    Boonex is writen by several people using different technologies. Its main base (Dolphin) is writen in pure php with its own template engine and forum (Orca) uses xlst. That has large negative impact to integration of forum in site and site in forum. When coding, please use single technology and template system.

    Whats even worser, different parts of dolphins code itself is writen by completely different people, and very in the hurry. So everyone has its own imagination how to interact with different parts of the code. It is very tricky to modify code that way to suit site needs.

    I have use it few times in the last few years, actually it isn't bad. A bit heavy and every extra cost money. Personally I would not recommend it for serious project.

    Have you corrected the email delivery issue? That is when we send emails from the site it gets delivered to the users spam box. Have you corrected this?

    This is nothing to do with the script. It is about your server SMTP.

    I suppose you ask me about the link in my signature. This project isn't based on Boonex, it is modified Jomsocial amd Joomla, based project.

    Forget Boonex, many people gave bad reviews about them because of its unstable scripts and high custom work charges.

    There are only just a few good social networking scripts around.
    Actually 3 well known and solid, they exist for many years already and have good support too and private forums.

    phpFox - http://www.phpfox.com (the best of the 3)

    Social Engine - http://www.socialengine.net

    Jomsocial - http://www.jomsocial.com (this is a Joomla component, Joomla itself is free)

    You can buy additional themes as soon as you purchased a license then you are able to register on the big forum.
    You can also hire a custom designer from freelancewebsites.
    All up to you.
