similar to: popular open source forum software?

I've been trying several message board software (PHPBB, etc) and haven't found one that's as feature rich as I'd like. I used to run Ikonboard but have had some issues with that. Does anyone have a great recommendation for an awesome message board with loads of features and is open-source (free)? Thanks Scott

I need to quickly setup a temporary BBS/message board system for the fires in San Diego. We just want people to post if they have rooms available. So I'm looking for a a very simple and easy to get running BBS system. Any suggestions?

I am sure this has been asked before, but why not use Google newsgroup or at least some forum BBS software instead of this cumbersome mailing list process? -- Costas Menico Meezon Software Corp 201-224-8111 costas@meezon.com --

Hi all, I''ve got a simple bulletin board type of code in part of my application, and I want to implement phpbb-like tags for users to add to posts. I strip HTML out of the posts, of course. I can handle things like [b] => <b> with a simple gsub, but there''s one that is throwing me for a loop. I want users to be able to quote other users, and have the quoted text show

I would like to knock up a phpbb forum with a rails application. I wanted to do this as I want to use ActiveRecord to crawl through the user database in the rails app. Is there a way to do this - on the same domain name and server... Or does it depend how the server is setup? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I just tried to register for the wine forum, and noticed several really annoying things about the process: 1. The "Register" link is kind of hard to find. Normally it is just next to the "Forgot password" link. 2. No SSL. 3. You emailed me my password! Argh! This is a terrible idea for obvious reasons, and also implies: 4. Passwords aren't stored hashed. Seriously.

Hi folks, the volunteer admins for forum.winehq.org have been deleting an increasing amount of spam lately, and it seems clear that we need to update the forum software to a new release with better antispam features. The catch is, the mailing list gateway plugin is not compatible with the new version of the forum. It looks like the users are split about 90% on the forum and about 10% on the

This is kind of a tricky problem. I have a forum (simplemachines) containing all of the users for my RoR app. The question is, how would I authenticate a user of a foreign app before giving them a session with the RoR app? (It''s not possible in this case to create a new ''user'' table in the rails app) Thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi Guys, So creating a forums application seems like something that rails can handle easily and well, and whatever implementation that came to fruition would be head and shoulders above existing products like vBulliten and phpBB. Even the existing rails forums are using php-based forum products! An insult if you ask me. So my question -- is there any current development of a rails-based

Hello, I'm looking for a simple web-based forum for Centos 3.x or 4.x.

Hi CentOS lovers, i have already sent this email to [www-devel] but still no answer. What i propose to the comunnity is the creation of a full featured forum.
