How many forums can xenforo handle?

[Robby]

Hello,

On my new forum i'm working with a lot of private forums.
Does anyone knows how much forums xenforo can handle.
It's easy to say unlimited because, let's face it, at a certain point there will be issues or i'm a wrong?

Well Digital Point has 139 (approx) visible forums and doesn't seem to be doing too badly

As many as you need.

Yeah but 139 is not what i need.
I'm thinking something about several thousands, it will be private forums...

That's why I said visible I don't know how many he might have hidden away. Might be worth asking him @digitalpoint

 

[Robby]

it are private forums so it will be a select group per forum...
I will ask shawn, thanks...

XenForo should be able to handle it, and 1.2 changes the way permissions are rebuilt, so you shouldn't have a problem with so many permissions masks.
