    Ah, thanks, the selection is indeed two steps down the road after the first pulldown and you hit download (and the preview is there)!

    Try out the XenForo 2.3.8 Preview!

    Given that this breaks the good old "never release on a Friday" rule the team must be pretty convinced that this thing is stable! (y)

    Absolutely. That is the reason why I prefer a smaller seller if the rest is equal (and sometimes even if it's not): you'll typically get better, more individual and more personal customer service instead of standard replies and processes. Still bigger investments in products (aka development...

    Sure. On the other hand that is the case as well if a forum has nothing else to offer than good, high quality content and a decent community culture. There are literally hundreds examples for this. W/o that a forum won't find visitors and struggle with longterm survival, no matter what fancy...

    I'don't think and feel "everything is ok" - how do you come to that conclusion? Rather the opposite. But I've seen and been in situations like that often enough that I see the structural reasons that possibly lead to a situation like that. This makes me more relaxed as I see that what is...

    If we look at Wikipedia XF 1.0 was released in March 2011 and 1.1 was released in Nov 2011: So you are basically talking about a timespan of six months 15 years ago and make this the reference of how things used to be and how they still should be now. This is a bit like daydreaming of your...

    The last update was 2.3.7 and it was released exactly six months ago. Hardly what one would objectively consider to be a "concerning amount of time". Sure. But the issue seems to be rather an emotional one than a real threat. The problem lies in expectation management: 2.4 was announced on...

    On a positive note: From the start-posting of the thread on Oc. 14th 2025: and the state on last Sunday the situation has visibly improved. The number of threads in the bug-reports forum has shrunk to 756. Since the release of 2.3.7 almost six months ago roughly 140 bugs have been moved to...

    No, as is has worked before and furthermore the bug only hit if pics were added to a post as an attachment via the "attach"-button, not when added via others ways. It was caused by a code change in this area - simply a bug and nothing that would hinder shared hosting when solved. But indeed the...

    He answered to my post by quoting me and attacking me for the hint I gave, claiming this hint would be a request by XenForo. Then further using "you" within his rage-post. Given that he seems to be running a forum himself he should probably know what a discussion thread is and how it works, what...

    My hint was a pragmatic way for @fireiggyfire to overcome the issue he has by using the existing options he himself has w/o being dependent from a feature that would have to be implemented by XF staff. I was not a request to you what you should do. When there will be an update there will no...

    You could use what has been already there for ages for exactly that purpose... ;)

    To be fair: The latest news was on Dec. 5th, somewhat over a month ago (though as a message within a thread and not in form of a dedicate news): In the very same post quoted above @Chris D said: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/if-xenforos-finished-whats-next.234257/page-8#post-1766583...
