New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

I don't think there is any support for this wonderful project anymore, unfortunately.
It is a pity that the owner does not deal with it at all, and completely turns not even to Joomla, but to wordpress.

Not available at this time. Stay tuned for new support infrastructure is what I understand.

Thank you, @startpoint and @cheyennemtnman! I hope they bring support subscription back.
See Media A-Team's most recent post here.
So, while at this point in time the long-term future of Fabrik might be not clear, you currently experience what I'd call "excellent and super-fast Community support" (e.g. by @troester, @juuser) and the occasional bugfix or even feature update on Github.
Not bad for a totally free power extension, eh! So, the moaning, groaning or even complaining of some remains a complete mystery to me... not at all sure what they expect beyond what's provided under current terms.
Maybe the often-asked-for custom "plug & play" config and code snippets for custom projects, or even complete solutions? Well, that wasn't even included in the typical paid support sub, either.
Could you hire experts for this sort of custom support then or now? Absolutely yes.

@lousyfool Don't get me wrong. I have always been very thankful of the support coming from the community - the outstanding support that we get for free. I am surprised that you think I am being ungrateful. I have always praised and complimented Fabrik for being an excellent appdev and db management component and for providing exceptional community support.
There are just times that I need immediate support which I am very much aware that I do not have the right to demand from the community because I know we are not entitled to it. That was an honest question/inquiry.
Just the same, many thanks.
I didn't mean you (or anyone specifically) in my post -- sorry if it came across differently. I said "some" in a generic way, without pointing at anyone in particular, hoping those "some" know who they are, haha... but obviously there's always the risk of others feeling falsely included.
Sorry again, @vinia, obviously you're understanding that certain things won't come for free... otherwise you wouldn't have asked for paid support.
At least for the time being, the old formats of "standard" or "professional" paid Fabrik support won't come back, and it's "Community support only", so much is sure (see also older/other Media A-Team posts).
So, I'd suggest that, when posting again and sensing it'll exceed what volunteers here are able and willing to do, you add a hint on "paid help also acceptable" or so. The usual suspects here will certainly respond if it's within their competence and quote e.g. per PM.

Agreed. I have commercial software with paid support that can't hold a candle to Troester, LousyFool, Juuser, etc. I have 10 customers running Fabrik and while I often think about what would happen if... I'm also convinced that enough people depending on this wonderful tool. Life will find a way...
