Configuring YetAnotherForum.NET for Sueetie

Download YetAnotherForum.NET 1.9.3 RC2 source from the YAF.NET Forums¶

Sueetie uses YetAnotherForum.NET, version 1.9.3. The YetAnotherForum.NET Development Team is lead by Jaben Cargman. The YAF.NET souce is available from the YetAnotherForum.NET support site.

Copy the YAF project source to the application subdirectory in your /project/source/ folder. No need to compile, as we'll want to copy over the Sueetie YAF DIFF files before doing so to simplify the process.

Fire up YetAnotherForum.NET in your web browser and walk through the auto-configuration¶

In Windows XP/Vista go to http://yourmachine/yoursite/forum/ or http://yoursite/forum/ on Windows Server. YAF is smart enough to know that we need to run the setup program in /forum/install. Walk through the YAF installation steps

The configuration password is set in the YAF root app.config file. The default is "password."

Configure mail.config to support email subscription and notifications¶
