Hi Ranchers,
Coderanch currently runs on JForum, so I believe it's the best place to post queries on it
We are currently building a web application and like to have the forum feature in our application.
I have a few questions regarding JForum -
1. Can we build our custom API's in
JSP and use JForum functionality only as a backend service? Say if you think this current Ranch page developed in JSP and when I click reply it call's JForum's reply (service) method. Could I use only the logic / backend service of the JForum as a whole and not the UI?
2. If #1 is possible is there a
Java Doc API for services listed by JForum (I din't see anything on their website)
3. If #1 is not possible what steps should I do next to modify the JForum UI to a custom need. I read from other Ranch threads that FreeMarker is used as JForum's UI.
I was able to successfully install JForum on
Tomcat & MySql as backend.
Also post any other advise / study guide on JForum.
Thanks much!
John Jai
