The message board software, Simple Machines Forum (
www.simplemachines.com), has a number of modifications that can be installed and customized for Campus Dakota. If you are interested in a feature and want to know if a mod exists, please check out the Modifications Directory at
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/. The current version of SMF we're running can be found at the bottom of your screen (1.1.10 or greater). We'll be happy to take a look and see if there is enough interest to install the features you request.
The software (CMS, or content management system) used for the rest of the Campus Dakota website is Drupal (
http://drupal.org). Drupal is fantastically customizable and an incredible number of features can be added. Feature additions are called "modules" and can be found at
http://drupal.org/project/modules. We are currently running Drupal 6 (not 5 or 7). Again, let us know what you think we should add to make Campus Dakota even better!
