Community still have nothing to test, but THANK YOU GUYS!!! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!! Cause the idea is REEEEEAAAAAAALY GREAT. One my friend and i tryed to start the project like this, but becouse of my lack of perl knowledge and his lack of time, the project is actually dead now...  So i'm VERY exited 'bout this time. If this is going to rezult in any usable piece of code, that will be JUST GREAT!!! Thank you guys! (One more time  )

Any update would be a good thing right now. I'm sure quite a few of us are waiting for some word on the progress and maybe a projected date for a beta release.

This is so fascinating watching ideas become reality.
I am like everyone else--waiting anxiously to how it all turns out.
Thanks in advance for all the hard work/effort put forth.

Whoa, when I replied to this forum, I received this error message (in the area where you can see others' posts) ... and a pop-up window that said something like a "stack" error ...

Okay -- it happened again when I replied w/the error, and this time I wrote down the message of the pop-up; it said: quote:
Stack overflow at line 971
What happens, too, is that the page freezes at the screen w/the verbiage--"Sit tight ... taking you back ..."

Any news yet guys? I know you're hard at work, but are getting excited about it. If anyone is interested, at this point, in another example of a portal that integrates a message forum, you can check this one out. Truckers Road II

Can we consider this project to be put on an indefinite hiatus? Anything? I know you guys are busy, but any update would be nice.

I agree, an update would be nice, even if it's just to tell us the project is on hold. I guess it's safe to assume this is a dead project as we've not heard anything about it now in quite some time.

Has anyone found a portal that will work with UBB and DOESN'T require PHP? I've been all over the web and havn't been able to find such a thing. I found one nice setup, but it won't integrate with UBB and doesn't even allow for private forums, so it's pretty much useless. However, the interface IS what I've been looking for.

I'll keep my eyes open for one. It's unfortunate that this one had to die...

I agree. I had really high hopes for this. I had one going that was, like I said, pretty cool, but I just couldn't integrate the UBB into it the way I wanted to. It had classifieds, auto-news, articles you could write in, links, etc. Setup in less than 5 minutes too. Right now I'm using a script from ODP++ to run my web page's entry page and link to the UBB off that so I have a sort of portal type going. Truckers Road

Personally, I've given up on it. I'm looking at a different server to host my forums and may switch to UBBthreads or some other PHP based software as it appears there is no portal forthcoming that we can use if our host doesn't support PHP. I've now moved everything over to a different server and am using PostNuke. Very nice program.

instead of complaining, etc. about the progress of the portal why not start working on your own portal designs? with so much pre-built stuff on the web there's no reason why _anyone_ can't build a UBB Portal of their own.

All most of us wanted was just some assurance it was still being developed. I'm very patient, but like updates. Not all of us are programmers and must rely on others. Plus, all the portals I looked at were very limited and would not integrate with UBB or they used PHP to run and not all ISP's support PHP, but most support Perl and cgi, which is the dilema I was in. However, I've since switched to a different host which does support PHP and as mentioned, am now using Postnuke, which is working out very well. Truckers Road

I don't think any of us were really complaining. We were gracious and appreciative when inquiring about the project's status, and merely showing disappointment when the project's volunteers (who post on these boards several times a day every day ) hadn't responded in weeks to repeated requests for an update.
I realize that most everyone has busy schedules and any time devoted to working on the portal is coming out of their own spare time. No one is getting paid for developing this, so it's understandable why this is a low priority for them.
BTW, #1 Stunna, I have scoured the web for "pre-built stuff" that would be tightly integrated with the UBB AND run without using PHP, but I haven't found anything. That's why I'm so anxious for a beta of the UBB Portal.

didn't mean to offend anyone. the point i was trying to make is that it isn't that hard to put together a portal of your own w/ the wide availability of pre-built scripts on the web. true most of those scripts will require PHP, but it is possible. i'm sure that if everyone that is *patiently* waiting here would band together and devise a solution it could be achieved in no time. someone (i think mi_tucker) mentioned that they had a semi-functional portal running within 5 minutes.

Yes, I did have a portal running in about 5 minutes, but it was done in ASP. It was not very configurable and used it's own message forums, which were very crude. It also was not that easy to configure to your own tastes. PostNuke is very superior to the non-php ones I found and I tossed them out almost as soon as I looked at them.
I now run PostNuke as I have changed servers to one that allows PHP. However, I would be very willing to test whatever the guys here come up with for those non-php providers.
I just wish they would give us an update, say weekly, even if only to say they are still working on it. This is NOT a project they are going to be able to write in a couple of hours, at least not to have one that works the way I'm sure everyone would like it to work.

Thanks Allen, I for one appreciate the update. While I've switched servers to run PostNuke, I'd still like to have something that would integrate the ubb right into it without a lot of hacking, etc.

AllenAyres, tank you anyway! We were waiting for ANY information. Now we know that there is still something to wait for and even not knowing the date doesn't upste us.
We know that the work is going on, so we CAN wait!
ThankS!

I agree that Postnuke is great and that this software can speed up the process of portal development. The new modules written for this software can implement cgi's right into the main templates (themes), so the whole ubb can intergrate fast in it.
But it's an option, not the solution because there are many others.

If you ask me(which noone did), I would say that this project could go on forever. As many updates and bug fixes and new releases that infopop come out with, it would be damn hard to keep up with. So that is just my 2 pennies.

The obligatory bump. Now that 6.3 is right around the corner with it's templates and such, I hope that work on the UBBPortal will continue as planned. Thanks, guys.

I'm using PostNuke now. It's hopeless trying to put in PHP SSI calls in it though. *Needs portal*

The developer for this project is...well...not around... so.. untill a developer can begin work on the portal, its a dead issue IMO.

I obviously don't have the experience needed to do it but I sure as hell have the desire. If you look at the Post(PHP)Nuke movement you'll see what can happen when a group of people cooperate on a project. There is no valid reason why there can't be a UBB Portal project like that if the right people are approached and join in the effort.
I guess there would have to be a "project central" and we would have to recruit the people to do it.
Edit: I would be happy to open a forum at Netwerkin for this project if there is enough interest.
