    Froala/message editor: copying/pasting text in tables creates new cells

    In XenForo 2.2.12, whenmaking or editing a message in WYSIWYG mode, pasting text that was copied from a table into another part of that table will also create a new cell around that pasted text. Basically, if I copy "Hello world!" from a larger block of text inside a table, in WYSIWYG mode...

    Editor & BB Code Manager

    I know this plugin isn't supported, but I was wondering if there's a way to use web fonts from services other than Google; for example, Adobe Web Fonts or Fontsquirrel?

    Fixed it. robots.txt was blocking style sheets and Javascript.

    XF 2.1 New Mobile Usability issues detected for site using default style

    Bumping this thread, because this just started to become a problem on my site about a week ago. Same thing with "Text too small to read". I didn't change any templates, so I don't know what the issue is.

    Fixed StopForumSpam API key no longer recognized

    /admin.php?options/groups/usersAndRegistration/ - XenForo no longer recognizes the API key I've been using (for years) for Stop Forum Spam as valid. The form field has a red outline. "Please match the requested format: Please enter a valid API key." error. The API is the exact same one...

    Convert image by domain [Paid]

    Great plugin! Any way to make this work with Photobucket? My site has hundreds of threads with blurry and watermarked images hosted on PHotobucket. The only way I can save them is to manually download the photos through Firefox, while using a couple of plugins to change the referrer, and edit...

    Has anyone ever offered to buy your forum?

    About 15 years ago or so, I had a couple of people express interest (the person who runs city-data.com, and maybe Internet Brands?), but they wouldn't name a price. I don't run my forum as a business, and didn't know how to value it. The only revenue at the time came from donations, and maybe...

    Upgrading from Vbulletin V4.2.3 to XenForo

    I converted from vBulletin 4, and the conversion process went smoothly. The only issue I had -- avatars that were in the database didn't convert over. I host my site in Liquid Web, and a lot of the performance and reliability issues I was having with vBulletin went away with XenForo.

    XF 2.1 Increase thread title length on forum home?

    Got it! I'm catching up with CSS, and unfortunately the result is text wrapping around the avatar image. It's going to take a lot more work to fix that, so I'll keep working on it. Thanks!

    XF 2.1 Increase thread title length on forum home?

    Thanks! Any way to get the thread titles to wrap onto additional lines in the cell, just like the subforum names?

    XF 2.1 Increase thread title length on forum home?

    The title is the question: how can I increase the displayed length of a title in the forum list on the forum home page? Right now, only about 30 characters of a thread title will display, and when there's a prefix, even less

    Spam bots on my site :( idk how to fix it. Any information would be great :)

    Stop Forum Spam - get an API and use it. Custom questions instead of a captcha. Avoid math questions, because the bots can solve them now. Require 10-15 seconds minimum on the registration page. Bots fill out the form and submit instantly. Get a country-blocking plugin, and block new...

    [XF 2.0] Google will only index about 30% of XenForo URLs

    OP here. I consolidated some old threads (but with tens of thousands, it’s only a tiny fraction), and increased the default posts/page length from 20 to 50. A couple of weeks later, there was a big bumping indexed pages - from about 14,000 pages indexed to over 47,000. How much of it I could...
