Either I am using this wrong or the RegEx is broken on this. If you use the following ^Conversation with GrnEyedDvl$ It sticks the message in the last folder in the list even if that folder has no regex expression entered. If this is not the correct way to use it then you need to post some examples.

And I would argue that the idea that society goes after the manufacturer of any product for what irresponsible or nefarious people do with that product is a very slippery slope. Alcohol and guns are the two big ones as far as physical products. But whether its a physical product or a digital one...

I have seen it. I would call that one Trophy Basics not Essentials. It does not cover everything it could, and practically none of what I want covered. I am not giving trophies (renamed Achievements) on my site for post count or for rep count. People are going to post. I want them to do more...

I have badges. Its not the same thing, I use it for something else.

The Trophy system is very cumbersome to setup unless I am missing something, which I think is part of the reason I see so many comments here about people not using it. Especially if you want points to keep building over time. If you do not continuously add triggers then eventually your users...

So you want to disable it without deleting it?

When you have large files (gig size +) that have several updates, storing each version is pretty resource intensive and most people are not interested in downloading an old version. But deleting an old version currently deletes the history that goes with it including download count and ratings...

I already acknowledged that they should remove that option from the list. See post #7. They probably did not consider that someone would try to force a rich text box to not be a rich text box and instead limit it to links only. I would not have considered that either because to me that is the...

Well there is a difference between embedding and linking. A URL is designed only to link. The embedding/unfurling is a feature built into forum posts, but it is not built into every place there is a rich text box. That is not a native function of hyperlinks which is why there is a separate box...

I don't because I actually want people to search. That means they are engaging. I do not know how often those stats update though. The oldest mine could possibly be from early March as that is when I installed Elastic Search.

The point of a rich text box is that you can do all kinds of formatting with it, some of that formatting would break a URL. So the real solution to this problem is not to allow you to check that URL setting for a rich text box. If that setting worked on a rich text box, then the only thing you...

This is 100% true, I added it as a test. Its definitely a potential landmine, which is why I mentioned it. When a forum owner is looking at things they can do, we do not know the mindset that was going on in the minds of the people that wrote this particular piece of code. Nor should we be...

Well, for one other case since you mentioned the notice. I would bet that the percentage of sites that use notices like that would be pretty small. Just trying to figure out ways to make the trophy system more useful and this came up.

If you enable the Today's Birthday in the Trophies and give out points for a members birthday, points are awarded and timestamped even if the member has "Show day and month" unchecked in their account settings. This makes that setting completely unusable if a single member does not want that...

What is in the file?
