Seem to be having an issue with threads using the wiki BB code in the first post when using the XF article layout. It appears the Wiki BB code is not being rendered and the article preview literally just shows the contents of the tag. So for example, say the Wiki page is "my_wiki_page" and I...

What would happen if someone edited one of the threads, or made new threads in there, would it affect the wiki?

Really interested in this, I have some questions after looking over your site. It seems there is a forum area where all the wiki pages are that is unlisted. Does the wiki store all its pages etc in that forum area or is that doing an export to allow the discussions? What happens if someone...

We have some videos in our gallery that were imported and are some older format of mp4, I think something to do with google changing the method of encoding etc but basically these no longer play in Firefox. These do work when uploaded new, as we have the transcode option enabled, but is there a...

Thanks for the reply Chris, we didn't do anything to our IPB3.4.x gallery to support videos, it has always done it from when we started with it - it doesn't make thumbnails or transcode or anything like XFMG does, but it has a nice player and shows a generic video icon with an option to upload a...

An update, I had a look in the db, found one of the videos in the xf_mg_media_item table and set media_type="video", that got the page all working, but no video, trying to view it gives me a path of /data/xfmg/video/2/<filename> which gave a 404, on the filesystem there is no such folder called...

Hi all, I have an issue in media gallery, I imported from IPB gallery 3.4.x into 1.1.18 of XFMG, and it appears to have imported all the videos as 'images', it has the video files, but in the category listing it has the image logo. Trying to view it gives a blank area with just the title, like a...

The import tool does ask to choose between taking the 'first question' or 'the last question' before it starts the import, but its not per poll, so somewhat random effect on the poll depending on if the creator put the important question first or last.

It might be, I'm trying to check but not having much luck finding that out from the db, they all seem to have unique pid and tid numbers, which I'm thinking might be poll and topic id. Ok I found something, the same question 2 times with same tid but different pid. Looking at the thread in ipb...

Hello, I am having an issue with the importer, I get the following error: I found various other threads regarding issues with polls, but when looking in the files where a fix is suggested, the line numbers are very different, therefore I didn't want to change things as it was likely for an...

Many thanks for the quick reply, and I greatly appreciate not needing an active license to upgrade. Can XF2 import directly from IPB 3.4.7? I thought it can only import from 4.x. I have the IPB gallery I'd need to import into XFMG as well. Thanks again.

Hi all, I'm asking this question having just hit this issue on a competitor's software, and wanted to see what the situation would be with XenForo. If I buy a license, and say i get (version numbers just an example) XF 2.1, I use and run it fine. Then, lets say XF 3.0 is released 6 months...
