May 2011 we went from DragonFly CMS (php) to DotNetNuke CMS (C#) to which we added the YetAnotherForum extension to.
Think of DotNetNuke as a box, and YetAnotherForum was put inside of it. Well, we don't use any of the DNN features and it causes some quirky things with YAF that frankly, I grew tired of. I wanted more control over the layout and design. To achieve that, I have removed YAF from the DNN box and we're throwing the DNN box to the curb.
Don't get me wrong, DNN is great, I like it a lot, it just doesn't fit PackersHome's needs.
Oh yeah, using YAF without DNN will improve the speed of the forums. ;-)
You might some weird things over the next couple days. Feel to post them here as you see them so I can build a checklist.
