I am looking for a forum solution for a Django site. I looked over the options in the Django wiki and I check about integrating non-Django solutions.

As much as I do not feel comfortable with implementing an external PHP forum, I feel even less comfortable with going with a Django solution which is not mature enough.

Do you have any recommendations on this situation? Do you have experience with mature Django-based forum solutions?

Edit: Just for closure, I decided to go with a Django solution after all since I wanted full integration with my site, and other solutions (PHP for example) could not guarantee that.

Being as it is, I am very disappointed with the existing Django forums. They are either:

  • Very basic, not more than I could do in 1 work day
  • A pain to integrate into my site (templates badly designed)

I regretfully conclude that as of now, there is no mature Django forum application.

I think the most used Django forum is:

However here you can find a comparison of Django forum applications:
