    XF 2.3 Delete the search index before rebuilding?

    Quick question. The 'Delete the index before rebuilding' option you have when rebuilding the search index, how is it affected by the 'Content type' option you can select above? For example, if I select the first content type of 'Direct messages' and then select to 'delete the index', does that...

    XF 2.3 Curious issues with google indexing of 'Whatsnew Posts' page

    I noticed in our logs that google appears to be heavily and repeatedly trying to index a lot of XenForo URLs that lead to the exact same page. I can see where this is coming from, because when I manually navigate to click on the 'New posts' link, which is expressed by Xenforo on mouse-over as...

    XF 2.3 Can admins sort 'Current Visitors' list by IP address

    In order to check for abuse and unidentified bots, I often peak through the 'Current Visitors' (guests) pages to see whose online. But what would be really handy is if this list could be sorted / ordered by IP address, which would make it easier to spot multiple loads from a similar pool of IP...

    XF 2.3 Akismet server / API problems?

    Anybody getting lots of CURL errors due to the Akismet anti-spam service today? Like these (replaced my API key with [API KEY] below): I checked the Akismet API url above (https://[YOUR API KEY].rest.akismet.com/1.1/comment-check) and it's returning a 500 internal server error, but I'm...

    XF 2.3 Best filesystem cache and guest cast settings?

    So just a quick query. At present I have the original global caching setup enabled via Filesystem, which works well: $config['cache']['enabled'] = true; $config['cache']['provider'] = 'Filesystem'; $config['cache']['config'] = [ 'directory' => '/myfolder' ]; $config['cache']['sessions'] =...

    XF 2.3 Change in Google's Ad Policy and XenForo

    The Ad position in HTML head plugin seemed to do the job nicely. Now I just need to figure out what templates of relevance may have changed or been removed between 2.2 and 2.3 in order to exclude them.

    Ad position in HTML head

    Does this work on Xenforo 2.3? Also, is there anyway to change the position in the <head> for where it outputs, as some of my calls need to be in a specific order.

    XF 2.3 Change in Google's Ad Policy and XenForo

    That looks good, thanks Chromaniac.

    XF 2.3 Change in Google's Ad Policy and XenForo

    Yes but how does that actually work to stop the ads, as it has no impact when the main ads call is in PAGE_CONTAINER as XenForo doesn't know which call is for ads in the first place. So should the call be in a different template for this to work?

    XF 2.3 Change in Google's Ad Policy and XenForo

    This month has seen Google clarify to users of their Ads platform(s) that "ads are prohibited on screens where the primary focus is a private communication like direct messages, live chats, video-chats and private chatrooms". Now with XenForo this seems to conflict with the way that...

    When do you normally upgrade after a major point release (eg. 2.3)?

    I usually start my test environment upgrades with the major point release - correcting / re-doing templates etc. - and, if that goes well, then I may upgrade the live site with that main release or await the first update before doing so (2.3.1). Lots of bugs usually get picked up at the point...

    Duplicate Upgrade to 2.3 Failed with blank screen

    Is this not a bug report in the bug report section already?

    Duplicate Upgrade to 2.3 Failed with blank screen

    So it seems to me like the upgrade process, on the first try, didn't get far enough to replace that file and then executed something with the cache that was meant for a newer version of the file, but before that file had been introduced by the upgrade process. The solution was to disable cache...

    Duplicate Upgrade to 2.3 Failed with blank screen

    No, disabled those already. Upgrade process now running after disabling cache.

    Duplicate Upgrade to 2.3 Failed with blank screen

    If I disable cache in the config file then I can bypass the bug, but obviously I'm curious as to why it's occurring. I wonder if the upgrade process didn't replace the file, since it still looks like the old version to me.
