Active Forums 4.3 for DotNetNuke
The Award Winning, Dependable and Fully Supported Forum Module for DotNetNuke
Active Forums Is Not Just Another Forum

There are plenty of forum options for DotNetNuke, but nothing comes close to the features, scalability and total community solution that Active Forums can provide. Active Forums is more than just another forum module, it is a mature, stable and very popular community collaboration solution. Don't give your users the same boring forum experience. Use Active Forums and give them more!

Exciting New Features for Active Forums 4.3

Goodbye Ugly Links!

Say goodbye to long and ugly URLs that are difficult for users to use and share. Active Forums 4.3 includes a new URL Manager that generates URLs in a human friendly fashion. Best of all, you get to control the path for each forum and forum group. You be the judge. Do you want your users to see a Url like this:

OR do you want them to see a Url like this:

Which Version Should You Use?

Now you just need to decide which version of Active Forums is right for you.

Do you need all the features or just some of the basics?
(Even with basics you are getting more than other forum modules offer)
Do you need access to dedicated support or will community based support work fine for you?
(Don't worry, our support staff answers forum questions too, but help desk is faster)
Do you want access to all updates and new releases?
(If you want to pay for every new release, that's ok with us! But if you want to save some money, that's ok too.)
Take a look at the chart below for other differences between versions.

You Won't Be Disappointed! We Guarantee it!

We stand behind our products. Within the first 30-days, if for some crazy reason you decide Active Forums isn't right for you and you've given us a chance to address your concerns, just let us know and we will give you a refund.
