I had a member come to me today saying he was getting an insufficient permissions message when trying to start a new thread in a Node but he is able to post in a sibling Node even though both Nodes inherit permissions from the same parent. When I use the Analyze Permissions tool, it indicates...

Thanks! I'm not inclined to use that add-on given the beta status and the performance warnings coupled with the size of my board (12M messages in 600K discussions).

:( This was just what I was looking for

I have the same issue.

Thanks!

Here's an example: http://www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/whats-still-up-with-the-weird-poll-choices.1596092 That's poll 10222. I don't know the data that well but the records in xf_poll_response look a bit squirrelly to me.

When creating a poll on my board, we seem to get extra choices not entered by the user. Based on the values, they seem to be some sort of cached data. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Thanks!

The board I run is pretty big (IMO): 11M Posts & 7M Conversations (most are individual PMs imported from vB). The dump file from mysqldump is getting rather unwieldy and I was wondering if there are any tables that I can omit from my dump (e.g., xf_bb_code_parse_cache) that I could reasonably...

There are always some curmudgeons but in general folks are pretty satisfied after the switch. The biggest pushback is probably because we took the opportunity to rid ourselves of Tapatalk. We had a number of issues where the app would work around some of our add-ons and cause admin...

Thanks! The site owners were very nervous about scaring off the old-time members who'd become used to that style after 15 years on vB. The guy who created the skin did a nice job of keeping it comfortably familiar while providing support for XF's newer functions.

That ended up being the issue. I got the bug fixed in the add-on and everything's hunky dory. Thanks!

Thanks! The bad news is that my board is set up to use last message, descending but as you can see from the screen shot, that's not what's happening.

My board just went live on XF this morning after nearly 15 years on vBulletin. :) After a few initial issues, the biggest current irritation is that the posts aren't appearing in the expected order (last post, descending). Is there something wonky in my forum config or is there another issue...

Also, on my board, some ill-behaved members get a persecution complex and try to claim that a mod is out to get him.
