Thank you

I am trying to create a development site so I can play around with the themes/visual aspects of my website but I can't access the admin section of the dev site. I have copied the site directory to a new folder and dumped the database to a separate database (and updated the config.php file to...

Thanks, that and the routefilters for the forum subcategories is exactly what I was looking for. Have a good night.

Sweet it looks like you can remove the /pages/ directory using route filters function as long as the page name is unique and doesn't overlap. Find: pages/long-unique-url-here/, replace: long-unique-url-here/

Thanks I'm reading about the route filters right now. Right now I currently use Wordpress CMS & front end & Xenforo for a forum but I am converting the entire site to Xenforo. There are several old URL's which have strong search engine placements and I don't want to hurt the ranking of those...

I am creating a new page in the node admin display and when I enter the "URL Portion" for the page it gets added to a subdirectory /pages/ on the site. Is there a way that I can make all URL portions link directly from my main domain rather than the pages subdirectory? I want to use...

Hey guys, I'm trying to transfer my website to a new server and I already transferred the files and databases to my knowledge but for some reason all of the images and content are missing on the new server. When I browse the new server the content is "there" it's more like it's just not linking...

I noticed that the majority of the spam posts are in a subcategory/subforum of the General category. If I delete the sub-forum will it remove all of the posts within that subcategory?

I just restored the oldest backup I had which was from March 29 but this was still after spammers flooded the forum. I don't understand what changed on my site though. I didn't have any spam posts for months even when xenutilities showed registrations being blocked and then suddenly they just...

What about deleting/recreating the table entirely and then just importing the xf_user section back into the table? I apologize for my inexperience and lack of knowledge on this subject I'm just wondering what the easiest way is to get a clean slate on the forums. There are literally over 70,000...

Question about this code: UPDATE xf_post SET message_state = 'deleted' WHERE message_state = 'visible' AND user_id BETWEEN 2 and 10; INSERT INTO xf_deletion_log (content_type, content_id, delete_date, delete_user_id, delete_username, delete_reason) SELECT 'post', post_id, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), 1...

I run that query from phpMyAdmin? I would be most interested in mass deleting all posts from a range of users. Until I get things figured out, is there a way to prevent all users from posting anything until I clean the forum up?

The spammers have thousands of posts... Yes I'm on shared hosting, bluehost.com Assuming the limitation is my hosting, is there any way to still clean up my forum or erase the spam? Also, what steps should I take to ensure that spammers don't register so easily and ruin my forum like this...

I have pages of this error: Mysqli statement execute error : Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction41 minutes ago - library/Zend/Db/Statement/Mysqli.php:214 and one of these: Mysqli statement execute error : Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting...

I left my forum unmanaged for a long time and it's now been over run with spam and spam accounts. I had Xenutilities installed as an addon to prevent spammers from registering and for months I never had an issue. It's just been over the past month or so that it's been completely overrun. I...
