Technically this isn't so much a pre-sales question as it is a pre-install question since I bought a couple licences ages ago during the whole trial thing. Just want to get a clarification before investing time getting things started with xF. I have a group of domains that will sort of be...

Just a little side warning FYI ... I own some great domains with potential good keyword value. I've gotten some requests to buy as I have some with the standard cash parking / for sale page until I get time to develop them into real sites. Anyhow, one scam is that you'll get an email with a...

DD .. I know exactly how you feel! I shut my forum down a few years ago and was finally getting ready to relaunch last year (kinda regretting waiting this long to decide what forum software to use). I used to hack my old vB3 templates to shreds to come up with what I felt was a much cleaner...

In theory someone can change just about anything if they have direct access to the Forum's database. Including both user profile information and admin/activity logs and just about anything else! That being said .. I wouldn't really know why someone who managed to hack into your database would...

Comments within posts pretty much takes us back 15+ years when threaded forums were the standard (which I personally always hated)! HOWEVER ... I could see it being potentially beneficial IF: 1. There was a strict and small CHARACTER LIMIT. Used mainly to enhance a...

Sigh .. yeah .. I've been chomping on the bit for ages now before starting a few new web projects. XF certainly IS technically the best forum solution at the moment .. but it totally lacks a real mobile plan of any kind (aside from various 3rd party add-ons .. of which some look...

Facts: - In May global internet traffic through mobile devices reached 10% and climbing fast! - Most estimates say mobile internet access will actually surpass PC in 2-4 years! - The Xenforo crew have mentioned they've been working on a Mobile skin since last year! - Since January the Xen crew...

All we know about 1.2 is that it will include a mobile skin, improved spam management, major bug fixes, and "other unknown" heavily requested features. What those other features might be is unknown to all but Mike and Kier and I'm guessing a handful of pre-beta testers. Unless we actually get...

Maybe a contributing factor is that there are fewer question about where to find the resources since they are right there? ;) Also likely that some people are holding off on add-on development until there is more clarity on 1.2 and what it includes, so there is less "newer" content that tends...

I personally don't really care what other communities have to say about this .. lol .. the only question you need to ask for yourself is are you getting enough information and stable interaction for you to feel secure in your continued use of xF? If not than feel free to say your opinions ...

lol .. in all fairness .. it's not an entirely clear reply depending on the information someone might be looking for .. and more importantly .. it took a couple of months to get that answer and it currently resides on the 5th page of a closed discussion that has been pushed back to the 2nd page...

I've been lurking for a while now having initially bought my license in the initial pre-sale more as a show of support to an alternative to the nightmare that was vB (some of you might recall some of my longer rambles as DJ RRebel on the vB forums .. lol)! Not that vB was such a horrible product...

Well .. "professionalism" aside .. I think it's actually a clever idea now that you mention it! There actually might be a few people who do visit the smiley directory to see or even grab all available smileys .. those would likely only be power users with forums of their own looking to get the...

Huge congrats to the entire team! Also a huge thanks to everyone involved in creating some very crucial add-ons (both in terms of the actual add-on .. but also to show there will be many lateral options to expand upon xF)! I used to run a rather large website .. I slacked off on my side .. but...

Just took a first peak yesterday and I have to say I'm extremely impressed with the thought behind almost all details of XF! Some of you might know me as DJ RRebel on the vB forums and I have extremely vocal at how although I still love vB, it is falling FAR short of its potential. Not only...
