New update informations + Top-featured forum reminder

Dear users,

Forumotion has the pleasure to announce you that all beta-tests for our new update are finished.

The update is now imminent! It has been thought to increase your forums traffic, by using innovating technologies.
The aim is to bring you the max of visitors!

We are proud to reveal some minors functionalities that will be added :

A new category in your admin panel called "Forum promotion" where you will be able to invite your friends from webmails, social networks or even a direct invit from a form.
You can now choose your homepage : forum index, portal, or a HTML page
Auto-subscribe to a group : a member will now be able to join automatically a group, regarding the post limit fixed by the admin.
Topic description display : the possibility to add a description for a topic
Possibility to add directly your own Google Analytics code in the admin panel, without going through the templates.
...etc.

For more details and the major functionalities, check out your forum very soon, when the update is officially launched Wink

Best,
Typlo

-----------------
As I've been sicked for more than a week now, I didn't have time to treat the top-featured forums last week, so here's the announcement again for people interested Smile

We are also starting a new weekly operation : Feature your forum on the support forum.

Your forum will be feature in 2 different ways :
- A 88x31 button or link in our "Partners" widget.
- A 728x90 banner, link and forum description in our weekly announcement (that will be displayed also on our main site, and in all admin panels).

Your forum will therefore have full visibility during one week !

Just contact me by PM so I can explain you all modalities

Best,
Forumotion Team

I've noticed the instability of the servers lately. Many times, this past week especially, the "maintenance" sign has been up at my forum and two of my friends' forumotion sites. It normally doesn't last long, but it's been happening on a regular basis.
I am thinking the server kinks will be worked out as things progress with the new updates, hopefully?

Btw, love the new portal/html page/index option as the front page. That's a neat addition!
Thank you for all you're trying to do to help make forumotion even better. salut
