ElkArte 1.0.7

[Allan]

Just wanted to post about Elkarte, it started as a fork of SMF 2.1 but has become much better. The core features are great and the developers work hard to add new features and want users want to see. The latest version is 1.0.7 that was just recently released.

Whoa! That's so cool. I really liked SMF back in the day and I'm glad to see someone is giving it a face lift.

I also liked SMF alot, but Elkarte has taken the software 10x greater. They are always adding more to the core features and some really nice addons. There are talks about 2.0 and adding inline coding, which I have never seen in free software.

Oh snap that sounds awesome. I'll have to look into it.

I spent the past few weeks using Vanilla, FluxBB, PhpBB, and MyBB, to develop the prototype of a would-be micro-forum for my site, at the same time as I am learning how to use forum software. After reading the present thread, I decided to install ElkArte, and try to see if it would not be of help to me. The only thing I did with the product so far is to peruse the menu structure to see what all they have, and what strikes me is how well everything is structured.

Thank you all for this great forum at websiteforums.org. I'd be very interested in hearing anyone's experience or thoughts about this product.

Just wanted to update that ElkArte 1.1 is now available.

I've never heard of this before, but it looks pretty nice. I'm sure plenty of frustrated SMF users have moved over to this.

There are a couple of them that moved over as plugin developers and some help on the core project.
