Arabic Support????

[SAWolf76]

Let me say that from what I saw this is a grate board and its way better than UBB and I'm seriously consedring switiching to it...

But I have a few questions...

1. is this a seprate product from UBB and if it is I'm just worried that there would be some dispute in the future between the two boards and me as coustomer would get effected??

2. Can I transulate it into Arabic like UBB?? Do notice that other than having to change the wording I need to change the direction of the board from left-right to right-left.

3. when is the free version available so that I could test it with Arabic?

4. is the source code available??? and can I change it as I see fit like UBB???

Thank you and hope to get a responce soon...

This is a seperate product from a seperate company. We have no affiliation with UBB.


2. Can I transulate it into Arabic like UBB?? Do notice that other than having to change the wording I need to change the direction of the board from left-right to right-left.


Templates! The entire system (yes everything!) is run from templates, so all you need do is rewrite the templates. There is no need to rehack the code on every upgrade too.


3. when is the free version available so that I could test it with Arabic?


There is no free version yet, but there is one planned. However, there is an online demo of the control panel:

Yes.

Planned - probably in the summer.

You can set custom user statuses based on the number of posts. These statuses can include HTML, so theoretically you could have:

Thanks John!!!!!!! This is a grate board I did try the control panel and the templates and its grate!!! I'm now 99% closer to getting it... I just wish I knew about this before getting stuck with UBB..... However, I'm still a bit worried.. I do wish you would get the free version out soon so I could try it out.... Unless your willing to give me a free trial?? I only need it to make sure that there is support for Arabic if I get that as an OK I'm a 100% sure going to get this board.......

Keep the good work John and let me say Thanks for a grate product.... If it works ok with me I'll make sure to spread the word out to the Arabic communty.......
