    UI.X

    I'm running UI.X Dark and UI.X Light, and I'm having a minor styling issue with the Dark style only. When the Admin navbar at the top is "floating", the Reports number is all the way to the far right of the screen (see the red arrow): When I scroll down and the navbar sticks to the top of...

    XenWord Pro [Deleted]

    No problem at all on the first part, but manually aligning all the commenters is nigh impossible. There are just too many users who fall into that category--I'm talking well in excess of 1,000. What are the the implications of not manually aligning accounts that have commented to blogs...

    XF 1.5 Post attachments always show when URL known

    Thanks, Chris. Ideally the thumbnails would not be accessible and protected by permissions, but you made a couple of good points.

    XF 1.5 Post attachments always show when URL known

    I didn't want to post this in bugs until I get a confirmation that it's not a settings issue. I run a health and fitness site, and some members are very sensitive about their progress pictures. As such, I have some private forums that only a small group of users can access. Unfortunately I just...

    XenWord Pro [Deleted]

    Hi, I just purchased xenword (lifetime license). As I was reading the installation instructions, my heart sank when I saw the bit about manually aligning user IDs between the databases. I have 30,000 forum members, and a couple thousand of those members are in the WP database. I was using...

    UI.X

    I'm very happy with UI.X Light and UI.X Dark, but I don't care for the way the user banners look: I'd rather them look like the xF default: How can I accomplish this, please?

    Implementing permissions across multiple user groups

    Ah, perfect. Not sure how I overlooked that. Thank you!

    Implementing permissions across multiple user groups

    I just did a import of a vB installation into xF, and that included about 30,000 members. After reading this excellent guide, I've got to make some changes. Many users have what should be (under xF) a secondary group as their primary group. For example, I have about 1,000 imported users with a...

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    I'm all set now, fully licensed. Thanks again for all the help. Liam, I think they were able to catch it in time, as the money never came out and PayPal shows the transaction as "Cancelled". Thanks for the caution, though!

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    I just looked at the PayPal transaction and it seems that it went through as an e-check for some reason (the default is supposed to be my company debit card). I think that can take a few days to clear. Any chance I can be manually approved so I can get started? Or, if not, can the payment be...

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    I successfully paid for my XF license and Media add-on via PayPal, but it's still showing that I don't have a licensed product. How long does this process take? I was hoping to get started on this project this morning.

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    Thanks for the help, folks, I purchased my Xen license this morning (waiting for it to show under my account). I didn't mean to step over the pre-sale help line. :) I set up a test CentOS server w/ Centminmod and got my biggest Wordpress site (mostly) working. I also converted the existing WP...

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    Thanks, Tracy. That's an intriguing idea, and CentMin looks awesome. My well-established existing WP site, my other web sites and my forums are all running on Debian with iptables, apache and mysql. I'm concerned that I'm going to have to spend a ton of time manually migrating everything over to...

    Moving from vB to xen // VM sever setup

    Yes, self-managing. 1) I'm fairly new to VM. I thought that the split database/web server performance improvements might offset any VM overhead. 2) Mostly administrative. I also like being able to set up test/development servers on the same physical box. 3) Apache is what I know, but I'll...
