    XF 2.4 Tiptap: A new editor for XenForo

    WYSWYG Markdown editor is what Obsidian (my experience with it) uses and it is pretty neat. Looking forward to this... soon. LOL. :)

    New home for all XenForo documentation

    This. Both websites and forums are dead already. Zero-click Internet with only big corporate owned social networks and sites for selling stuff (goods and services - though even those will get assimilated by a few major players like Amazon). I think it's a waste of resources to build official...

    New home for all XenForo documentation

    That 50% probably counts all the one-page abandoned stuff as well (not sure about the free hosted Wordpress.com sites - I would not be surprised if those too count as one each). That aside, how many of those want and need to connect Wordpress to Xenforo? Every extra supported feature takes...

    If XenForo's finished, what's next?

    Updates may take long, but what's the rush? Stable beats fast or updating for update sake. Xenforo works very nicely. We aren't left with broken software to eagerly wait for a fix. No. Even PHP support is current, up-to-date (on that hamster-wheel of chasing those to stay with the supported...

    Optimization, security, customization or: How I jumped on my own sword :)

    I did a major redesign in terms of making the two language versions stand out clearly, while drastically reducing the number of stuff listed on the front page (no wall of text as is the case with most forums including this very XenForo community front page): Basic layout...

    Add-on Where do you stand on selling addons to Russian businesses?

    Take this one example where I have reliable info: No. Sanctions were at best a convenient excuse for the Serbian politician(s) to "save face," but that's as far as it goes (even that is a stretch). Regarding that "Bosnia War" - my comments on the decent BBC documentary...

    Add-on Where do you stand on selling addons to Russian businesses?

    The first two posts talk only about "feeling uncomfortable" "doing business with a Russian organisation." No technical talk about sanctions and legal boundaries, but feelings (i.e. moral judgements). At least that's what it looks like to me - everyone can read and decide for themselves.

    Add-on Where do you stand on selling addons to Russian businesses?

    Sanctions (or bombs) don't motivate people against the government (any more than they already are motivated). From my first hand experience, I've concluded that it in fact makes it easier for the government to stay in power. I suppose most people can't know that because propaganda says...

    Add-on Where do you stand on selling addons to Russian businesses?

    As someone who's grown up in sanctions - and protested against the government - I can confirm that sanctions mostly punish the normal people and nothing else. Politicians who impose them know that very well - but the general public is brainwashed into believing that sanctions do something for...

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    Not really. It is more like outright ban of any kind of links, regardless of the context and link type.

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    Apparently, the solution is to ban anyone posting any link(s). :) Such platforms are not my cup of tea - even though most people seem to love them. A practical example of what I see as unreasonable to ban/delete...

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    Yeah - Internet without its basic building element, links, is what the corporations openly require. LOL. **** 'em.

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    This strongly implies that XenForo devs are not into vibe coding... :)

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    Not necessarily. :) If your article gets linked and discussed on reddit, googling even for the exact article title is very likely to return the Reddit thread. Talk about irony - and (shady) deals. Edit: I got banned from Quora too - LOL.

    XF 2.4 general discussion, feedback, complaints, random off topic posts, etc.

    From my experience, I would say that this is incorrect. Definitely more nuanced than what you say. It is a Google issue - and depending on the exact pages (and searches) compared, you can often see forum threads beat WordPress articles (even with good on-page/site SEO for WP). Even if the WP...
