Boards, sub-boards, topics and replies, the same on every plan
Anybody can post with just a name: no account, no sign-up, no email
Approve before publish, spam filter, pin, lock and move, all free
Runs on Studio, the classic editor and Harmony
A forum on your own site: boards, the sections inside them, the topics people start, and the replies. No watermark or badge on any plan, ever.
Anybody can post with just a name: no account, no confirmation email, nothing to join. Prefer signed-in members only? That is one switch, board by board, and a guest on such a board is offered your site’s own sign-in right where the reply box would be.
The whole moderation queue is free. Approve before publish, hold a new name’s first post, pin, lock, edit, move a topic to another board, delete. A spam filter runs on every plan and sends nothing to anybody.
Every topic gets a readable address made from its own title, so a shared link reads like the topic.Search reads titles, messages, names and replies. Four arrangements (board index, list, compact and cards) and every design control, with text that stays readable on a dark site.
It never sends an email to anybody, creates no pages and no members area, and every topic is an ordinary row in your own content manager. Export is free, always. A forum shows its newest 4,000 topics and a topic its newest 600 replies, on every plan.
