bungpeng Posted April 9, 2003 Posted April 9, 2003 May I know is there any ASP.NET forum available with full source code and free? I know in http://www.asp.net got, but I don't like the interface and feature, I like something like this forum, it very attractive and beautiful. Quote
*Experts* Volte Posted April 9, 2003 *Experts* Posted April 9, 2003 This forum was written in PHP, as were pretty much all the other ones. If you want your own interface and features, why don't you download and modify Microsoft's ASP.NET forum? Quote
Leaders quwiltw Posted April 9, 2003 Leaders Posted April 9, 2003 Have you installed AspNetForums? It's built with "skinning" in mind. Just create a new "skin" for it if you don't like the way it looks. Look in the skins subdirectory of the install directory. Quote --tim
bungpeng Posted April 10, 2003 Author Posted April 10, 2003 But the features are different right? I not sure about AspNetForum, but I notice this forum got a lot of features which can benefit user Quote
*Experts* Volte Posted April 10, 2003 *Experts* Posted April 10, 2003 If you want to use this forum, you need a PHP host with mySql, and about $80 for a 1-year license. http://www.vbulletin.com. Remember, You get what you pay for. AspNetForum is free. vBulletin costs lots of money. Think about it. Quote
bungpeng Posted April 10, 2003 Author Posted April 10, 2003 No, I mean something similar, not exactly this forum, because I will prefer ASP.NET forum rather than others (like php in this forum). AspNetForum is the only choice? Quote
Leaders quwiltw Posted April 10, 2003 Leaders Posted April 10, 2003 AspNetForum is the only choice? No, but it's likely the most mature ASP.NET based forum you'll get that comes with the source code. Why don't you build in the features you feel are missing and post it in their Code Share forum thus giving back to the community and making it a better product? Otherwise, if you want commercially mature software, do as VolteFace has suggested and pay commercial prices. Quote --tim
bungpeng Posted April 10, 2003 Author Posted April 10, 2003 Yes, you are right. Of course before I do it, I need to make sure there are not any available, right? Actually I did developed a forum in ASP but not much features compare with forum nowadays... Quote
