SMF Forums

Simple Machine Forum software was put into production on June 12th 2008 and is accessable via http://www.seattleeva.org/smf. The Forums Discussion page was used to discuss and vet the implementation of new Forums services for SEVA.

Software to Evaluate

Here are some forum applications to look into:

  • phpbb (phpbb2 is an available ubuntu package) phpbb3 is also available.
  • PunBB[1] is a fast and lightweight PHP-powered discussion board.
  • Simple Machines Forum SMF is a free, professional grade software package for online community.

A maillist to forum conduit which may come in handy for integrating the maillist into the forum:

Also available at the server but not in use by SEVA:

  • wordpress is already installed and in use at the server at other domain names.

Just an handy site for looking into CMS:

  • CMS Matrix A list of various CMS (Content Management Systems)
