| I tried accessing the forums this morning but I got an error message on my screen referring to some SQL Server problems. Am I correct in assuming that the forums are maintained by SQL Server? If that is the case, how do you actually implement it?This is something I have been thinking about for a while but I am not sure where to start. The web space and domain names are ready but will I need a special account from my host in order to implement a similar forum?Your advice would be appreciated.Good Luck! |

| SQL Team forums are based on the Snitz forum code (http://forum.snitz.com/) with a few modifications. The database used is SQL Server, and Snitz supports others as well. If your web host supports ASP and whatever database you choose to use with Snitz, then you are all ready to go (once you run the Snitz setup page).There are also other forum software packages available for download, one of them is the ASP.Net forum code (http://www.asp.net/) that uses ASP.Net instead of ASP. You may want to check out various types and review them before you decide which one to use. Snitz is actually pretty good but it doesn't appear to scale well when a site grows, like SQL Team has. Also, there may be other forum packages out there that are more secure than Snitz, unfortunately Snitz tends to get hacked a lot and can be difficult to secure. |
