Hans...you must not be using version 7 because it does have the admin feature.   And, deleting aline of code isn't that hard versus having it as a mod and having to edit the db.  See my point?

Massman, the problem with having 2 boards is that the coding wil be very different, so you thought getting support was rough now!  

With that said, if there were 2 borgs I would love the idea!  Especially since I'm one of those who can't put in many mods as I can't edit the database.  But since there's only 1 of him (though I'm sure his local pub is thankful for that)  it's taking long enough just getting 1 board out let alone having 2.

Besides, there's much better things he could do, like write a portal for wwg, update the current applications, and hopefully write a Link Directory app!

I think this is very important and would really help Web Wiz Forums! I am sure that many agree...This would make Web Wiz Forums the fisrt forum to give its users the ability to EASILY customize the forum. (Instead of installing single files).

I believe that it is worth the trouble.

A few boards out there offer what's called an easymod program where once it's in place all you would do is to take a mod you like that needs the db to be edited and it will do the editing for you.  You would need to make all the mods easymod compatable but THAT is worth integrating IMO and would be easier to write and code than creating 2 wwf.

Borg has said, it takes thousands and thousands of hours to write the board.  Therefore, logically, we would still be in version 3.5 (1/2 of v7).  Do you have any idea what v3 looked like  (no offense borg!)  but we would all have moved onto a different board!

It would be too difficult for 1 person to maintain 2 programs constantly and only to please some people. 

I bet, with borg's consent, the mod group people could get together and create a "wwg lite".  Or perhaps once a version is completely finished he could have the group strip out the extra code for him and call it 'wwg lite'.  Then you might have a case, but for borg, who runs this site, web wiz hosts, and maintaing a social life is enough I'm sure.

But what the hell do I know?

like the first post suggested, why not stick with one forum and have the options switchable as ON and OFF. that way you can customise it to your needs and have it as small or as large as you need, Having multiple forum types just increases the workload on the poor bloke who spends his time writing it!!
