uForum basics

uForum basics is a fork of the uForum code used to run on Our Umbraco, but has been refactored to fit a more generic scenario.

uForum basics uses ASP.NET membership, and should be able to support and membership provider that your site uses. You just need to implement a small interface (uForum.Businesslogic.Services.IMemberIdConverter) in order to convert the membership providers member ID (which is an Object) to and from a string. If you are using Umbracos own membership provider, then it runs out of the box.

Role based security is used to determine who are allowed to post/admin on a per forum basis. So you could have a forum that only a certain member group are allowed to post in.

The package requires Umbraco 4.5.x running on MS SQL server. It works with both the new and legacy xml schema.
