This is an alternative forum that you can install into standard Moodle.
It does not replace the standard forum, and operates alongside it. You can copy forums from the standard forum into ForumNG format if you like (...and if it works; this hasn't been tested lately).
Please note: This plugin is no longer supported in Moodle Tracker. All support requests should be via the GitHub repository issue tracker (https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-mod_forumng).

We have both Forum and ForumNG, and I am wondering what the main differences are? We are running Moodle 2.6.4
Also is it possible to transfer or restore Forum discussions into ForumNG to allow them to be downloaded in their entirity? disciusiions which are
Would it be possible to give us an update on the progress with updating ForumNG to 2.7 / 2.8 please?
Many thanks.
It is likely that we will have an official release of 2.8 version in June, with pre-release code available in GitHub late Feb.
If there are any issues on 2.8 that can be safely, and easily, fixed on 2.7 then we would consider doing this and updating GitHub master also.
Regarding compatibility with 2.8 I'm happy to test it as soon as I have access to my 2.8 dev installation.

Are you planning to wear this sophisticated plugin for versions 2.9 and 3.0 of Moodle?
Thank you in advance.

Moodle 3.0 support will not be available until the new year (github), probably in Feb/March (though there are some contrib fixes appearing already that I will add now if they are OK for 2.9 also).
are posts also sent to emails...?
Cheers.
I found this documentation on moodle : https://docs.moodle.org/36/en/ForumNG
I think it could be nice to put it in the "Useful Links" part of this page.
Cheers
