    The silence is deafening and concerning...

    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...

    The silence is deafening and concerning...

    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... ;)

    The silence is deafening and concerning...

    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...

    under this thread there are two recommendeations for similar threads (both locked): The on from 2013 reads: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/the-silence-is-deafening.43799/ Sounds familiar? The one from 2022 reads...

    The silence is deafening and concerning...

    To be fair: Those open bugs are not all related to 2.3. Which realistically does not make it better, as many of them are very old and almost half have not recieved a reply or even a status update like "confirmed". Based on the bug forum it seems that bugs are reported by the users but barely...

    [XB] Year Recap [Paid]

    Thanks! So basically with thread views we have the choice between: a) display the total number of views only for threads that have been created in the selected year (no matter when the views happened, as a consequence the number of views, displayed for a certain year, will continue to rise in...

    [XB] Year Recap [Paid]

    @Painbaker : Any chance for a reaction to or even a quick fix of the thread views issue? It is somewhat embarrassing to announce a shiny statistic for the past year to my users and then it shows numbers that change massively, are dramatically wrong and dramatically too low: 2024: 2025: 2026...

    Where's the support team?

    Well: Communication or better the lack thereof (and sometimes the very rogue tone and attitude) has been an issue for years on many levels and been raised as an issue countless times. Hard to believe that this has been unrecognized, especially over the last months. But also before that - have...

    Where's the support team?

    Honestly: Fix the processes on XFs side and implement a proper ticket process with automatic replies and be explicit about availability of support. The main issue would have been avoided then and implementeing something like that is neither rocket science nor expensive. It is an absolute...

    Where's the support team?

    If you offer a paid cloud-service that is - by definition and nature of the service - used 365 days a year around the clock you should offer support 365 days a year. The more if it is not cheap. If you cannot or want not to offer that level of service I would personally this consider...

    Where's the support team?

    Once more a proof that it is always a good idea to actually read the thread you are posting to to understand the problem that is being discussed and to avoid giving ill-led advice. 👇

    Direct messages log [Paid]

    It will, as the average user has no idea what a table is (other than sitting at it during meals) or what plain text may be if not swearing. Most users have no technical background and consider private messages, well, private (no matter if PN is framed as personal message and not private...

    Add-on Update Notifier

    How would they know that if they had not been in the forums? Sure, they could have email-notifications turned on but people that do that are weird. :p Honestly: There is a huge interest to mark and get rid of abandoned add ons, especially if they are commercial / not free. We see continuously...
