Nabble1 is the old system from Nabble, which runs in
http://old.nabble.com.
Nabble2 is the new system, which has a distributed architecture with several servers (like
www,
n2,
n3 and
n4).
New Nabble2 features are described in this page:
http://n2.nabble.com/Nabble-Latest-Features-f1559156.htmlNabble2 is faster and has less clutter. The main features are:
- Better embedding;
- built-in email subscriptions (you can post and reply by email);
- Several interface options (forum, blog, news, gallery, etc.);
- Privilege control on who can view and post messages (i.e., private forums)
- Shared user accounts, as explained
here.
- Online/Offline indicator (per forum);
- Stars to add/remove your favorite forums and posts;
- Pin/Unpin topics (aka sticky topics);
- Better user experience;
- Spam control.
New features for Nabble2 are under development, such as:
- Templates: will let you build the UI as you want and even create your own node-oriented system;
- Custom sub-domains: you will be able to create a forum URL like myforum.nabble.com;
- Social Networking;
- Content management;
- Modules.
You will probably have to wait a few months until you see these upcoming features in the new system.
If you plan to migrate your forum from Nabble1 to Nabble2, you must know that: - Ratings have been removed since they are commonly misused and affects user ego;
- If you don't have an account in the new system, you will have to register again (accounts from the new system won't work on Nabble2)
