django-djeddit

Bare bones Django forum application with Reddit like features developed as a Django reusable app.

• comments are ranked using wilson scoring interval and displayed in a collapsable tree structure (using django-mptt)
• voting functionality for threads & comments
• compatible with mobile screen sizes (using Bootstrap)
• users management page for admins
• admins can lock/unlock, edit, delete threads and posts, edit & delete topics

django-registration-redux is recommanded to go along with this app if you need out of the box user registration functionality.
