The Bear and Badger

The GitHub repo for those of distinguished taste

This is the main source for the Bear and Badger forum, currently found (surprisingly enough) at http://thebearandbadger.co.uk

It is built using the quite lovely and open source Vanilla Forums: http://vanillaforums.org/

Feel free to browse, pull-apart, contribute or clone. If you do decide to use this as the base for a new forum, it would be appreciated if you didn't use any of the included branding; but other than that, feel free to help yourself.

The particularly 'unique' or interesting bits that belong to me are:

  • The 'bears' theme
  • SimpleSpoilers plugin
  • SimpleVideo plugin
  • SimpleImages plugin
  • SCEditor Plugin
  • GamingNetworks plugin

This will by and large be the definitive source, so as I roll out improvements this repo will be updated accordingly.

If you wish to run this yourself, you will need a webserver, PHP and MySQL. Apache is preferred due to the use of .htaccess files for pretty URLs, but it's up to you.

You'll need to add DB config settings into the /conf/config file. A seed SQL file can be found in /DB/db_seed.sql - I would recommend installing Vanilla normally and then importing this in order to create any custom tables.
