Hi:

I'm at the moment looking into XenForo as a replacement for the ancient vBulletin Suite 4.x with modifications system I used to build all my portals for work, my church, fan sites, etc. I need to know what are the things I need to get the following Functionality with XenForo?

[Base Functions]
  • Forums
  • User Blogs
  • Image Gallery
  • CMS
  • Polls
[Extended Functionality]
  • Chat rooms
  • Question & Answer areas
  • user status wall (like facebook/twitter)
  • download area
  • links directory
  • user moods
  • admin can "act as" specified user for troubleshooting
  • username styles everywhere
  • tests/quizzes
  • custom login process
  • custom password reset process
  • user directory
  • and more...
For a lot of the extensions I used a lot of premium products from DragonByte Tech (No Idea if they're still around)

[Base Functions]
  • Forums
    • This comes default and is the main software in XenForo
  • User Blogs
  • Image Gallery
  • Polls
    • Comes built-in if you're speaking about per-content polling.
[Extended Functionality]
  • Chat rooms
  • Question & Answer areas
    • You can create different thread types and sections built-in
  • user status wall (like facebook/twitter)
    • Again, this would come default if you're speaking about personal profiles
  • download area
  • user moods
The rest you can easily find using keywords when searching!
-- XenForo is an incredible piece of software. It gives you tons of opportunity to create whatever you can imagine, if you know how to implement it or look :)

FateKid;

I just wanted to follow up and say that I have a XenForo lab on my laptop and all I can say is "wow" I'm impressed.... It's different enough to remind me it's not "home" but similar enough to where the change doesn't spook me too bad when I log in for testing... vBulletin better look out, XF has it coming for them

Definitely!
Once you get the hang of the workings of the admin panels and the general modification of the suite, you’ll be able to make whatever you’d like!
