Nice link, Thanks! I have also found that mybb is harder to code for and has a less stable code base.
I have to disagree. This Comparison matrix shows SMF as having more moderation and anti-spam features than myBB, and I find the SMF code-base a whole lot easier to handle than MyBB.
But that little surprise is coming along nicely. Not sure when exactly I'll finish, but it will be a good surprise![]()

Hi, the link you provided had outdated information. Check it out again it has been updated as of today.Originally Posted by Brett

Well, technically their SMF info is outdated as well. 2.0 has more features than listed, is free, and is of the same quality as vB or IPB.
myBB still doesn't allow WAP access, still no pruning or archiving, need a plugin for the WYSIWYG (SMF 2.0 doesn't have plug-in, it's built in). I still see no reason to switch to myBB.
yeah, plus it looks like myBB is just a hack of older phpBB code with AJAX thrown in....
I'm not trying to make you switch, I was just adding a point. Although I do beg to differ, mybb was built from scratch, however mybb is still very young and it just needs some time to improve. Btw, I love the e-mail system, I can't wait to get it running on my server.Originally Posted by Brett

Good, cuz I wasn't going toI'm not trying to make you switch
I know. And I was just adding my point that before I settled on SMF I ended up starting with phpBB (for like a week or two) while I researched better forum software. I even considered purchasing IPB perpetual license or vB Owned license. Ultimately I settled on SMF due to the cost, and how close it was to those other "enterprise" grade softwares.I was just adding a point
I'm sure in time it will either grow to out-do phpBB, or it will flounder much like many of the other BB software titles out there. It's a shame to see the projects die, but really lots of development needs to be put in so it can stay "ahead of the game".Although I do beg to differ, mybb was built from scratch, however mybb is still very young and it just needs some time to improve
Great!! Glad you love the system.Btw, I love the e-mail system, I can't wait to get it running on my server.
Nice forum, waiting to see if questions are answered.

Poor support, very very bad english from some of the users that sometimes just make their posts unreadable.
Poor documentation and reference material.
SoulManager: Thanks for the honest input.
As for the support, not everyone here is a developer, and many users don't know PHP very well. So some try to help out where they can
English isn't everyones first language, so sometimes you have to decipher meaning. That doesn't mean that I'd like people posting in their native language, but if they want to, they can. I'd just prefer that if you say something in another language, you try and give an English translation for it.
Documentation and references I can't really do anything about other than say, fix itIt's a wiki, so if you have something you think should be added, feel free to edit the content to enhance it (if you can). This is a community supported project, so the best you can do is participate to make it better

Too many dumb questions from newbies. I think RC needs better documentation!
