Taiga Forum is more than just instant communication. It's a powerful, reliable, and easy-to-use way to support communities.
Click a feature to see a preview:
Humanform URLs.
Why put up with Web addresses like showtopic.php?p=284233 when you can have my_new_art_project.html? With Taiga's Humanform URLs, what you see is what you get. Even if you bookmark a post, then later that post gets deleted, your bookmark will still bring you to right place. And search engines will have no problem indexing your forum, either.
Active Userlist.
See who's online or in a topic with you using the Active Userlist on every page. It updates live, so there's never a need to reload, and can be hidden when not in use.
Smart Paging.
When topics reach a certain length, page numbers automatically start to hide, then eventually change to a dropdown. Users can even set these thresholds themselves.
For quick access, paging is always found at the bottom of the window, no matter where you've scrolled on the page.
GoTo Bar.
The most popular boards are always shown on the GoTo Bar at the top of the window. Here you'll also find links to your messages and the full list of users.
