    Add Support for Prefixes

    This suggestion, dating back to 2014 (!) is an excellent example for both: How useless it is to make suggestions or vote on them and how unloved MG is by it's owners. This is one of the many features that should not need a suggestion and still should have been implemented ages ago.

    At last! DPreview.com moving to Xenforo

    As until now, according to their announcement, they have relied on a self-baked forum software they should have staff able to do that. On the other hand it is a bit strange for such a huge forum to move to XF now, given that 2.4 is "almost ready". The more with massive customizations that would...

    At last! DPreview.com moving to Xenforo

    Dpreview write in their announcement: Hard to imagine that they are referring to the XF Media Gallery add on here. If they do their photo gallery until now must have been abysmal. However, they made a video about the change and you can see their Gallery there: Other than that a new customer...

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    :oops: And - despite it's age - it has in opposite to XenForo a search function that finds two- and three letter words (but seems to be limited to 200 results per search).

    Spam Prevention - Other Solutions

    What Do you want to say with your no-word post? It is no news that @Ozzy47 demanded his add ons to be delisted from this forum due to a beef with staff here a couple of months ago but it is also no news that they are developed and supported further and also sold further via his own website - as...

    Spam Prevention - Other Solutions

    Did you search the forums and the add ons section? Threre are countless threads about the topic already and also a small set of recommended add ons as well as best practices, some of them already mentioned in this thread. I use the registration spaminator and login spaminator by @Ozzy47 (which...

    Massive increase in Guest users online

    Due to the nature of how this add on works (as does the built in way in XF) this is way from comprehensive. It simply relates to the user agent the client submits, so this approach fully depends from honesty and cooperation of the client. As it is trival to submit any name for the user agent...

    XF 2.3 Linking back to an index

    As a different approach you may like this add on: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/ozzmodz-rules.8491/ For your current one maybe this would help: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/slions-table-of-content.8222/

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    Do you know the difference between a bug report, a confirmed functional bug, a bugfix release and a security issue and a security release? Seems not to be the case. Or you just want to troll. While the responsiveness towards bug reports leaves a lot to be desired (to say it politely) - a fact...

    XF 2.3 Creating a 'form-based' template for posts?

    From my point of view it was a clash of egos, unneccessary and not helpful, but with bad consequences for everyone: for the users, for this forum, for XF and for @Ozzy47 While Advanced Forms works well it is in my eyes not ideal for what the OP of this threads intends and maybe also not for...

    XF 2.3 Creating a 'form-based' template for posts?

    I think he would still be allowed to post (he has not been banned AFAIK) but decided on his own that he no longer wants to be active here. Advnced Forms. The fact that it is not listed here any more (as a decision of the developer of the AddOn) does neither stop it from working nor from being...

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    Do you know of a security issue in XenForo? Did you look at the code? If not: Would you feel better if XF released a monthly security update with nothing in it but dummy code? It would be a total security theatre - but silence your criticism (despite in fact there would not be a difference vs...

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    While for the innocent your observation makes sense reality is more complex. However, given your earlier statement... ... your post is a little surprising as you should know better and not be part of the innocent brigade, judging from the very strong opinion you have. However: There is no such...
