k4bb Forum Software

[Immersion]

Hey, check out this new forum software here.
It has everything that vb has execpt that currently doesnt have any mods. It is still in BETA but it is really good. So check it out.

Looks promising! Have you tried it yourself? I'm interested to see if there are already forums around running it.

 

[Immersion]

yes i have tried it. Go to here to see it
for the community and see the forum at work.

Looks very nice...I'll be following this

Your second link is dead though, Immersion

I tried this and ran into nothing but problems. I installed it, and then the admin panel was blank. I went to the support forums and search for "themes" hoping to find a source for free themes. That found 4 matches, nothing which was about free ones. I then was going to post my question about the admin section, but decided I should search first. It brought up the same 4. Then I searched for "boobies" just to see what would happen, and again the same 4.

I thought I should register and post about my problem with the admin section and the results from the search. After I got the confirmation email, I clicked the link. It said invalid confirmation key. I decided to then just post as a guest. I seen "guest" posts. It said I had access to reply, but not to post new topics. I replied with my findings and got an error, unauthorized to post. I could not find a way to post on their forum, the community support forum. I can't get it to work, so I decided to go with something else.

It does look promising, but I plan on waiting for a stable release.

 

[Immersion]

yes, i know there were some errors in the previous releases but the current beta one is good to go. The only problem is they are still working on the user management sytem on the admin panel but the rest of the forum works.
*note* this is only one guys work mainly

I tried it about a week ago. Has then been a new release since then? I ended up going to myBB, which has a stable release. I wouldn't mind checking out k4BB, but if there is only one guy working on it, it may take a while. Plus, with all the mods and themes available for other forum scripts, I don't really see the plus side in going with K4BB.

 

[Immersion]

well the only plus side is that it has all the features of vb and ipb but its free.

 

[def1]

the search results arent accurate

After you log in, it says: you are already logged in. Imagine the horror of a person who doesn't know how to alter index.php?act=login back to index.php!!!

Looks promising. Unfortunately, it isn't.

You can't judge a book by its cover...

I mean you can't download forum software by its interface...

 

[bbalegere]

I don't think it is very popular.
Anyway I will try it out when I have time.

If the cover was ripped off and the first page was 179, you probably wouldn't pick that book to read.....the forum script has errors. The main demo on their site doesn't work, so you know it won't work on your site. There's no reason to download it now, unless you want to be a beta tester for them.

I'm happy with the forum software I'm using at the moment, but I'll keep an eye on this one and see how it goes -if it gets popular, I might switch

 

[Immersion]

ok for all of you non believers it does work. http://www.k4bb.org/k4/index.php
That is the community forum and its running of k4bb

 

[sjaguar13]

That's the one I have been talking about. Try searching for two different things. You will see that the results for the first thing show up for every search after that. They aren't accurate. When I tried to sign up there to report the bug, I ran into even more problems....Are you affiliated with them in any way?

 

[Immersion]

no im not, i just really like the software. They dont even have any affiliate things.

I meant that more like are you friends with the programmer guy. It seems like you like the beta version a whole lot.

 

[Immersion]

lol ive talked to him like twice on msn, if you consider that being freinds then yeah but i wouldnt really.

 

[zanzan]

its looks nice.. but there is many bugs as most of u says.. just gotta wait for the stable version to be release
