    'Set everything to private' button in privacy settings

    Xenforo has extensive privacy settings and preferences. Addons can add a lot more. It would be useful if users have one button to set everything to private, unsubscribe from all emails, etc.

    XF 2.3 Bounces email mailbox

    No, thats not needed. But it may not be a free email provider like gmail, hotmail. I used mxroute inbox with a domain I own, which worked well. I did switch to Amazon SNS API which works better. The benefit of API is that its instant and you never have the problem of inbox retrieval issues. I...

    User Essentials [Paid]

    I keep getting complaints from users that cannot self-disable their account. Permission analysis shows they have permission to self disable. I don't see anything that may block it. The user self-disable log does show many entries but those seem to be caused by staff disabling of accounts. Where...

    [Liam W] (RIP) Member Self Delete

    I keep getting complaints from users that cannot self-delete their account. Permission analysis shows they have permission to self delete. I don't see anything in the criteria to block it. One member mentioned they got a message about their account age blocking deletion. I found the phrase: Is...

    [XB] Text to Speech [Paid]

    Weird. That means it should work on Chrome/Firefox on android. Can this be a style compatibility issue? I'm using PixelExit XenBase / Nova style. Would it be possible to hide the functionality on Opera Android/Webview? icon size setting is not there...

    Happy Birthday Emails

    Neither of these. I deleted the usergroup itself without removing it from the addon excluded groups. As the usergroup itself was deleted, it was also gone from the addon excluded groups. December 31st is when I deleted the usergroup itself. From that point on the addon seems to have ignored...

    Happy Birthday Emails

    There seems to be a bug that causes 1000+ hard bounces a day. On November 23rd 2025 (After your update above) I excluded a usergroup 'bad email' from receiving birthday email. On December 31st 2025 I removed the usergroup from the system, because all these users their email had been...

    XF 2.3 What's new in XenForo 2.3.8?

    Xenforo has a history of low quality addons in the resources and addon coders producing low quality code. Not to speak of those who release nothing and only offer coding by DM. Admins with big boards will probably have learned the hard way that its unwise to install addons with unknown code...

    [XB] Text to Speech [Paid]

    Its too bad that the icons / links for the function display on browsers were it does not function. Even though this functionality does not seem to function on most browsers, it would still be nice to offer the functionality on those. But adding malfunctioning icons and links just seems buggy and...

    [XB] Text to Speech [Paid]

    I bought it to try it, but it doesn't seem to work on Firefox/Opera/Chrome on Android. Is there something the user needs to do to enable it on Android? Or are these all Webview based and incompatible? It works on desktop and on Samsung android browser, but my main use case is for the most...

    XF 2.4 Custom Field Improvements: Filtering and more!

    I hope that this will mean that features eventually get implemented for all content types. i.e. if you add custom field types, then eventually make these available in any content type where they might be useful. I don't mean this as criticism, but I think such consistency would be to be benefit...

    XF 2.4 Custom Field Improvements: Filtering and more!

    Custom profile field filtering would make sense for big boards with fragmented audience. For example if part of the members are developers, then a filter on a custom field for that would be useful. Custom fields can be useful in any content type. I would use it in resources, media and major...

    Signup abuse detection and blocking [Paid]

    I see your point, but it seems allowing members to have multiple email accounts will make it overly complex. We dont want members to have multiple email addresses. We still need the new member to confirm their email address.
