There were quite a few complaints in the forum about Zoho Forum (although it seems a lot better than using Google Groups IMHO).
What would you use for forums for a technical discussion about an open source platform, if you didn't use Google Groups or Zoho Forum?
- jeresig 17y agoThankfully most of the complaints are already resolved or are in the process of being resolved. A BIG reason why we ended up choosing Zoho discussions was their willingness to work with the team and accomodate our concerns. They even did all the hard work of importing all the old google groups posts and the old jqueryhelp.com forum. So yeah, it's a bit quirky at the moment but I fully expect the issues to get ironed out either before launch or in the next couple weeks.
- petewarden 17y agoI'm a big fan of Vanilla forums: completely open-source, they were in Techstars last year along with me, and overall it's the nicest system I've used. The only drawback is that it's focused on web use rather than email, though there is some mail functionality. http://vanillaforums.org/ http://vanillaforums.org/
- antirez 17y agoVanilla is great, but really not what you want for a tech forum IMHO, because it's very web-based indeed, and encourages use of HTML and images, a thing that I like a lot for random forums but not for tech ones.
