RE: We are planning to migrate platform to Xenforo
I think Vannilla is also a good option bcoz of its features...
Intuitive and easy to
use
A super enjoyable user experience
No matter your objective,
your success depends on a
great user experience. Vanilla
is built like no other forum
platform, and every design
choice has a philosophical
reason to support it. Vanilla is
a re-imagining of how
community engagement
should be done, and users
love it.
Discussion types
In addition to standard
discussions, Vanilla allows
users to post questions and
polls. Like most of Vanilla's
features, these discussion
types can be turned on or off
in the Admin Dashboard.
Rich content
Users format posts with html,
markdown or bbcode.
Images are automatically
resized and YouTube and
Vimeo videos are
automatically embedded.
Tweets, Vines and Pins are
also automatically recognized
when pasted into a
comment.
Mentions
User can mention each other
in discussions by writing an
"@" before a username.
Mentioned users are notified
so they can quickly jump into
the discussion.
Advanced Editor
Our Advanced Editor
recognizes HTML, BBCode and
Markdown. Images, videos
and other rich content are
easily embedded, files can be
uploaded and code blocks
can be prettified. If WYSIWYG
is what you need, Vanilla has
that too.
Best of
The Best of page helps users
find your community's best
content by browsing a fun,
infinite-scrolling page.
Content shows up on this
page if it receives positive
reactions or if promoted by a
moderator.
Notifications
We have an unequaled
notification system that
keeps users abreast of
anything that they care about
happening in the community.
Even if they haven't left the
community, we have in-page
notifications to keep them
informed about what matters
to them.
Powerful user profiles
Every member gets a profile
that they can customize with
their personal information. It
serves as a place where they
can catch up on their
discussions, comments,
reputation, reactions,
badges, abilities, and much
more.
Auto-save
Vanilla auto-saves your
content as you are entering it
so that you can close the
window on purpose or by
accident, and your hard work
will not be lost.
Avatars
Vanilla hosts a free service
called Vanillicon.com that
generates cool looking icons
for users who have not
uploaded profile pictures.
Vanillicon's help a dreary,
image-less community come
to life! Vanilla also integrates
with Gravatar.
Real-time previews & edits
Users can preview their
comments in real time right
in the page, and they can edit
their existing comments right
in the page as well.
Powerful search
Autocomplete helps users
find what they are looking for
quickly. Search results include
images and videos added to
posts. Relevance is based on
keywords, word order and
post quality.
Smart history
Vanilla remembers
everything you've seen,
always keeping you up to
date with which discussions
have new content. Forget
about remembering which
page you were on, Vanilla
puts you right where you
stopped reading the last time
you were in a discussion.
Private messaging
Users can have private one-
on-one discussions, or they
can bring multiple people into
the conversation.
Advanced Editor
Our Advanced Editor
recognizes HTML, BBCode and
Markdown. Images, videos
and other rich content are
easily embedded, files can be
attached and code blocks can
be prettified. If WYSIWYG is
what you need, Vanilla has
that too.
Groups
Suited for larger
communities, this feature lets
members form smaller
groups where they can hold
discussions and schedule
events. Groups can be public
or private and can be
managed by moderators or
by the members themselves.

RE: We are planning to migrate platform to Xenforo
@Samand bro, They are very basic and having lesser features than mybb or xenforo. You can check their official forums for example ( Recent Discussions - Vanilla Forums ).
@Sadiq bro, there is a likes system and a trophy system built in. Trophy is given autometically based on post count, and is available upto 500 posts, so i don't see it useful. We receive a notification if someone likes our posts along with the post link as in some social networking sites.
I read, there is a major update of xenforo coming this year, v2.0 which will be even more enhance the usuability and functions. So we may expect something new with that. It is in active development from last two years so will be out soon.

RE: We are planning to migrate platform to Xenforo
Mentions, Advanced editor, Notifications, User profiles - all these i have shown in the pictures on #81 from xenforo, compare it with vanilla and have also given link to their official forums. Is it looking that good bro?
