I have been running a small forum for about twenty years for a group of internet friends who have all known each other since 2004. We have about fifty users, and ran vBulletin until about say 2019 or so when we switched to Xenforo. I was paying about $120 in hosting for a small VPS every 60 or...

Hello! I have a Xenforo forum that was previously a vBulletin forum. The forum has been around for about 15 years in various forms and has a few million posts and the database is several gigabytes. So we don't do upgrades super often until we are very ready to do them. I am also the sole admin...

I could have sworn that a couple features of 2.1 are going to require some newer versions of PHP perhaps? But now I'm not finding where I saw that, has anyone seen what versions of PHP, and other software stack items etc are recommended?

I think it might have been this resource that used to let you embed Giantbomb.com videos, but now it just inserts the videos default image and no controls. Any thoughts?

I'm having this exact issue also, running the latest version of the plugin and any pastes of Amazon links into the editor just disappear from the post, if you edit the post you see: When the url was...

Nevermind! I found it! Thanks anyways.

Hello, my forum has tons of smilies and I'm sure I'm missing it but when you reply to a thread and click in the editor to start typing, all of our smilies appear by default, is there a way to not have that happen until you click the smilie button in the editor? Thanks!

I've read most of the faq's and things. But I'll be moving a forum that has, Threads 53,857 Posts 1,756,245 Members 1,108 from vBulletin 4.2.0. Any quirks I should know about moving that many posts and threads? I'll also hopefully be moving all our files, avatars, attachments. The forum is 7...
