It's already fairly easy to choose your own default colors (ACP and Default style). See: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/setting-like-config-admincolorhueshift-for-the-default-style.231584/

I'd be fine with a cap and FIFO system as it'd probably be easier than emailing the admin. As is, this would make novice self-hosted admins ante up to get fixed as you cannot get into control panels without free disk space. I wonder if XF Cloud is vulnerable to something like this happening...

It appears there was an error that continued due to continuous traffic pounding that task, taking the server offline. There should be no reason the error log can run rampant to about 2 million errors at a storage cost of 29.2 GB. If, say, an attacker learned of what could cause an error, they...

Without testing, setting View node to No for Registered should make all nodes invisible to regular Registered members (Yes for Administrative). Sub-forum Joe set to Yes for just Joe and they should see just that and its contents. Sub-forum Paul set to Yes for Paul and they should see that and...

This should be doable with Node permissions. admin.php?permissions/nodes/ For Registered, to make it less complicated (but you don't have to do it this way), View node should be set to No. This will make all nodes in Video Article Paul 1, etc., visible to no one. For the Administrative to see...

An interesting bit of information combining these two points, while building my directory out, I came across Scout Motors Inc. Per Wikipedia, it's an American division of German automotive manufacturer Volkswagen Group and a member of the Volkswagen Group companies. They chose to run their own...

Shameless plug: ForumDirectory.com based on XF. You can see the Directory's roundabout views (544,205) and clicks (10,571) at a 2% click-through (higher or lower depending on the niche). Though, many visitors go unlogged (viewable on Analytics), and unsure if all clicks are registered. Take...

I got it to work on 2GB RAM (utilizing 1GB) with this setup using Elasticsearch 7. ES8 just won't do that.

There's a config.php variable to change the ACP hue (to make it green to red to purple—whatever shades you want). @Russ also explains in my styling question — similar to your suggestion — how easy it is to change the Default style's hue to be pretty much anything. After following this thread...

tl'dr: You're mad you got banned for not having "free speech" (which, by the way, isn't even tolerated on these forums to a degree) so you spread libel (you provided 0 credible evidence to support your claim) on an open forum and, in retaliation, trying to actively get their license revoked. To...

Fixed it. Honesty would mean following through with consistent communication. This was promised. It has also been repeatedly asked for by customers in the 2.4 threads.

He likely built that into his styles. This would work with a Font Awesome change. https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cxf-light-and-dark-mode-switch.7607/

That sounds good for events, too. But, I'd have to fall back on threads linked to markers there even more, as you'd eventually (possibly) want to add more information about the event other than the location, e.g. price, as well as organizers, partners, etc., and discussion leading up to the...

This is possible, but you're looking in the wrong area. I believe these URLs are changeable in Development Mode, if I recall correctly, as I've done ####-thread-title (or something similar). The variables on the correct setting page will look more like {str:name} and {int:id} though. Moving...

Thanks for digging that quote up. Looking at 2.2 releases (after the 2019 quote) signals that's not quite true either, and should have clarification, as I believe 2.2 was updated for something other than a security fix (perhaps a PayPal issue) after 2.3 was released. Someone else could do the...
