This is my cloudflare stats page. I don't know what the normal numbers should look like as I only just started using it. I'd guess that most here are okay. Maybe USA should be this high because it's a big country? But Brazil being the 2nd highest is absolutely anomalous. I put a Cloudflare rule...

Hi. I'm having serious issues with this on my forum too. Bots are filling up the xf_session_activity table. There's nearly 5k bots active at any one time. I've tried to block them using Cloudflare, but I'm just an amateur. I don't know what rules to set up or other methods to prevent them. I'm...

Upgrading to 2.3 isn't something I want to do right now. Is there no option to fix it on 2.2?

As stated in the title. Error logs below. Current PHP version is 8.3.0. What version do I need to fix this? My XF version is 2.2.17. I have looked here but can't find a bug report with the same XF version, so I don't know what PHP version is needed to address this. [SPOILER]#0...

So I recently took my XF forum off the cloud and put it on a self-hosted instance. The cloud version came with all the XF add-ons, but I never used the Resource Manager so I didn't buy it when I transferred off the cloud. Now the lack of the resource manager is causing errors to pop up. For...

They are external images displayed via the <img> HTML tag. I.E <img=[wikipedia's image of a cherry]> I've played around with this a bit more and figured out some weird stuff. How long does/should it take for a change to the user criteria on a notice to update? Do certain combinations of user...

I'm not sure how this is supposed to help; the problem isn't that guests are viewing images they shouldn't, it's that they can't see images they should be able to see. Is this just something baked into Xenforo I need an external add-on or plugin to fix?

Not sure if this is a bug or just an issue with permissions, so erring on the side of caution and posting it here. I'm trying to allow guests to see images I link in notices using HTML <img> tags. However, notices with these tags do not load for guests at all, though some report that they do...

Fair, I'll probably do so. Question; what does the 'This site is currently being upgraded, please check back later' notification actually mean in normal operation? When does it appear, what does it mean, etc?

To be clear, when I said 'import' the first time, I meant a straight copy/paste of the backup database files into the relevant folders of the new xenforo installation. I'm guessing that the issue I'm encountering (forum stuck 'upgrading') is that my backup is 2.2 while the installed XF version...

I have a XF cloud hosting package right now, but I'm trying to migrate to self-hosting on a linux VPS server. I have a docker and nginx set up, and a backup of the forum transferred to the server for testing purposes. However, problems start when I look at the readme that came with the backup...

Hi, sorry for the slight necro of this thread, but I'm in a similar situation except my import is from a cloud version, not from a different self-hosted version. Does the importer work the same way in both cases or is there a different procedure to follow?

Nevermind, managed to fix it. Turned out there was an issue where it wasn't properly distinguishing between warnings for members and warnings for posts.

Hi. I have a strange issue with Warnings on my forum. For starters, Public Warnings are not displaying properly for users. They appear to be breaking more or less at random; some users can see public warning icons on their posts. Some guests can't see those same warnings, while some other users...
