bbPress finally gets children forums.

Forums can now be grouped hierarchically (that is, forums can have “children”). To organize your forums, go to Content -> Forums in your bbPress’ admin panels, click “Edit Forum Order” and drag the rows around: up, down, left and right.

Just discovered fuzzylime CMS, formerly called PHP-Update. It's designed as a full featured Content Management System, with blogs and image galleries and polls and mailing lists. Unfortunately, they don't have a features page that lists what it can do.

The forum, however, is a separate system from the portal. You can find out more about the fuzzylime forum here

I feel so deceived. Dirty deceived, even.

I few weeks ago I heard about a new forum system called RadiantBoard. It was promised to be 'revolutionary' which to me means setting a new standard.

So after some waiting, RadiantBoard went live.

And it was a huge disappointment.

Just discovered WP-United, a mod for the phpbb forum software that integrates the users of WordPress with phpbb.

It actually seems to be very advanced. I wonder if this will be the standard other forums use for integration.

Check out their Features page to see the details.

BlackDonnellysForum.com

A forum discussing the new NBC show The Black Donnellys. (I'm registered there as silverwing.)

I'm looking into a new forum for this site. I'm currently using mybb but want something more integrated with wordpress. Vanilla is an options, as is bbpress (which has a new release.)

So if my forums go down suddenly, I'll be setting up something different.

Created a little plugin for bbPress that lets you change the size of the words in the tagcloud.

And that's all it does.

(And this is odd since not not even sure if I'm going to switch to bbPress. But it done and released.)

The text of it is here. It can also be downloaded here (zip file).

DeluxeBB (and their feature's list.)

Yet another forum!

My major problem with their set up (and this doesn't have to do with the script itself, but how they set it up) is they require people to register an account to SEARCH thier site.

Not 100% sure that it's 100% accurate or that it'll be current, but here's the Ultimate bbPress Guide.

There are also a couple links there to plugins that may help in the database sharing with WordPress.

Have you ever wanted a forum for your WordPress site? A forum that doesn't just look like your site, but uses the same user database? It's something that I've wanted, and so I did some searching and playing around and have found the following forum scripts that have an integration with WordPress.
