Title: How many forums are using Elkarte?
Post by: kucing on September 08, 2017, 10:34:07 am
Hi, I'm just curious. Did Elkarte collect any stats on how many installations are currently active?

I want to know because i'm hoping there is a possible market for paid addon/themes for elkarte. :) and i want to support that.

There is  a showcase board: http://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?board=22.0
There is also forumrankings.net (https://www.forumrankings.net/software/elkarte) by @vbgamer45‍ but many forums are missing there

As far as I know the biggest forum powered by Elkarte is https://hydrogenaud.io/

Thanks @radu81 ! Forgot that there is a board for showcasing. :D

But what I want to know is ElkArte collects statistics from new installation (maybe on the last step of the wizards).

SMF can collect statistics if you choose this option during install or upgrade. More info can be found here https://www.simplemachines.org/about/smf/stats.php

I don't remember seeing this option on Elkarte, but I might be wrong. Probably @emanuele‍ or @Spuds‍ can give us more information

We chose not to include that data collecting option in ElkArte.  Thats the one when you install SMF you have to choose if you want to allow it to collect information about your site.  So many people opt out of that that the collected data is meh.
