Title: Good portal and easy?
Post by: senshin on November 18, 2004, 01:02:53 AM
sorry, i am very noob and still can't get it.

I seek a good portal for forum, you know, that it look like a homepage with a forum.
But i can't find anything, if i find i can't install like the mambo thing with interupted files, and all other look 2 hard.

Please, i need some help to setup a portal for my forum, so it looks like a homepage (general news and few links.

Hope someone will help this noob!, i like simple machines very much and i dont wanna go back to that phpbb

Hi,

There isn't a solution out of the box yet. Most developers are working on make there solution perfect before making it to mod I think. Next week I will have a look at the solutions that are ready and see if I can manage to pull that postings out of the hundreds, that give a good manual for installing.
I will install all on my new smf site thats not ready yet.

Please post you're (off topic) second question in the support forums.

Greetings,
Abedie

Hi,

I'm very anxious about this. Sine Invision started asking money portalbuilders working for fun dropped their developments. Like Kevin from Yauws who did a great job. I have 3 portal running 'as is' by this. So, I need to look for new software. Checking this link with preying eyes.

BTW, I do not mind paying a fee for forumsoftware. But only when proper portalsoftware is attached to it.

There are (as far as I know) options out of the box now:
MKportal (beta) and Mambo(stable)
(see the List (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=18370.0).)

I hope this helps,
greetings Abedie
