YAF Integration
My client has indicated that they are not really happy with the standard forum functionality of Kentico, and as much as I would like to stay with the kentico forum they want to use something a little more feature rich.

Has anyone looked at integrating something like YAF (Yet Another Forum) (http://www.yetanotherforum.net/default.aspx) into Kentico? If so, any pointers or plugins that I should know about?

Thanks

Jay

RE:YAF Integration
Hi Jay,

thanks for the questions.

I have good and less-good message for you:

The good is, that in the upcoming version of KenticoCMS, there will be large improvements in forums. Please see KenticoCMS Roadmap, section Forums, at http://www.kentico.com/cms-asp-net-features/Roadmap.aspx

The new forums will offer features comparable to YAF or phpBB forums.

The only catch is, that you'll have to wait for the release, which is scheduled for this November.

Regards,
Zdenek Cetkovsky

Hi

Thanks for the update. I did know about this, but the brief notes on the roadmap page don't give alot of details.

I think we'll wait till November, review the kentico forums, then make the decisions.

Regards

Jay
