Any discount for a School/Education Forum?

[kylewalkerup]

I wanted to know if there is any discount for an educational institute? Currently my school is having a forum at SMF amps.edu.pk/forum , I am the administrator at the forum but many students told me that they don't like the look of the forum and few of them suggested me a forum which was using XenForo. That is why I came here. Though I have my personal website as well where I am using SMF and that is a big forum.

But first I would like to try this for the school's forum. If all goes well then I might try this for my own forum as well. Also let me know if I can test XenForo on my school forum by installing it to another directory. No matter if that is private. I just wanted to test first.

In general, no, we don't provide discounts as we consider the price to be very reasonable.

Until January, the standard prices are discounted anyway, so if you are considering buying then you should do so soon, before the price increases - $125 -> $160.

Will it create a demo account at xenforo.com/community ?? Or will I get a setup to test XF by installing in one of my directory?

The demos are hosted on our server - you can't download it and install it on your own.

I've seen a thread on the forum and an article as well where it is said that XF license can be transferred. So, I have created a thread in Off-Topic board, but that thread is deleted with the message that trading is now allowed on the forum.

Where should I get the old license? I mean what should I do for that?

If you want to purchase a second hand license you will need to look elsewhere (e.g. a forum which deals with buying and selling software licenses) - we do not allow trading on this site.

Don't forget that you can transfer a license only once time. It is better to buy a new license till the end of december and if you don't like you can sell it at extra-license.com or somewhere else.

Okay, thank you.
