Hi Chris Will 2.0 be more "accessible" to code for? My Dev is a whizz at vBulletin but found Xenforo too "uphill going" (that's one of the reasons we haven't moved over yet. I am a customisation freak so I have a bazillion custom tweaks to replicate when I make the move.) I get the feeling...

Just checking in after a long break - How is the old different taxonomy thing going for people using tags? Working well? I have an array of perhaps 50 tags my members could use (not all at once, 2 or 3 at once is fine, but they need a broad spectrum of tag choices) That can make for a REALLY...

I am a 2.0 kind of dude...

Any suggestions? I am about to procede with WSN.

Perhaps some bad voodoo is going on between the magic track pad and the "normal" key & click action. The track pad is new for me. I kneed spall chakker.

Serving banner ads & how that is done exactly....is a consideration for some, is for me..

Spell checking on my MB Air + bluetooth keyboard and magic track pad is not going well.. spallchakker Clicking on that redlined word above does NOT envoke my usual spellchacker options.. What gives ? Is it my fault?

Yes - I feel a pre defined tag list will help define a forums 'direction' well and allow for tag topic easy search.. Whats not to like about a tag cloud of admin defined topics? I feel this would provide an 'at a glance' overview for newbies and casual visitors -make the UI less confusing...

Offencive Spam Off topic Wrong forum I think my members dont like to feel like "snitches" - they argue a lot though - so I am in need of a reporting made easy system.. I also fully belive that 80% of them dont know where the report a post function IS on VB ! OK please concider it - or some...

A lot of you are missing the point re Tapatalk costing your members money. I purchased a white lable version from them. it took a few weeks to sort out.The whole process went very smoothly and now I have (via them doing all the sumbission paperwork) my own app in the iTunes store... I have...

Help us old folks that need reading glasses!

I want to bring online a members services directory. At the moment the best I can think of is to use WSNDirectory http://www.wsndirectory.com/ But while it seems super featured it is a little scary from a non tech point of view..! Perhaps someone can code something inbetween? With paid...

Life is a bowel of cherries

I didn't code it - so my terminology might be incorrect. Quite possibly the coder organized it the way you mention. its a busy forum across 3 servers and a load balancer and there is no slow down since we added it and it DOES help us catch a lot of the BADDIES. :D
