Yes, I've been saying this for years. The old school 1990s forum look puts off anyone born in the last 30 years but you have the same old farts saying how awesome it is and nothing ever needs to change. It's both sad and depressing.

Keeping the layout unchanged for over a quarter of a century is admitting that it cannot be improved, which is ludicrous. Navigation is clunky, layout is boring and uninspired. Don't get me started on functionality. It can be improved and should be improved to be more intuitive and easy to...

I know what it doesn't look like, and that's the same tired old layout from the 20th century. Something needs to change. People under 30 have almost zero interest in websites with a traditional forum layout. Forums are for old farts, and I say this as someone with a 21 year old forum and has...

Some of my users are reporting a similar issue. This is how one of them describes it:: Apparently this has just started happening recently.

No, just one style.

I have a widget that I used to update the content of manually. It was just markup code and text. But at some point it stopped displaying my updates. The content of the widget was frozen in time. I ended up removing all the content of the widget but even then it kept displaying the same frozen...

Please, a proper block/ignore function that allows users to customise what people and content they want to see. Please, please, please, please, please. It's 2024. Do this for the sake of all the over sensitive people who need safe spaces and who suffer constant imaginary microaggressions... and...

I'd give anything to have the good old days of 2005-2010 back. Back before Panda and/or Penguin kicked forums to the SEO kerb.

I've been with Knownhost since 2016 and I stay because of their great support, which almost always replies within 5 minutes and solves issues quickly. I can find a better deal elsewhere when it comes to price but I stay because the support is so good.

Still getting errors. I have had to disable the plugin entirely. I need to rollback to 2.9. Is there a download link? Server error log ErrorException: Template error: [E_USER_WARNING] Cannot call method dataSetCurrentEntityTemplate on a non-object (NULL)...

Getting an error upgrading to 3.0 from 2.9. Exception: xf_cleantalk_sfw_logs: source already exists in table, but cannot change length

Some may not use such a feature, but it's really just a better, more comprehensive version of an existing feature that hasn't been updated in 25 years. The existing "ignore" feature is hopeless. Almost everything has been improved at some stage except for this sad old relic from the 20th...

Some might, but the lack of this functionality is creating huge problems in my community. I don't think I'm alone. This is 2024, the level of sensitivity is at all all time high. People don't want to see any content from some users and don't want their content to be seen by them. Other social...

I vote for a proper block functionality in the core software. It's about 10 years overdue.

I've asked for this functionality numerous times but the developers aren't interested in it. This is 2024. People are now about 100x more sensitive than they were 20 years ago. Some forum members want to make certain other users just disappear and that means all trace of them. This is probably...
