Thread: Suggest forums software for postgresql?
Can anyone suggest good forums software to use with postgresql? I want to integrate the forums users into my website's user base with a view. I know of FudForums but it doesn't work well with views (the upgrade script in particular chokes very badly on them) and seems kinda buggy in general. The other I know of is phpBB but it has a bad security track record, broke pretty badly when I tried to integrate it, and just isn't as feature rich as I'd like. Can anyone recommend any other forums software that works well?

You could look at w-agora. It's not too bad, and best of all, does the whole nested threads thing that phpbb and so many other bb systems lack. A lot of the docs are in french, fyi... http://sourceforge.net/projects/w-agora

Drupal has a forums module and works well with PostgreSQL. http://drupal.org John DeSoi, Ph.D. http://pgedit.com/ Power Tools for PostgreSQL
