New Download for Jumptree Open Source Forum in ASP.NET 2.0 / NHibernate

As I promised later last week, a new version of Jumptree Forum in ASP.NET 2.0 / Nhibernate is released.


Details about the core forum is talked about in my previous 1.0 release post here and again, the live version is available on our production site. We definitly eat our own dog food. :)

To review, two major features are added for your convenience.

• Code Highlighter From ActiproSoftware
  

Supported Languages include: BatchFile, C#, CSS, HTML, INIFile, Java, Jscript, Javascript, Lua, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, SQL, VB.NET, VBScript and XML.

To use it in the forum, all you have to do is enter in the BBCode like so

[code language=”HTML”]
  <p> test html highlighter </p>
[/code]

where the value of attribute “language=” can be any of the supported languages.

• Email Notification
  

We felt it it’s absolutely necessary to be notified whenever a new discussion or a reply is added to the discussion, such we ripped out the code available in Jumptree Project Management and applied to the forum.

To use it, you have two files to customize (*Note, in the readme, I named them "ForumEmailSMTP.config" and "ForumAppSettings.config", please ignore that, I'm just too lazy to change them at this point)

a) EmailSMTP.config

change "from" to your system email

change "host" to your smtp server (i use "gmail" by default)

 b) AppSettings.config

RequireCredential is used if your server requires username/password

                             if true, then please provide username/password

EnableSSL is used if your smtp server requires that.

NotifyUsers are the users you want to notify when a new discussion is posted or reply added. The users can be comma sepearated. 

The New V1.1 Download is available here. Again, if you intend to use as it is, please have the “Forum powered by Jumptree” on the bottom. 

Enjoy!
