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

    Perhaps we can speed up the process somehow. Perhaps we should think about sending a pallet of Mountain Dew to the TipTap devs.

    Google Adsense Help

    Ads are garbage. Consider having paid memberships to support your site so you can just remove the ads.

    Admin Back-end logging out

    Do you use Cloudflare for your site?

    User with 8,000+ posts requesting post deletion per GDRP

    You may run into a case where the username is still visible in posts that mention or quote them, so you may want to also what to set up a wordfilter (censoring) that changes the deleted user's username into something like "Deleted User" so to cover those edge cases as well.

    What benefits you gained from AI

    That's what X wants you do, so they can keep you on X and be the one serving ads to you. But I think the best sites on the web are lovingly-crafted independent websites, such as forums and indie websites. If you're getting info from an AI or staying in the walled gardens of mega social media...

    Suno!

    What benefits you gained from AI

    Also, AI makes pretty decent music these days. I've been making background tracks for my RPG nights using it.

    What benefits you gained from AI

    I've discovered that AI is good for making little animated memes for my RPG forum, where I can make an image of my character, then animate it, then turn it into a fun gif for Discord and forum use. I've posted an example above.

    Discord Integration [Paid]

    Yes, but unfortunately it can't be set by categories, so for instance if you have public categories everyone can see, and private categories only certain members can see, turning media notifications on will "leak" notifications from the private folders onto your Discord. EDIT: Sorry, I thought...

    Masses of server errors on two forums

    Makes sense. Actually, thinking back, I recall I had something similar where an outdated style (an old holiday themed one) was causing similar errors. They only happened when someone had set a preference for that style/theme. In the end the solution was removing the outdated template.

    Masses of server errors on two forums

    Let's change the way you're looking at this - you keep thinking it's something wrong with the way your forum is set up, but what if the issue is that your forum is being overrun by spam bots creating too many connections because too many spambots are visiting the site at the same time (along...

    What is the downside to SSO / Connected Accounts?

    Mainly having to set up an app, and then make sure your app is updated when the social media provider changes the way it's doing stuff. In short: Like anything you add, there's an occasional maintenance cost in terms of time.

    Is it just me or is Facebook Connect just not worth it anymore?

    We removed it after the whole Cambridge Analytica thing. And nothing of value was lost.

    Combining Two Boards

    I combined two forums before, but they were both mine. Basically I had an old phpBB2 board that was replaced after a hack broke it in 2007, and a new phpBB3 board that replaced it and had been in use since then. When I was moving my board to Xenforo, I went and discovered I could Frankstein...

    See ya TikTok!

    I think you miss the point. It is not the dancing that is the problem, it is that TikTok is a weapon of the Chinese government. Are your in-laws okay with the Chinese government spying on them? There is a lot of tension between China and the people of the Philippines. It seems like every day...
