Creative forums is a professional free open-source forum and portal engine, it is designed to make forums simple fast and easy and also look professional and for professional coders/programmers it is also simple to edit the codes because of the simple structure we use. I also try to make this forum engine the safest and easiest engine around the internet. I also want this engine to become simple to edit with theme editors, selectors, and visualy nice page, category,… editor. This engine will also be easy extendable with the possibility of mods with this feature you will be able to add things to your portal/forum with only a few clicks for example i wanna add a slideshow/carousel i just type in "Carousel" in the searchbox and i find some pretty nice mods i pick one out go to the settings and select the images and DONE.DEMO (not functional):[http://creativeforums.uphero.com/](http://creativeforums.uphero.com/)Download latest version:[https://github.com/MrDamaru/CreativeForums/releases](https://github.com/MrDamaru/CreativeForums/releases)the team:- jasper700/Santa-Clause (Owner and lead-programmer)My skype and main email address: [email protected]Github:[https://github.com/MrDamaru/CreativeForums](https://github.com/MrDamaru/CreativeForums)My website:[http://www.jasperd.net78.net/index.php](http://www.jasperd.net78.net/index.php)Donate:[![](https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/NL/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif)](https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=3M2GLXPQW9VD6&lc=NL&item_name=Creative%20Forums¤cy_code=EUR&bn=PP-DonationsBF%3Abtn_donateCC_LG.gif%3ANonHosted)Licensing:>!

kibbelz Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 It looks impressing however no one would use it in comparison to larger forum makers which are more userfriendly and advanced such as SMF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santa-clause Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 Actually the screenshots i've posted here are without javascript and are in the real early stages of the forum/portal engine but now it actually looks really awesome.But kibbelz your correct it's not really that user friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAubryTV Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 A bit off topic post, but how exactly do forum engines like so work? Is it hosted off of a remote server, if so then do you just sync the hostnames to the main IP? Argh, reading up on these so I can get a decent looking forum for my game when it goes public.

Is it hosted off of a remote server, if so then do you just sync the hostnames to the main IP? Argh, reading up on these so I can get a decent looking forum for my game when it goes public.Well i just use php, html and mysql and a bit of javascriptI encrypt passwords and stuff with bcrypt, encrypt some other important data too.But it's simply a call for data from the mysql server and send updated topics,posts and new topics and postsThe boards and forums simply get the hole list from the mysql server with boards for the forum homepage.And for the boards it gets a list of all Topics and limits it to 20 or more (depends on user settings)and for paging in boards i simply use a number in the url with the page and it starts from that page * 20 (or other user defined limit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
