Eons ago (2018) I already planned to migrate my vB 3.8 forum to Xenforo, but life circumstances got heavily in the way. I remember I found many recommendations pointing to @Slavik who offers these kinds of services...

Aha, thanks to this discussion I realised I read the upgrade information wrong, published here: https://xenforo.com/solutions/#upgradeI am in the same boat as @Kestryll. I am still on vB 3.8 (hides self in attic) and would love to get professional support on migrating my forum to the latest...

Yup, can you believe it?! 🤯😱 (Amazing that you @Alpha1 are still around here as well bytheway, our last DM conversation was 10 years ago… I can’t believe how fast time has gone! 🚀)

Gosh... it has been 6 years ago that I posted my last proper posting on this (still) fantastic platform 😊. I can confirm that this week I have seen not only my own forum flooded with extraordinary amounts of spam, but also other forums. My forum (OMG... dare I say it? :X3:) is still powered by...

'All good things come to those who...' , even if the wait takes a tiny 8 (!) years! :oops:. But the wait seems worth it... looks like a really nice implementation with the use of labels.

Aha, it has been hidden, as explained here and further here.

Yes, I have the same question. There used to be (in older XF versions) this option in [Search Threads and Posts] : [x] Search threads started by this member only But it seems to be gone?

Okay, thanks for confirming Slavik. I don't know if the broken combi of vB Forum en vB Blog could have caused database errors (if that's even possible) in the meantime. But at the moment -with the Blog disabled- at least the Forum seems to work fine.

Hello Chris, I am not up-to-date with the latest XF and XFMG releases, but does your advise still stand? In Q4 2018 I am planning to switch over from vBulletin 3.8.11 to Xenforo 2.x and I would like to know what I need to prepare for this. Do I understand it correctly that if I want to retain...

In the beginning of this year vBulletin Support upgraded (I as admin was not available) our vB 3.8.8 forum to vB 3.8.11, since that was the version that supported PHP 5.6, which our hostingprovider switched to. vB 3.8.8. did not support PHP 5.6 and our forum became inaccessible. After this...

The good old times... :cool:

I am a bit surprised/puzzled that this valuable social feature has not been offered yet after so many years. It is not a totally pointless feature at all ;)... I can't remember how other forum packages used to do this, but Facebook for example offers it like this: A birthday symbol next to...

In addition to my not so lean and mean (it's still a challenge :unsure:) reply above , here's a short one: YouTube (as another example of a social media platform) has a function called 'Watch later'. Simply click a button and you can quickly add any video to your Watch Later playlist. That...

@GameDevJon, By what you wrote I understand you are not coming from a situation where you need to migrate your existing forum platform to XenForo, but you are starting a fresh new platform. In that case, you could also give it a go by simply using the XF forum for your blogging needs. An...

Hello Jonathan, Concerning your questions about a CMS, Blog and portfolio: @whynot already answered question 1 and 2. In addition to these answers, here's some more in-depth info that was posted before on these subjects: 1: CMS This tidbit (but was posted 7 years ago in 2010 upon initial...
