Not sure what I'm going to do with phpbb3. I couldn't get a javascript snippet working the other day, though I want to redesign the design.
Yeah converting from PHPBB3 doesn't store group permissions so its actually easier to setup as a blank forum and when converting you have to apply some patches to get passwords and such to work >.<

Look what I stumbled upon:
http://mybboard.net/I've tried the software, it's simple and looks nice. It may lack some features but it uses lovely ajax on a lot of stuff and may look nicer
Also, their next version, which is MyBB 1.6 will have a lot of features that most popular boards have I guess.

Karl, i beg of you, do NOT use MyBB. Trust me.
I won't complain if you go with vB if you stay clear of MyBB

I'll just make a super awesome template/style from scratch then, and update it along with future phpBB3 updates based on their changelogs. I'll do this shortly after mindfudge is done
.
Guess I'll do it file by file and make it inherit from prosilver until it's complete :O

PHPBB3: The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words:
What use is a search function if you can't search for what you need
I'm running the LifeTimeClan forum with SMF and wouldn't trade it for anything else.

Too bad converting from SMF to phpBB3 is a bitch
Think what I want to try to do with the phpBB3 template is to implement some more ajax

Can I just add something I have only just found out.
phpBB3 is currently the most secure forum software out at the moment. According to security firm Secuna, it currently has 0 unpatched flaws, whereas vB has 6, SMF has 7 and MyBB has 24 security holes..

VBulletin FTW. If you switch to PHPBB3 Karl... I just cant explain how fail even the best PHPBB3 forum would be. Just an opinion.

The forum is phpBB3.
