to create a look and feel like the rest of your site
cutomization allow to edit the real html template documents that generate each portion of the forum
and use special aGNeS tags to generate article lists or similar items in the locations you choose
articles can be archived and archives can be accessed and searched at any time
aGNeS separates tasks such as article posting or article viewing in order to allow
better layout and clean forums; aGNeS has six templates actually that can have any layout:
articles list, single article, posting a new article, replying to an article, article preview
and article search results
unlike bulky and unpleasant BBS systems, aGNeS is non-restrictive, that is there's no login,
no user authentication - it's basically an anonymous forum so users feel free to post and access
the threads by one simple click; still aGNeS can be for example moderated
(check power options for details)

to damage full threads of articles

thread view without confusing information or locations

an article depending on the article content (of course you can define your own faces sets)

with a RegExp engine and show customizable results

aGNeS is fast, does not consume a lot of resources for a large (thousands) number of boards,
fully remote and several years of operation have proven it very reliable

an article

aGNeS is not full of publicity - you're free to suppress all Vestris
banners from your aGNeS BBS
Each forum data and forum layout are two separated things, aGNeS does not generate fixed HTML pages
but dynamically merges layout at each run - you can change the forum layout at any time and even have two forums
with the same layout without keeping double template pages
aGNeS forums can be password protected with individual users having personal passwords
aGNeS is an all-in-one solution to push your company into the interactive
world of web based forums
aGNeS supports groups of forums for faster processing, aim definition and better
management
each "group" or forum community gets an administrative password that can be
used on all forums and throughout the web management system, an interface to create new
forums (can be password protected) and to manage each forum individually
each forum gets a private administrator's password to modify/delete/archive
articles and has a private online management section to delete a forum,
to change the administrator's password, name and email or to modify the
location of the template pages
aGNeS supports remote execution, that is template pages can be anywhere
on any other server than the one running aGNeS

with all known HTTP servers, such as Apache or IIS

Windows 95/98 and Sun Solaris
aGNeS needs little memory and a low amount of system resources
