So, does it have any source code? Or documentation? An empty forum isn't much of a project page.

No one will test your compiler. You have given no details about it (language, ABI, benchmarks, etc.) and people have to go through the trouble of registering just to find out what it is. I for one, have lost interest.

Useless forum with no threads, nobody likes being force to register at some shady temporary forum site.

Hell, you didn't even mention what language your compiler is targeting here.. so I'm going to assume you didn't put much thought into this at all.

Looks like you know enough to make a new thread and post a worthwhile announcement instead of some hit-and-run vapourware...

I have no experience about setting forum, and I post a language & syntax thread there before.
And the permission for guests is: view forum & read topics.

This board has no forums.

It should be the problem of forumer.com's service.
Other users encounter the same situation.

Hi,

One user's solution to the problem (per the link you posted) was:
Categories will only show when they have a forum in them, an "empty" category will not display......also....... you need to set the permissions right for the forums (and categories) to show up .....
Alternatively, if the forum is broken, use a different provider and check everything works before posting an announcement here. Alternatively, if you want to convey information about your new compiler in a more user-friendly format, you could try putting the info up on a wiki.

Cheers,
Adam
