New Forum Software
« on: July 26, 2017, 10:37:51 AM »
Because I don't have enough on my plate... I am sick and tired of supporting SMF! It's crap.

If anyone has any experience with other forum software, let me know! I'm looking for our next one.

I've used phpBB in the past, but that was years ago.  It was fairly straight forward at the time, and had the ability to integrate authentication with a lot of other stuff if you wanted add-ons (which you probably don't).

I'm looking at Fluxbb which is pretty lightweight and secure, from what I've read, and also easy to import our db of posts.
