Reply To: New Forum Software questions not in Help/FAQs

[JasonBModerator @jasonb]

About right Ketan, WordPress & Buddypress & BBpress make up the basics which seemed cheap/free at the time but trying to get them all talking together is a problem. When I first saw what we might get my initial comment wa sthat the software may suit a small club or group and wa snot upto the job here.

Yes as soon as it was made live the amount of Bots just made the server crash and is why Cloadflare etc has been implemented. Couple of days we were testing before going live it did not have the problems but still not very user friendly

Yes it needs extra plug ins for even the basics that a proper forum program has such as a pluging for useful latest posts, posts since last visit and mark as read etc
