Hello,
Well, I have used vBulletin, IPB, phpBB3, SMF and MyBB!
in all of them the best is vBulletin! = 150 USD!
2nd preference is ; phpBB3!
—-p——–h———-p———-B———B———3—-
Well, I have one suggestion for you guys! your software is very very very GOOD! there is just one very small thing missing!
FORUM DOWN!
The easy Mods Installation!!!!! (Yeh) like MyBB is a very low level software according to Golden version of phpBB3. But their reason to be famous is Because they have an easy way of installing Mods.
Like suppose if i want to install any MOD! there will be a php script file that i will upload to ; inc/plugins and go to Admin CP activate the Plug INS! BOOM!
well!, I will still say that phpBB3 is a best software as i was reading it’s a Most software that is used in forums! very good. But if the developers will give a small attention on this system! it will be very GOOD!
Because some one who becomes afraid in opening if BIG php files and HTML files (Like Me) leaves phpBB and goes to other easy softwarez! because almost all of your plugins install by editing of a set of php scripts right?? and if you miss even one letter then BOOM!
so i really want the Developer team of phpBB to think about this!
hope i will get some good answers SOON!
