    Why should I buy this?

    I choose Xenforo because at the time I was looking for something with a responsive design, I’ve always been a fan of Bootstraps responsive design because it allowed you to build your site one way and be displayed on a wide range of devices. I couldn’t stand going to a vb forum and having to zoom...

    XF 2.2 Xenforo Install - Clean

    what worked best for me was installing a control panel on my dedicated server. From there it’s as simple as any other hosting provider. I’ve used cloudpanel in the past because it’s lightweight but moved away because I wanted an email client, I’ve recently started using ISPConfig

    XF 2.2 Where to begin/beginners guide...

    Rather rude comment, there was helpful resources given to the user? Just because no one offered to build the user a custom forum doesn’t mean no one was helpful. In post 5 I wrote a paragraph about how they could do it themself and one sentence saying there are good developers here to help as...

    XF 2.2 Where to begin/beginners guide...

    I know how to set up Xenforo forums in my sleep but I don’t know exactly what a torrent is or even a plex server. Looking at AVSFourm, it’s very custom you see Xenforo core items but also a lot of stuff that’s custom developed. Don’t let you discourage its 100% possible for someone like you to...

    Interested in purchasing creating & running a message board, don't know where to start-

    @Davyc @whynot @TPerry You guys are missing the main point of what this user is saying and only further complicating things for a user that probably doesn’t even know what you guys are talking about.

    I would definitely consult @Paul B or really any other members of the staff/ sales team, but based on your tech experience you might be best with Xenforo’s cloud service. That’s not to say it’s hard to get a forum up. With Xenforo’s cloud service they essentially take care of set up and the...

    Pros and Cons of Dedicated Server vs Cloud VPC ?

    I did find when I scaled up my cloud hosting to what my dedicated server specs were gunna be it was way cheaper to go the dedicated route. 2 TB hard drive 3.7 GHz Intel Xeon 32 Gb ram 100mb/s bandwidth For $32 a month, if I scaled my digital ocean to specs like this I was looking at 80$ if...

    XF2.3 feedback and comments

    There seems to be an issue with the responsive nav bar on the main xenforo page. From a phone in portrait the nav bar doesnt show up at all. I imagine on a tablet users won't be effected, I noticed this morning that the nav bar was missing as I usually go to the main page then to the community...

    Xenforo moving from namecheap shared to digital ocean, aws or?

    I just found with all these cheap VPS company you have an extremely hard time with SMTP. As mentioned before it’s not the mail being sent out as I ran a few test and mail will leave my end but it never get to the destination. I only recommended a Dedi because it gives me all the options a DO...

    Xenforo moving from namecheap shared to digital ocean, aws or?

    Im using OneProvider which I believe I read is just a reseller of OVH, Not 32 USD…32 CAD you’d be sitting at like 26 USD. I’m using an Advanced Series Xeon E3-1245 v2 which provides way more then enough resources for Xenforo and my control panel with plenty of room to scale Amsterdam Frankfurt

    Xenforo moving from namecheap shared to digital ocean, aws or?

    I’ve ran into problems with my digital ocean droplets being blocked by most email providers as there’s a high turn over rate with DO. Often bad actors using their service for spam stuff. You might end up with a black listed IP address and this would only further your email issue you’re having...

    Anyone else getting tons of messages from their hosting provider always pressuring to upsell hosting plans…?

    My wife is using Hostpapa as well for her Wordpress site and is constantly getting messages about throttling resources even though her site isn’t even live yet. Just from web crawlers mostly. I offered to host her site on my dedicated server but it’s to complicated for her to get on board. My...
