Community Made Easy

Users can upload their custom avatar based on the user groups settings. There is also an option to moderate newly uploaded avatars before they show up in the public.
Flat, Threaded, or both
Contentteller offers three different display modes for comments and postings.
The first and default display option is threaded. Threaded will display replies to the main topic as a main discussion while replies to postings will be displays as sub-discussions. This will reduce the numbers of quoted posting and duplicate content dramatically after postings will be displayed in the correct order.
Listing is a more traditional threaded display mode. Showing all postings as a listing where users can select and expand single postings within the thread.
Last but not least is the linear mode. Linear will sort all postings in a linear/flat order from bottom to top and will automatically quote the referring posting (if necessary) allowing a fluid transition between threaded and flat modes.
