Thanks, Brogan, it appears to have done the trick. Appreciate the excellent support!

Thanks for your replies, Brogan and Thordacci. Should I see a "spam" button somewhere in a thread as the administrator? I can't seem to find the spam cleaner anywhere. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thank you!

Hi everyone, While I wasn't paying attention, a forum I put up but hadn't launched yet was somehow inundated with spam users and spam threads. I see the option to delete users in the Admin CP, but I don't see anywhere I can select to delete everything they've posted (threads, private messages...

Thanks, James, I'll look into it! Hopefully multi select is among the available user field types. If not, hopefully it won't be too difficult to add. Appreciate the guidance!

Exactly, Symfony is just the framework I'm already most familiar with. The application I have in mind really comes down to having n additional profile fields of various types and a way to allow searching profiles by various combinations of criteria, so I'm hoping it will be straightforward...

Thanks, everyone, I appreciate the advice. Given the expected timeline, I would rather see if I can get something going and then migrate rather than waiting 8 months or however long to begin. I'm going to start with the resources sbj suggested. If anyone has any additional thoughts on good...

Thanks a lot, sbj!

Hi everyone, I know that there are random tutorials available in the Development Help forums, but I don't know which are out of date, contain best practices, etc. I'd like to develop in a way that ensures things I make don't break when XenForo is updated. Is there any kind of authoritative...

Thanks, but there's nothing about whether to show empty category title bars listed in the options there.

Hi Sakata Gintoki, did you see the image I attached? There is just an empty bar above the forum list where the category name would have been if the forums were children of a category instead of root. I may have to move everything back under a category after all since I've just discovered sub...

Hello, I realized all of the forum nodes I added were in the main category, so it made sense to move them to root and eliminate the main category (since it served no purpose). However, the peach bar that previously contained the category name still appears, though now it's empty (see attached)...

Thank you, Chris.

Thank you, ŽivaAkcija.

Hello, I've Googled and searched the forum but cannot find information about how to add a custom question to the registration process in order to thwart spammers, e.g. "What was the name of the narrator's alter ego in Fight Club"? Can anyone tell me how this can be achieved? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply, Chris. Based on your knowledge of XenForo development, do you think it would be very difficult for somebody new to the platform to figure out how to make searching custom profile fields available to all users/guests?
