DruBB

I've just been looking through the issues in the forum module queue, thought for a laugh I'd have a look at the last one: http://drupal.org/node/9729

Is it alright to mark ancient stuff like that fixed? I checked and Drupal 6 adds a unique id to each forum row, so using CSS to attach an icon would be trivial. Just wanted to check that old stuff like that isn't there for a reason. :)

Okay,

I've been mulling this over for a long time now, Drupal's current forums simply aren't adequate. But what do WE as the community want from DruBB? What is it we need?

Personally:

Look and Feel - the forum needs to look and feel more ... natural it needs to be easy to use, let's face it forums are community tools, who has a community which contains users who can code HTML? Who can navigate confusing multi-level hierarchies? I certainly don't.

Hi,

I know that there are thousands of topics like that on the net, but I would like to know what's the status in our group.

Please type your favorite BB software, and please write why you like it, and what you hate in it.

I personally use Invision Power Board 1.3, but I hate it. There's nothing good about it, the only reason that I use it the all my moderators like it, and don't want to deal with phpBB. (I can't wait to surprise them with DruBB) :)

Please share your experience,
Have a nice day.

What is the current status of the module developement project of tounano? Also have there been more updates regarding the 'module distibution'?

I am really interested in taking the Drupal forums to the next level, both on a personal level as well as possible business level.

-Thanks

Hi,

I am still developing the extended forum module, but I have now big project at my work so the forum module project won't be ready by February, but I hope that I'll release the pre-alpha version by March. And I hope to post screen shots as soon as I can.

Anyway, I got an issue that I would like to discuss with you about.

Hi,

I am interested about your favorite way to post your forum topics/comments.

I'll classify it into 3 categories:
1. The way it done in Drupal/IPB, simple text area maybe with BB Code/Html
2. The way it done in vBulletin. Cool plain text editor, with user friendly BB Code/Smileys buttons and wysiwyg option.
3. Using advanced wysiwyg editors like TinyMCE or FCKEditor

Link to TinyMCE demo:

Which of the wysiwyg editors you like more? TinyMCE or FckEditor?

I think my favorite way is like it done in vBulletin, but what's your favorite option? What will fit best the DruBB project?
