Bubbles v2.0
Bubbles v2.0

At last, after a long time Elxis has a forum extension again. The new component is named Bubbles. You can install it in your Elxis powered site and have an integrated forum solution. Although Bubbles is brand new, it released as version 2.0, and not 1.0 as you may expect. This is because Bubbles 1.x was an old Elxis 2009.x series component. Bubbles 2.x is a brand new, modern application written from scratch especially for the Elxis 5.x platform. You can use it as a forum, as a FAQ tool, to provide support, as a communication gateway between your site members and visitors and for any other purpose you may find it useful.
