vBHome and vBHome (lite)
 

Is there a "vBHome", or is vBHome (Lite) the same thing?

What's the significance of the "Lite" in the name? I understand that the hack has gone through different stages, but to me the "Lite" implies that something's been left out...

Arkham, please go to this page and enter your username, to show you are licensed. (you will need to use your customer number and password to access that page)

Thank you.

Not again... ;)

FireFly knows about me. I'm still a pre-owner. I'm waiting for vB3. That's why this is in Pre-Sales.

Good to see you're quick, though. ;)

Lite is free, the other isn't (I think).

Sorry :) - I've seen you around and assumed you are already a licensed owner. Why wait for vB3? Same price if you get a license now, and you can upgrade for free when vB3 comes out.

Sigh, I know. Believe me. :rolleyes:

For various reasons, I hadn't the money or time over the past year (I was Dot-Bombed last year...) and was planning on getting v3 this past spring. Dev. on my site wasn't far enough to use it, and I wasn't looking forward to spending the time to acquaint myself with vB twice (one with v2, and then for v3). Now my frustration is at an all-time high, so I'll probably get it by the end of November. F'n Finally.

Besides, I wanted to max out the usefullness of the 1 yr renewal date. There's no use letting it sit unused for 6 months...

Heh, 2 years of daily vB forum reading and I almost feel like an owner.

Anyway, your vigilance is appreciated. :)

(The good news is that now I may actually get an additional license for a client's site. )

Hmm... Would that be Virtuanews? I couldn't find any reference to just "vBHome" on here.

I'm thinking of using that for my site during development, until either the vB CMS or I find a custom solution.

I can't PM, so I couldn't ask Teck directly. :)


Thanks for the help, guys.

VirtuaNews is done by TECK and someone else and is his commercial project. I'm not sure if I read in his vBhome (Lite) thread that when his site is done he will release vBhome Full (Paid?) Version too.

Oh... I read that Teck just did some gfx for virtuanews. It doesn't sound like an option really, since it's not really fully integrated, just shares the login. (As an add-on too.)

I think vBHome will be it. I'm trying to wade through that thread to find more example sites, but it's time-consuming to pick them out.

Hey, if anyone can show me some interesting examples of what could be done, I'd love to see 'em. I have a feeling that my site design won't easily transfer over to vB without a (very) customizable, full-featured CMS, but vBHome looks to be the best start.


Cheers.
