vBulletin and SMF

[Porky]

Mind me asking which mods you want that aren't available? All too often questions go unanswered I agree. But the support Team could really use more support members. Unfortunately it doesn't seem that there are too many people that want to help, or are qualified to do it.

I try to help where I can, But when it comes to getting into the code I don't know all that. Know when someone does not now how to use a feature and one of you support guru's haven't answered I try to answer the question as best as possible. Just wish I knew more about the Code! And that might be the reason that alot more don't help on the support part.

The only way to learn how to code is to jump in and do it. Create a test site and keep a backup in a folder somewhere than practice doing stuff.

Wanna learn what different functions do use this reference:

ill tell u guys 1 thing thoug

I still believe SMf can EASILY beat the pants off vB only if they paid a bit more attention to the user end and mod creation to offer more features

The user interface of SMf can use some polishing

And one things for sure - TP is just unbeatable!!!
And im not just saying that because im team, seriously, the ease TP provides for webmasters is unparalled with any other system may it be vbadvances, mkportal, joomla or whatever!

I don't get it because i am on his forum now.  And it's say he have a SMF 1.1.1 and running with TinyPortal v0.9.7-191106.

A vboad look like a SMF?

    Well, I do stand corrected on several mods that, last I looked, had not been made compatible with 1.1.1. I suppose 1.1.1 is still new so it takes time, but the location mod, inline attachments mod, member awards mod, and a few others I have still don't show compatible with 1.1.1 yet so it has kept me from upgrading, unless maybe some of these have been included in 1.1.1 so I guess I better look.

    Don't get me wrong, I know it takes time to convert things and it takes time to build a strong and deep support staff to answer every little whine us script challenged users have. It is this understanding that SMF is new and still growing which kept me using the software regardless of the bumps along the way. I have never complained about my support questions going unanswered at times. I do eventually figure it out either from people here at TP which I know I shouldn't , or from countless hours of searching. The whole, use the search to find your answer is sometimes annoying because even though the search function works pretty good, you still will get 20 pages of irrelevant material to wade through depending on what you are searching for.

    Aku listed a pretty good example of mods and there are others like a knockoff of myspace used for member profiles, a recipe mod, advanced shopping cart mods, etc etc. Not only do they have some very nice mods, but many standalone applications are already ported for VB and have extensive support for implementing into a VB forum. I am seeing more and more coming around with support for SMF, but again, VB has been around much longer so to compare the two isn't fair to SMF. In another couple years run the two side by side and then post a comparison thread.
