Hello,

I would like to know if this still is in effect.

1. In simple terms, can I use the BBpress theme ?

2. Is it available for download like it is right now?

Thanks a lot guys. I really appreciate it.

What are you guys waiting for? Get cracking. (joking). How much do you guys think this would cost me? I know, it’s something you cant predict right now. I dont know any development/design, so i cant predict anything at all. Maybe 1000, 2000, 3000? More than 3000?

But seriously, why doesnt Matt introduce an open source social networking software?

Im not actually asking so i can get my hands on it. Its an analyst’s perspective.

Im also very interested in finding out why WordPress has been so successful, and why other blog softwares might not have been as succesful. I believe it has to do a lot with the “corporate image” of wordpress/automattic and the love they have for their community.

[MAJOR OFF TOPIC]

Hello Aditya,

I have emailed you using your @adityanaik.com email for a project. Does that email work?

Sorry.

Posting jobs from company websites (NOT job boards) is fine. Infact, you are doing them a favour.

Job postings are like advertisements.

Sorry i meant wordpress.org

[@talbina Member 17 years, 5 months ago]

Ok.

No offence to the wordpress.com people. But i just went on the wordpress.com support forum and searched for ‘CMS’ and almost everyone there has a lot of trouble making wordpress.com into a CMS.

All the reply posts about CMS on there have all been just ‘advice’, no real action to build on.

Can you please show me some websites that use WordPress, that are not blogs?

Something with some functionality in them.

Thanks,

Talbina

Hello ck,

thanks for the help.

I keep on thinking that wordpress is a blog software, but i guess its just like any other CMS.

Furthermore, what im trying to do now is reduce cost. That means, try to use the software that has the most features that i need already.

BBpress already has categories (different job types) , posts (job posts) , users (companies) and avatars (for logos).

Just way too confused for a person like me who doesnt know anything.
