    SEO impact of requiring all users to log in to read posts.

    We have a block add-on that enables Member A to ignore Member B but it also prevents Member B from seeing the posts Member A as well. Hopefully that clears up any confusion.

    SEO impact of requiring all users to log in to read posts.

    The issue isn't with the person who is doing the ignoring. It's got to do with the person that finds out that he has been ignored. Since he can't see the posts of the person that ignored him, the curiosity eats him up if anything is being said about him so he logs out and then revisits the...

    SEO impact of requiring all users to log in to read posts.

    One issue I've noticed with the ignore/block system is that some of my more psycho members will log out to read what's been said about them once they've found that they have been ignored or blocked by another user. Since we currently don't require users to be logged in just to read our forums...

    Sendgrid API Authentication Needed ASAP

    You can delete this thread. After digging into the docs, it appears they aren't requiring anything special from our side. The username and password setup for SMTP is still used but the difference is that they are requiring apikey as the username and then whatever the actual key is for the...

    Sendgrid API Authentication Needed ASAP

    Our servers run on the Google Cloud and per Google's recommendation, we set up Sendgrid for all outbound emails several years ago. Unfortunately, we received the following email today from Sendgrid: We are emailing to inform you of an upcoming requirement to update your authentication method...

    XF 2.1 Content bookmarks and the return of per-post share controls

    If I like the type of content that a member posts, I would very much be interested in the content that they bookmark, as that will lead me to even more great content that I would never be able to find on my own. Therefore, my suggestion for a future release is to allow members to publish their...

    [bd] Keyword Alert [Deleted]

    I purchased this add-on and I have a question. What are "excluded rules"? Some examples that are different from the userid example would be helpful. Also, what's the point of having a field called "Keyword Set"? I don't understand what that is used for.

    XF can't access Elasticsearch hosted service due to https.

    Elasticsearch support came back with this: Of course, all that is useless info since XF Enhanced Search for 1.5.x doesn't support authentication or https, so I opted to rebuild the search index via MySQL.

    XF can't access Elasticsearch hosted service due to https.

    That's a major problem because aside from users not being able to search, now moderators can't even delete posts because the elasticsearch server can't be accessed any longer.

    XF can't access Elasticsearch hosted service due to https.

    We've been using the hosted Elasticsearch service at cloud.elastic.co for our search indexing but now it appears they are forcing the use of https, which breaks XF 1.5.x's ability to use it, which is causing all sorts of errors. So https works...

    [TH] Like Threads [Deleted]

    One big request we get from our members is that the profile page of a certain user should show the list of threads that particular user has liked. That way, if I check out the profile page of a member I'm interested in, I will see threads that he liked, which means I may find those threads...

    XF 1.5 Server Error on logout

    I just moved my xf installation from a self-hosted solution to Google's Cloud SQL service, which is MySql 5.6 based. Everything is working fine except for one thing. There's a server error when users try to log out: Error Info Zend_Db_Statement_Mysqli_Exception: Mysqli statement execute error ...

    Lack of interest Downloading and Saving a Specific User's Content

    I know this is a specialized use case, but we have users in the financial services industry that use our forums and they need to be able to download and save their public posts and private messages for compliance purposes. It sure would be nice if there was a feature that supported that. The...
