Back when Invisionfree was bought out by TapaTalk, I attempted to build a forum system that could be used as a base for a SAAS forum system. I gave up cause it was a massive undertaking. Then I found the project in my archives about a month ago and rewrote the whole forum from scratch.

The result is a new forum based on my own forum software. Right now I don't know what to do with it, so it's just a general/coding discussion forum. Also a good place to test if the forum software will actually hold up to real use.

I tried registering through mobile but the register button didn’t let me. I’ll try again tomorrow on my laptop, but figured to let you know, might be a small issue.

Love what I see so far though. Wish I could make my own software. ☺️

Thanks for the feedback! I may have accidentally messed up the username checks! I have disabled the js checks and it should work now!

Yup, was able to register now.

I actually think this would be great software for a tutorial, news, or blogging style of community. You could create News subsections (Tech, Politics, and etc) and allow either a closed community or users to generate content. It is open and clean enough to look like a sophisticated News website software.

Either way I think it looks great.

I am contemplating releasing it and seeing where it goes lol.
I should probably do a poll or something

Oh, sounds exciting!

This looks very professional! I look forward to more developments! I love seeing people create their own community software from scratch.

Thank you! I still don't know how to run a community so it's probably dead. But I suppose it's a good place to test new ideas in the wild and see if anything breaks.

Well it all depends on when you release the software, when it starts getting used and you being the only one who gives support. The community will follow then. 😜
