Help needed from smf experts here to let me choose between smf and mybb
MC73:
I tried mybb out a couple of years ago on forum that i had, just to see what it was about .... I personally didn't like the features that it had and smf was alot easier, IMHO. From what I wanted to do with my forum, it would have taken me a while to learn mybb the way that I was used to smf. The mods that I was wanting from mybb ( since I'm not Code expert ) was going to cost me quite a bit of $$. Besides from voluntary $$ that I have personally sent to members that I wanted to say "Thank You to", I still saved alot of money. I'm mighty proud of my small SMF site and I wont change forum types.
but the moral of my rambling post is .... If you are used to mybb, then that is what you are going to be with. Each is their own, both have good people. Try them both.
btw .... I'll take chocolate covered Spinach , lol

I think your better off using a free software for what it is :) You start adding too many modification, you will then run into errors, modifications conflicting with one and other and a horrible day when its time to update the software ;)

it is not that I want to use a free software and look it like a paid software. The powered by mybb or smf is always in the footer.

Is this the reason behind the question?

Not at all.
it is open source software and this is definitely not the reason behind the question.
I wonder what makes you think so?

I have never used neither vB nor MyBB, may I ask you what are the things you miss from vB?
Is it the theme?
Is it some kind of feature?
Is it...?
Thanks! ;)
