Hi everyone,

I have started moving things forward on this now. I was out of the country all last week so i did not get any time to work on DF ... hence the stop in activity.

I have now removed all the old demo links and the older versions from my site and have tested a fresh install on my host which i am now using as home page and forums in one.

You can see the new version over at www.doveforums.com

i expect to have to script live over the coming week, i have also created a collection of extras in the form of plugins ready to launch on the site.

Please go to the site, head over for the forums and start testing and submit feedback here. If you discover any faults then drop a line here also being as descriptive as possible so i can get right on it and cure before the major release.

Hope you like the new version !

Chris

I will be putting up more details in the coming days with full details on the achievement system. Including demonstration on how to customize the achievements, including changing the achievement titles, picture, description and points rewarded. This will allo you to make them tottaly custom to your site ... or if you do not want to use this you can turn it off via the admin panel.

Stay Tuned !
