I also cannot change my password for the customer area – when I click the “Forgot Your Password?” link, I can enter my email address, but this only redirects me to an empty page. I also get an email containing a link, but that again only sends me to an empty page. So either the reset is not...

Is there any chance we might get stemming support for other languages in the foreseeable future? That would be a really cool addition (although I'm definitely gonna use this if I migrate my big board to XF, with or without stemming).

Yes, I just wanted to point out that those 3/25 mio numbers probably include international sales. :) Also, you really can not buy any phone without a contract? Subsidized phones with 2-year contracts are pretty common here in Germany too, but as far as I know you can buy almost every phone...

I think you currently can’t in the U.S. (at least until November), but it’s possible elsewhere; e.g. here in Germany, you can pre-order unlocked iPhones for use on any carrier directly from Apple. But I think the phone market in the U.S. is generally more restricted and less customer-friendly...

What ankurs said. By your logic, people shouldn’t buy iPhones at all, because there will always be a new model in a year. Also, what about people who don’t buy their iPhones with a 2-year contract?

Look in the library/XFCliImporter folder. There’s an import.php script for running from the command line and an XF add-on. I don’t exactly know how to use this, but it’s definitely in the 1.1 beta releases.

You can be pretty sure the blue stuff will disappear soon. Manager Josh didn’t link the source for those screenshots, but they are from Mike Tougeron’s Google+ page, with the warning “Remember, this is VERY ROUGH and an incomplete product. It will look very different by the time we get to Beta.”

We’ll see how the templates look when 1.1 is out, but it looks like ignored content is only hidden via CSS anyway. So a simple “.bbCodeQuote.ignored { display: block !important; }” in the CSS is enough to show quotes by ignored users. Not really an elegant solution of course; but works on any...

Yes, that’s what I meant. But okay, I’ll find a way to change it.

Can that be disabled? The problem is, when you still see the reply to a quote, but not the quote itself, there is context missing, and sometimes the reply then looks completely random and unrelated and you have no idea why. Also, at least in my forum, people write quotes without attribution all...

11-25. The actual number changes sometime, but it’s usually somewhere in the lower part of that range (although only a few of those are user-selectable – the forum hosts the forums of several websites as separate categories, and each of those has it’s own design). Running vBulletin at the moment.

Now I’m importing on localhost and it more or less works (had to change a couple of PM titles containing weird HTML entities and yahoo ID fields in user’s profiles which contained non-ASCII characters). But now much of my content (most PMs, and many threads) show up twice. No idea why that...

Depends on whether you use ' (ASCII) or ’ (non-ASCII) as apostrophe. Although I had no such problems in forum titles (or user names and some of the profile fields, for that matter – only the yahoo field was problematic). And to find the problematic characters, I looked into the database with...

User import ate ridiculous amounts of memory on my server and was really slow. When I tried it on localhost, it basically worked, but I had to remove multiple profile fields containing non-ASCII characters from the database by hand, and had similar problems with PMs. I voted for the third...

This is a valid point. At the moment, users of a mod basically get punished if the mod’s author does not renew (for whatever reason). While I think the current rules are mostly reasonable, I think charging for permission to support your own software is the one point that’s really problematic...
