good site for building an online forum??
This is what I've tried and found in search so far - I joined Vbulletin and did the 24 hour trial (when they had it, or it's not an option now?) and messed with it for about 2 hours. This didn't give me enough confidence to purchase the product and like hinted above they either stopped doing the free trial, or you only get one shot. I searched and found a free forum builder site called forumotion.com. Been messing with it but something seems off about it to me. Any ever use this start to finish? Results? The second free forum building site I found was Simple Machines. I haven't messed with this yet at all and hesitant to sign up with out a recommendation.. Sooo, has anyone ever used this site? Any other sites or advice would be highly appreciated!!!! Thanks in advance.

Proboards seemed a bit more tech, I'll go through it later on.

proboards gives you more options and flexibility than zeta for sure, also look at the admin cp, you will notice that on zeta, the tabs are redundant being at the top and on the right. then there's the aspect that some actions can not be performed unless you use the tabs on the right vs the top. which is idiotic IMO. as for proboards, everything is just there and even if you sit there in drunken stooper it's easy to work commands and edit your HTML and so on. Also, take a look in the help forum for proboards, you are bond to find every answer you are looking for there. |
