Yep, if they're going back and editing older posts, I'd remove editing (beyond a grace period for post corrections) from the standard usergroups. I had a spate of long term spammers who were happy to build up a semi-normal looking account over many months using obviously human spammers to...

I probably missed the bit about Mike stepping down if it had been posted before Kier's announcement above (I'm not a regular here) - just wanted to wish him well. As a long term customer still on 1.5, the slower the development the better, because updating is going to be painful :cool:

These get sent out periodically. If you search there's a few threads about it, eg. when it last happened to me: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/facebook-action-is-required-app-deletion-if-not-replied-within-a-week.202265/#post-1558839

Not in my case - I sell adverts direct to companies in my niche - so they are all related to my niche. I've managed to avoid generic adverts or in-post monetisation so far. @Max Taxable apologies - it was the lack of an emoji or some other clue it was a joke, I thought you were being serious...

Thanks @Anatoliy I saw that but didn't understand a word of it. I'll ask my server guy to take a look. It still keeps the bloat mind you, just in a different place. As for old content and organic traffic, yes I do find it quite funny that all my top performing threads on Google have nothing to...

What an unhelpful reply. Not sure why you even bothered to be honest.

What are people's thoughts on trying to reduce forum bloat? As the owner of a mature (>20 years, nearly 500k posts) forum, I can't help but wonder whether nearly 30GB and 50,000 attachments of old content is serving a useful purpose. It's also becoming a pain point in terms of hosting costs. Do...

Is this Nimbus? I've had the same, less than 2 months notice to upgrade or leave. Awful service. Their lowest new package is £30+ a month and I am sure there's faster and cheaper out there.

Allowing this can cause carnage when members "rage quit" and remove older content. It can ruin threads and be very disruptive. You already know this however, from your post above. I think it's better approached as a limited edit time (I allow 1 hour) which effectively allows deletion by...

It does, but a fair few people who deride the idea have not actually tried it :)

Yes, I did about three years ago and absolutely nothing bad happened at all. Previously, significant numbers of confirmation emails were ending up in spam or being bounced back. It made registering almost impossible for some people. You're still asked for an email when you register and the...

Thank you.

A couple of questions about this addon please :) 1. How does it work with Elementor Pro? 2. Considering I use Elementor for my Wordpress content, where is the styling done for the comments? 3. Does it matter that my WP site and XF forum are completely different domains/servers? 4. Is it...

I had similar from FB last month. I tried to reply to their email with the info they wanted only for it to bounce back. I looked online and there is no way of contacting them!! It turns out as my registered Facebook email is a forward (and not a mailbox I can send from) emails from any other...

I think there's some scope for an admin-related forum, I'm unsure why there aren't more. I was a former long term user of TAZ but asked for my account to be deleted because I got fed up with a user hawking their own agenda on almost every thread. Also I'm a forum admin with 20+ years experience...
