Dear Mr.Robert,

Thank you for your help in advance.

I have a suggestion regarding forum plugin.

The most popular community, you know, is reddit.com

Comparing to this forum templates, reddit isΒ author-centric.

The author's content is main and it consists of replies with small box like blog posts.

This forum template is popular in community like slickdeals, reddit, hotukdeals etc.

However, for WPforo, each replies has same room with topic author.

Could you offer different templates for better community like reddit or popular communities?

+ this kind of forum's also great.

wpForo is a classic forum, also it's a Q&A forum. But it's not reddit. reddit is not a classic community, it's a specific type of community. So a specific type can be better in a specific cases. reddit is not better then classic forum style. It's only better for the specific type of communities. 99% forums are designed like wpForo not like reddit.

As you know at the moment wpForo Classic Theme has three layouts (Extended, Simplified and QA). We'll consider to add a new layout like reddit in future versions.

It would be great if WPforo and WPdiscuz are collaborated together.

Topic=(Post writing frontend + WPdiscuz reply) and then put together like WPforo forum style. πŸ™‚

I'm looking forward to it πŸ˜€
