Vanilla is open source forum software that is used to power discussions on hundreds of thousands of sites across the web.
At VanillaForums.com, you can sign up and have a discussion forum created for you instantly. The discussion forum can be used for any purpose, but typically businesses / individuals / brands will use a discussion forum as a place where they can enable their customers / friends / fans to interact with each other.
You get a fully functioning discussion forum for free. There are currently optional upgrades that range in price from $3 to $50 per month, and allow you to add features and customizations to your forum like a custom domain name, more control over the appearance of your forum, etc.
Vanilla is a new kind of forum. We've taken away all of the features that we don't think are absolutely essential, and we've added a few new ones that we think are pretty neat. Just try it out, and we promise you'll like the changes!
We are constantly working on Vanilla to make it better, and we want to hear about anything you feel is lacking, so just email us at: supportatvanillaforumsdotcom
VanillaForums.com is our hosting service where you can sign up online and have a forum created for you. You can then enable premium feature upgrades to take your forum to the next level.
VanillaForums.org is our open-source site, where developers, fans, and users can download and use the open-source software for free, as well as upload and share their add-ons, and get involved by helping each other out on the community forums.
