Your community.
Your conversation.
Convoa brings forums, a welcoming portal, community albums, instant chat, news and private messaging together in one polished community platform.
More than a forum.
Built on the proven phpBB3 foundation, Convoa turns a traditional discussion board into a richer home for your community.
Community portal
A useful front door for news, recent topics, polls, community statistics and conversation highlights.
Powerful forums
The familiar depth of phpBB3 for organised discussions, moderation, categories, subforums and member activity.
Photo albums
Member galleries and shared community imagery give your site a visual life beyond discussion threads.
Instant chat
A lightweight community messenger for quick conversations alongside longer-form forum discussions.
News feed
Surface community updates in an attractive, easy-to-scan news experience with direct links into discussions.
Private messages
Built-in member-to-member messaging, folders and controls, all integrated with the phpBB user experience.
A familiar community, beautifully presented.
