SMF hands down in my book.

IPB was a good little product but to pay for it when there is such a good quality product like SMF would make no sense at all.

SMF all the way, it is still developed and supported so security issues will be addressed, IPB 1.3 i dont "think" is supported any longer

SMF because it has a community behind it now, it will be updated, and if some security risk comes along then odds are you'll be protected. I'm waiting for someone to figure out how to exploit IPB 1.2-1.3 here soon because they could cause a lot of headaches. I try to stay away from software (free or not) that isn't updated or at least I know there will be a patch if an exploit is found.

but the problem is smf is that i cant find Topic Multi-Moderation option like in IPB

is there any mod like that in smf ?

anyways the Topic Multi-Moderation allows me to combine moderation actions to create easy to use shortcuts to several moderation options. like if i have a support board in 1 click i can lock the topic and add a prefix to the title and add a reply telling the one who asked the question that his topic is solved as that easy


Is there any mod in smf like that ?

IPB dont support 1.2 or 1.3 anymore and unless you get it directly from IPS it is illegal.

SMF all the way.
