Looking for someone to create/modify software for this forum [5500+ BTC]

[ironcross360]

Yes they could

My bid is 2000BTC. The first payment would be 25% and again this is only after I have provided a working product.

 

At this point they could buy an IPB license, with more features than you could ever program, for 5btc.  And then spend maybe 100btc more to customize it.  They just don't want to do anything.

I was wondering when someone will offer this one.
A huge +1 from me, Jeff Atwood is great and while I haven't tested Discourse myself I'm sure it rocks.
I wonder if it can work with a site in this scale ... worth getting in touch with them and finding out.

Just tried their demo and it looks really awesome. Would love to see the bitcointalk community on a discourse forum.

Their are looking for beta communities, they will worry about everything for 2 years... This board might be a perfect candidate...

While bitcoin may be in beta, this community is not.   Too much real world business goes through here to be any kind of a testing ground for new forum software.

Good point, but its anyway hard to do worse than a 10 years old script

And business people hate us for that. Most of them stay as far away from here as they can and only post when they have to. I think that it'd be an improvement to switch to Discourse, especially if we're asked. Hell, we have enough money that we could hire their whole freaking team full-time for at least a few months.

That would probably be of great benefit to both projects.

Now you just need to convince theymos to spend it on something which doesn't have the features he wants and we'll be all set

[Sothh]

How about I just make one, and if you like it, I sell it too you?

Seems about the easiest way to do this.

Wow, I'm really digging this one.  I didn't like it at first because there were no categories (not like the ones we have here), but it's actually a lot more streamlined and simplified.

Not to mention, I spend most of my time here staring at the bottom of the site to see who's posting what anyway

Big +1 for this one!

You could try mybb, its opensource, themeable, customizeable, has alot of the features your looking for.

Greetings!

I have a great Idea!

Auction!

Let imagine one great platform with couple of webmasters.
They prepare their websites for a some period, let's say 3-6 month to get everyone together.

Each sites linked to subdomains of bitcointalk.org.

webmaster1.bitcointalk.org
webmaster2.bitcointalk.org
webmaster3.bitcointalk.org
...
webmasterN.bitcointalk.org


Some day would denote as a start of voting.

Each member of forum may give their voice, with little of payment in BTC.

Let's say, for a 1 month we get great amount of money for each webmaster, for their job, and one of them winner, we migrate to new forum!

Plus, each work carefully checking by administration of bitcointalk.org and each member of forum because it would opensource!

It would be great to see hundreds of opensource forum engines (:

There are nothing to do else, cause there exist GitHub for hosting, administration of bitcointalk.org can place chart of candidates on the first page.

After 1 month of voting should appear group of real leaders.  

We can move forward, and make the second month of voting for this group!

I don't think we even need an auction there is over 90k up for grabs this job could and should have been completed ages ago, if I knew more than a basic bit of php and simple html css I would give it a shot no question, there are about a trillion job seeking sites available and people more than happy to do this task for a fraction of the price...

In all honesty about a quarter of the money should be put into redesigning the forum and the rest into advertising to help get the word out about bitcoin..

A mobile version/app would be appreciated. VBulletin is my favorite forum software.

If the forum switches to mybb, one theme takes care of mobile http://www.mybbgm.com/index.php

Offer still stands to create your software from a modified vbulletin.

[Herodes]

The forum's software has proven to be insufficient for our needs. In particular, the general architecture of the code is both insecure and difficult to modify, and the moderation facilities are limited. Therefore, the forum is accepting bids for the job of delivering software that meets the requirements listed below.

It's been 5 months - why is nobody assigned to the task ?
