What tool is used for the forum ? by Giulia on 02-22-2007 at 07:48 PM

Hi eeryone, especially to Patchou
What tool is used for the forum ? VBulletin ? Do you have to pay to use this tool ?


RE: What tool is used for the forum ? by WDZ on 02-22-2007 at 07:50 PM

It's MyBB, and it's free. :P

We're using a really old version here. The new version is better...

Thanks for the answer. I didn't know MyBB, is it a Canadian tool ? Why don't we use the new one ?

It's a world wide tool, and you can add as many different languages as you like.

The answer to why don't we use the new one.. well.. one admin has been lazy and delayed the upgrade.. *cough* wdz *cough*

It's international. The developers live in different countries. :P

Because I haven't upgraded yet. I'm working on it though.

Why is it so long to upgrade ?

BTW, what's the difference between update and upgrade ? :$ (my English isn't so good :$)

Its probably just takes long to upgrade or mybe because he's lazy :P, and there's no difference between update and upgrade.

in this case there is no difference. if you were talking about a computer though, updating it would be software, and upgrading would be hardware

The reason it's taking so long is because there have been quite a few modifications done to the forum, and because the person (WDZ) that takes care of these things takes too long ;)
