Phoenix Board :New Forum System

Most of you, Joomla lovers, might aware of the fact that Fireboard Forum's Developers are now gone. The project is abandoned.

Fireboard 1.0.x is still in ALPHA stage with hell lot of BUGs and its actually for Joomla 1.0.x platform and Joomla 1.x (LEGACY)
Fireboard 2.0, which is meant for Joomla 1.x (NATIVE) is just a MYTH.



I have decided to take over the project.
It will be based on Freboard and will start from FB1.0.5RC2.
But this time, We will be using Community Builder's API so that the Forum system is Joomla Independent. That is both Joomla 1.0.x (NATIVE) as well as Joomla 1.x (NATIVE)

Wow Fireboard is done? That sucks. Actually my fireboard works pretty well so ar.

I have limited time to help but I will if I can. Are there any other branches?

I don't know whether this is true, as this alert message is placed upon the forum.

The FireBoard forum component development is still going on. In order to get better, FireBoard will be moved from the Best of Joomla website.
During this transition period, the forum in Best of Joomla will be closed to new posts.

I use various forum scripts. SMF is my favorite. PHPBB3 is the second best. Both are not truly integrated with Joomla without great hassle and do not integrate to the extent where Community Builder works in unison with them. Agora, which is a native Joomla forum component, is very promising, boasting group permissions capabilities. Fireboard does not have group permissions, as far as I know (other than Group Jive), but it integrates well Community Builder and includes plugins to support this.

With that said, yet another board simply adds to the pain of figuring out how to develop a cohesive website, especially one that is community driven. Thanks for your effort, though. I will keep an eye on it.

I agree with you.

Well I can say only one thing - with your kind help, if the project runs successfully, there will be ONE Forum System you have to choose if you want it to be fully Joomla Native, powerful, GJ integrated and FREE.
