In May or June I've been planning to begin working on a few GC projects again. This would probably be a good time to also see about that new forum software project that I have yet to get around to working on.
If anyone wants to take a look at the various new forum software that I'm considering for GC, links are below. The links are to their software community support forums.
Xenforo
Invision Community
I'm most interested in the above two options.
Others that I may also consider and will be looking more into are:
Discourse
NodeBB
Flarum
Whatever option we end up going with for GC, everything will be migrated over. We won't lose any threads, posts, accounts, etc. And whichever is used, GC would end up functioning and looking somewhat similar to what you see in their support forums which are linked above.
Please feel free to share your thoughts here regarding any of those forum software options. Or if there's a different community software system you know of and would like to suggest for use on GC, post those links as well and I will check them out.
Some of the forum software has licensing fees, all have web hosting expenses, and this will likely take a significant amount of work on my part with various testing, data migrations, server work, any necessary customizations, etc... if anyone would like to help chip in on the cost & help support these efforts, please do so on GreekChat's "Buy Me A Coffee" page at
