WordPress Forums Problems

Post by mica.cooper »

Guys at Insurance Journal,

Thank you for switching back to this forum software. The WordPress look and feel is ABSOLUTELY horrendous. AND, it obviously does not work. Please give up on the WordPress for the website as well as it looks totally unprofessional and is not nearly as good as the old site.

PLEASE, do not use WordPress!!!

@mica, You're welcome!

Thanks for the feedback. We added some cool features to forums (rate posts, browse by US state), but the whole system wasn't quite ready for primetime. We'll keep in touch about future changes and get your feedback.

I really love the new sleek design compared to other forum sites. It looks really clean and professional. And the banner name text font seems like a brand name of an authority site or organization like the BBC news.

I don't see any problem with the current forum's layout. I prefer it simple. I really like the use of phpBB. There's no clutter or anything. Keep up the good work guys!

I agree, PHPbb is also a good forum platform. You can also use "vbulletin" since it has a lot of features and easy to use and manage as well.

Word press just needs to be setup properly with the proper plugins for the purpose of the site.

Yeah, I agree the current seems to work fine. Navigation is easier and faster. I can easily find the items I'm looking for as the layout is well organized
