Vikingboard Description

Free and open source PHP community board Vikingboard is a PHP-based community board designed by the principle of “less is more”, and features a powerful web-based extension-system, a lighting-fast cache system and dynamic web update. Vikingboard is small, but incredibly fast and powerful. Here are some key features of "Vikingboard": · All the standard posting features found in modern discussion boards (post, reply, quote, multiquote, fast reply etc.) · Basic moderation abilities (edit, delete) · A basic search engine (google style) · A powerful installer with FTP capabilities (converters are not written yet, but are in the works) · The board performance will be very good, with high stability and extremely high speeds. Currently, the board index page can be loaded by just one (1!) query, making it extremely fast and cheap on server cpu time · Help pages, guidelines and board rules · Virtually unlimited forums, categories and posts (up to 99.9 billion) · User profiles (w/ postcount, location, IM, interests etc.) · A powerful cache system will ensure the performance mentioned above, and will reduce query time and server load · Tasks and custom modules are supported · Runs on MySQL, but other DBMS will be supported and easily installed via modules · Tranlations will be easy to write · A somewhat limited Admin CP · A somewhat limit User CP, with editing of profile fields, avatar and signature · Powerful BBCode support · Sending, quoting, replying and tracing of PM’s · Member lists · Support for networked forums (multiple login domains), for sharing a forum between different websites in a network · XHTML-based, W3C-compliant design. XHTML allows for using modules with special demands to the design (ex. Math-modules with MathML) Requirements: · Webserver · PHP with MySQL(i) support · MySQL 4.0 or later What's New in This Release: · The users last login (and total on-line time) is now displayed in profile · Rewritten database drivers · Basic topic moderation options (open/close and sticky) · User CP with theme and language selection · if/else/foreach system in templates · Complete theme support · Compiled templates · Rewritten cache system · A rewritten/modified design · Custom/special folders (Drafts/Sent items, moving messages between folders, etc) · Hiding and logging PHP and MySQL errors via a custom error handler, to allow for more user-friendly error management · Login page now redirects user to the page he/she came from · Pages available only to logged in users (user cp, mostly) now redirects the user to the login form · Member list: Clickable columns to sort the list has been added · Logged-in user information is now stored in Sessions instead of a query to the database · Rewritten sessions/user handling · Number of invalid login attempts is now limited · Custom BBCode · Passwords are now seeded · A switch has been added to the Admin CP to disable the version number in the footer
