    XF 2.3 Insert regex expression into DB

    Firstly, you'll probably want to escape the backslashes. So \\ instead of \ as currently PHP will probably parse it as d rather than \d. Secondly, the correct format for that field is JSON, so it should look like: 'match_params' => '{"regex":"^SW-\\d{4}-\\d{4}-\\d{4}$"}',

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

    You never have to renew. It is entirely up to you when you do that. It costs the same whether you renew now or in 3 years time.

    Does XenForo Officially Support All S3-Compatible Object Storage?

    The original resource documents DigitalOcean (and S3) hence not mentioned.

    Does XenForo Officially Support All S3-Compatible Object Storage?

    There are no known limitations, though we haven't tested every provider. That being said, I can at least confirm: Backblaze B2 Cloudflare R2 Wasabi Vultr Are known to work through customer comments and my own testing.

    Yes. Which is different (much better) to how Invision works.

    Hidden birthday not really hidden.

    It isn’t included by default. OP added that trophy themselves and observed the behaviour.

    Hidden birthday not really hidden.

    This is really in the category of “just because you can, it doesn’t mean you should”. While you can award trophy points on someone’s birthday, it’s not really designed for that use case. The criteria is there because the criteria system is shared across different systems, e.g. notices. So...

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

    You are misrepresenting what I said. It didn't "take us 8 years" to realise anything. 8 years ago, the framework was as strong as it could be. It was literally brand new, written from the ground up. It's also not about dependencies. The third party dependencies we use are minimal, and have...

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

    Same, don't worry :) We don't currently have JSON support though this is on our list and absolutely a logical progression. The cool thing about, e.g. REGEXP (and will likely help with, e.g. IP/RLIKE etc.) is that can be implemented with user defined functions. Here's how we added REGEXP...

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

    Just remembered a more concrete example of something that previously would have needed a raw expression but now doesn't: $query ->selectIf( 'master.phrase_id IS NOT NULL', // $condition 'master.addon_id', // $true 'phrase.addon_id', // $false 'addon_id' //...

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

    Raw expressions are going to be tricky. Where possible, we’d like to add more features to the Builder (and finder) to reduce the need for raw expressions (some such things have been added already) and then they’re just handled at the grammar level. Despite that, raw expressions won’t be...
