First off, I want to thank everyone who was involved in releasing Fusion 9. Fusion was the first CMS I used when I started learning php back in 2005. The software has some a long way and I am happy to continue supporting it.
I have a few questions and I hope that the Admins/Devs do not get mad at me lol..
Fusion 7 is pretty solid and established. With that being said, will it take months and years to get 50% of the themes and addons that currently work with 7?
I ask this because I am returning back to PHPFusion after my dislike in phpbb. I trust the community here at phpfusion and I want to come back home my family lol. Given this, I am undecided on what version to use and here's why.
PHPFUSION 9 lacks customizations and themes which basically is a barebones script.
- So I am not sure if I should wait until 9 is stable and has some features/themes to get my site live.
- It appears from the forums that many are having issues upgrading from 7 to 9 so If i start using 7 will I have issues upgrading to 9?
- The main site is currently using 7 with an awesome theme and custom add ons. This is what I need for my site to go live but I do not want to miss out on a better coded and modern version of the script.
I guess what I am trying to say is, is there a roadmap for the next update and will the Atom x2 or similar theme be provided?
I really want to start using PHPFusion again but If I go with 7 because it has most of the things I need, will I miss out on being able to upgrade my site to 9 and still be able to use current Atom Theme available, infusions, etc.
I'm lost looking for guidance because I need to get my site up and running as soon as possible.
Thanks everyone!
