Gosh, I don't think I've posted here since Ilia was pushing changes every few days. That guy was a madman coder. Totally awesome. If someone asked for something it would appear a couple of days later. Whatever happened to him anyway? What's the story there?
