Re: Best forum software

Because the current site is run using microsoft extensions, PHP is out of the question. I did find 'Yet another forum software' that used ASP, but between the database code and difficult webhosting standards for those DB's I thought this route might be easier. The forum hosting company sets up the software, I just have to customize it.

Like you Steve, this isn't being done as a revenue generater, just a feedback forum.

Appreciate the responses so far though.

Re: Best forum software

Your going to find a limited amount of applications if you throw PHP out the window. Good luck on your hunt.

As for PHPBB, this is probably the most attacked forum software on the net. I see more PHPBB sites hacked than just about anything else out there.

Re: Best forum software

Okay. I am not throwing PHP out the window. The reason I'm setting up the forum on a forum hosting service is so I can use PHP (as outlined in my first post). My discussion about the ASP based forum software was in reply to asking why I didn't host my own forum software on the current domain.

I'm expecting to make a choice over the next week between the forum programs mentioned in my original post and am glad to have everyones input:):)
