15-day free trial · no credit card · you own your data
One platform, every kind of community
Pick a scenario and see how ComBase fits it.
Meet the people who use your product
Turn scattered support into one searchable place your customers actually enjoy using.
- Support threads become a knowledge base you build once
- Announcements and changelogs your users can follow
- Power users answer each other — so you answer once
A whole community stack, in one calm product
No plugin zoo, no six tools duct-taped together. The pieces you need, built to work as one.
Threaded discussions
Forums and sub-forums, rich-text posts, replies, reactions and a live feed. The conversation people already know how to have.
Moderation that scales
A reports queue, pin and lock, remove content, ban abusers and staff roles — keep the place healthy without living in it.
Pages & wiki
A hierarchical pages CMS with a rich editor for rules, guides and docs — plus external links straight to anywhere you like.
Make it unmistakably yours
One brand colour propagates everywhere. Logo, fonts, layout, density, dark or light — a dozen switches, no two forums alike.
Ranks & roles
Members climb through ranks automatically as they post and stick around. Assign moderators and admins in a click.
Found on day one
Real SEO out of the box — sitemaps, meta tags, Open Graph and structured data — so your community shows up in search.
Search that finds it
Full-text search across every thread, post and page — on its own page or right in the header, so nothing ever gets lost.
Members & profiles
Public profiles with bios, activity and social links, plus a contribution leaderboard that celebrates your regulars.
…& a lot more!
Notifications, bookmarks, tags, private & password-gated forums, a members directory, dark mode, an activity feed — the whole toolkit, in the box.
Your brand, down to the pixel
This is where ComBase earns its name. Set one colour and it flows through the whole site. Upload logos for light and dark, pick a body and a wordmark font, and rearrange the furniture until it feels like home — a space that's unmistakably yours.
- Colour, logo, fonts and favicon — set once, applied everywhere
- Sidebar left or right, contained or full-width
- Light, dark, or let each member choose
- A visual navigation editor — no code, ever
