    Site hijacked

    I should have mentioned "root" is "public_html", not server root. The host is Host Gator shared hosting on Linux.

    Site hijacked

    Hi all, Earlier this month my site was hijacked. It appears somebody dropped a .ftpquota file and default.html file into the root directory, which of course made it so that a links landing page that they developed appeared instead of my site. Deleting those two fixed it, but I'm wondering how...

    Where do I change the color for this bar?

    That's the good and bad about XF. It's modular so that templates are pretty intuitively named, and if you want to make a change you can go right to that template rather than reading through thousands of lines of code, but it also means that customizations are in multiple files. But most of that...

    Where do I change the color for this bar?

    Have you tried looking at various themes/styles that others have made, to find one that's to your liking? It's very much worth the $20-$30 that most charge for a good style.

    XF 1.5 How to create a new tab?

    For that positioning, you can either add it after the members tab or extra tabs: end section. I usually choose the latter: <!-- extra tabs: end --> <xen:if is="{$extraTabs.end}"> <xen:foreach loop="$extraTabs.end" key="$extraTabId" value="$extraTab"> ...nested tags and stuff...

    Where do I change the color for this bar?

    That's often the best way to learn :) Just remember to copy/paste the entire original contents of any template you start playing with, into another text editor like Atom.io, Sublime Text (my personal favorite), Notepad++, or even just Notepad. You always want to be able to revert back if you...

    XF 1.5 Make a post sticky over ALL forums and nodes?

    It all depends on how much traffic a site gets. With the usual traffic on a forum serving less than 20-50 members, most shared web hosts won't have an issue serving whatever is being requested. Add a couple hundred users to that (or more), and small issues that increase a slight performance...

    Where do I change the color for this bar?

    The file is action_filter_row.css, which you can find by doing this: Open your Admin Panel Click Appearance Click Search Templates (sidebar) For the style, choose "Default Style" Enter actionFilterRow as the search term in "Template Contains" Press Search Knowing this process will help you...

    XF 1.5 Make a post sticky over ALL forums and nodes?

    That depends on which addons you have, how many database calls they're making (and how frequently), what kind of information is being returned, and the performance capacity of your web server. You can do a quick and easy performance test using https://tools.pingdom.com/ which is free. Then you...

    XF 1.5 How To: Set Boolean and Reference Later in Template

    Hi all, I'm using an add-on called TaigaChat Pro which I have heavily modified. The only part I can't seem to get working (and the author hasn't replied to my request in the product forum) is a moderation tool for each li that has content. The technical issue is that I want to move part of the...

    TaigaChat Pro - Realtime chat/shoutbox [Deleted]

    @Luke F or anybody else in-the-know, can I get a quick minute of your time for https://xenforo.com/community/threads/taigachat-pro-realtime-chat-shoutbox-paid.40821/page-141#post-1116656 above? Still can't seem to figure out why the message moderation tools force display:none when nested inside...

    @AndyB Thanks for the 5.7 update! Always thought the avatars on the sidebar were out of place, so the date fits right in. And with some CSS, made mine look like: Very slick :)

    TaigaChat Pro - Realtime chat/shoutbox [Deleted]

    Hey, I had the same issue (mainly because I haven't filled my forum with data/information yet). Ultimately, Google should be able to know what to put for the description based on your site structure (h3 tags, bold titles, etc), and then fill the description appropriately. However if that is not...

    TaigaChat Pro - Realtime chat/shoutbox [Deleted]

    @Luke F I have a bizarre issue with the popup div that lets you moderate chat messages. I have re-styled TaigaChat to look like: But as you can see, my popup arrow is not displaying. It's to the right of the username, and is there in the DOM, but it's display:none which means that...
