Rapid Forum Component is here!
Monday, 05 May 2008

After 3 long months of development and a painful coupla weeks smashing bugs, we are proud to offer you Rapid Forum - a simple, light Joomla forum component that's unlike any other Joomla message board. Please visit the demo (you must login to post), or register to download.

It's not yet available on extensions.joomla.org, as we would like to see at least 10 sites running it before we launch to the larger community. So please report your bugs! We really want to know about the bugs!

So what is Rapid Forum? Rapid Forum is a simple forum designed to cultivate conversation online.

It flows like a chat room, though messages are saved and organized like a traditional message board. It's design to be easy to use and light -- no more clicking through categories to find the topics you're looking for -- it's all right there in front of you.

  • Conversations are tagged by topic but sorted by date (most recent first).
  • Conversations are searchable.
  • Conversations offer indented threads for replies, and for replies to replies.
  • Users can choose to view conversations posted to any combination of topics.
  • Users canchoose to save any post to receive an email for each reply are posted.
  • Administrators can unpublish or delete any conversation.
  • Administrators can choose to make the entire board anonymous so usernames aren't tied to posts (great for medical forums or sensative topics).
  • Administrators can add/edit topics.
  • Administrators make Usernames linkable to Communinity Builder profiles (CB must be enabled).
  • Please post all bugs to our JoomlaSimple support forum.
We would like to thank the developers that made this possible including Dung (Vietnam), Giao (Vietnam), Sean (Ireland), Taras (Canada), and Vitaly (Maldova).

Please register, login and then you will see a "downloads" link at the top. It's the only file in the "Rapid Forum" directory.
