Project Description

POP Forums v9 is a forum app for ASP.NET MVC used as the core for several sites maintained by the author. It is not a science project, but a long-term commitment to great community.

The project goals of v9 are:
  • Use the database schema from v8.x with as few changes as possible.
  • Use ASP.NET MVC instead of Webforms.
  • Make the project open source under Ms-PL.
  • Be the best ASP.NET-based forum.
  • Not duplicate UBB's 1998 UI for the Nth time.

More information:

Setup:

To set it up, check the installation instructions in the documentation section.

Read the post on how to use the Scoring Game in your ASP.NET MVC app.

Update: 1/26/12

Check out the new release: v9.2.1! This new version includes localization capability and the scoring game, as well as a few fixes. The only change from v9.2.0 to v9.2.1 is the addition of the Spanish resource file. You don't need to update unless you want Spanish.

Do you speak English and another language? We want to make POP Forums globally useful. Starting with v9.2, the app is easily localized. We have volunteers translating to Spanish, Dutch and German, and we'd love help for additional languages. Drop Jeff an e-mail to jeff@popw.com for more information.

Note that our demo forum has moved. You can find that here: http://popforums.com/Forums
