I wrote a couple of weeks ago that I would be upgrading my personal site forum from Fireboard to Kunena. Well I did it and it was fairly painless save one issue. While I am very pleased with the overall changes made to this very useful and powerful FREE forum extension, it still has a long way to go.
For months now many thousands of loyal Joomla Fireboard forum users have been anxiously wondering/worrying about the fate of the most popular forum tool for Joomla. Now the wait is over. It seems that finally, a fork of the popular forum has been created and called Kunena or "To Speak."
