Previous versions

• nuBuilder Forte Version 4 is still available here:
  • Github by Steven Copley | Sourceforge
  • Updated Github version by Ap.Muthu - Has many backported fixes besides Hindi and Tamil language support. This version fork is useful for those who cannot upgrade for any reason (older versions of server components like MySQL, PHP, Apache, poor hardware, expensive / no technical support, etc) and/or do not want the extra features of v4.5 and their existing application is quite stable besides comfort of codebase version familiarity.

• nuBuilder Forte Wordpress plugin from Wordpress. This is no longer supported in newer builds. Its Github repo is now archived.
