Sticky List of Kunena Features

fxstein wrote: Just as far as the RC "rule" - its up to developers, at least one of the forums you listed never had Alpha or Beta but only RC, the other one you are quoting is running FireBoard as their support forum.
We wont be doing that. We run what we write, Kunena 1.6 is closer to be stable than some of the RC candidates you might see out there. As you can see we have upgraded kunena.com today to 1.6 and its here to stay.

Anyway I hope you will be pleased once you get to install it. We think it is a major step for the open source world around Joomla.

This rule exists, because all DEVs pray: Don't use an alpha or beta on your live site . Therefore I don't install them on installiert.de - to set a good example. The only exceptional I made was Ninjaboard (because there exists no other version), but it is clearly marked as beta.

EDIT: I have just checked Kunena 1.5.12. installation, the feature insert modules (like in Kunena 1.6. via BBCode) is not existing.

As I said before Kunena 1.6 is here to stay. Eventually it will make it onto your comparison list. No need to give us an exception.

I think you will like the features - but in the end the best feature list will not make or break Kunena - its the community. We have seen many forums come and go, because they where driven by a single person - more or less.

Kunena is about Community and Open Source not shining individuals - as great as they might be. We are playing an open hand and that includes a public SVN and wiki for everybody to see what is being done and worked on.

Kunena is not driven by a company or by paid add ons. We don't want to rewrite what others have done under GPL. Joomla 1.6 comes with a greta ACL and we will support it. Community Builder and JomSocial are first class community solutions, we wont waste our time writing another version.

We invite all Open Source contributors to join in - and many have done so.

Again thanks for all the work you have and are doing for the Open Source community!

That's not worth mentioning, there are hunred of thousands (or millions?) other people doing the same voluntary work, while others generate nice profit with OS. But however, thank you for your polite words

I checked both items, these are features of 1.6, if I am not mistaken. The comparison table lists the features of the current stable Kunena version 1.5.12.


I would be glad to revise the table listing for Kunena 1.5.12, so please cerberus tell me, what features are wrong in your opinion and @Matias, what features I am missing? (As last-mentioned only features a user can see, if he explores front- and backend, no background knowledges).

Thanks for your assistance - I myself doublechecked the listed features and can't find mistakes in it.

btw: The automatic notification does not work on kunena.com (at least for me). Not for PMs and not for subscribed threads.

here is your table in word format corrected

Thank you for your efforts. But at the first difference

Profile display right/left adjustable <- you have set this to YES

I realize that you are listing the features of Kunena 1.6.



But the table on installiert.de lists the features of Kunena 1.5.12. You can login as admineng pw: demo there and look in front- and backend for the features of Kunena 1.5.12.

Would you have the kindness to rework your *.doc with features of Kunena 1.5.12 only? Thanky you very much.

function can be done in K1.5 with one change to teh css file, there is even a how to avalible on this very forum on how to do it and yes they are for K1.5 and NOT K1.6 if i did K1.6 i could tick nearly every one of your boxes.
