    XF 2.2 Settings to keep Imgur attachments forever

    Anyone interested in this topic may find this other thread on topic interesting. https://xenforo.com/community/threads/proxied-imgur-images-stopped-working-today.214109/ Note that as of tonight, many many images seem to be 'gone' from much of the Internet but can still be pulled down via at...

    XF 2.2 Proxied imgur images stopped working today

    From our rack at our data center, pulling images was blocked, but likely not from their current mass kill. I suspect our entire (shared) data center was previously firewalled -- thousands of IPs. Today we started pulling down onto a $10/month AWS virtual machine (U.S. East Coast). We ran a PHP...

    Bot hacking targeting xenforo and others

    In our case, all signups, password changes, etc. are done through main web sites (that the forums are a part of) which controls XF for us. It doesn't look like our Ukraine friends have tried to change any of the passwords yet (which would require manually going to the main site...). For our...

    Bot hacking targeting xenforo and others

    We run very different forum systems (1 large, and 1 very small niche one) and both have been visited by this bot since at least as far back as Jan 2. 2 POSTs to add-reply, 19 to login, and 670 GETS. Timing between gets, or even between GET login and then POST (<= 1 second) shows nothing good...

    Ignore Content [Paid]

    I notice in this discussion that the lots of people (2018 through present at least) aren't getting email from this developer. That happened to me too this morning when I went to buy this addon and had to sign up on his site. The problem appears to be that his site is sending email claiming to...

    Add option to disable "Full Image" when inserting attachments

    That's why I think it would be nice to have an option to convert-to-thumbnail-upon-save.

    Add option to disable "Full Image" when inserting attachments

    I'd love to see this option implemented. We too allow large images to be uploaded. We would love them to appear as thumbnails, regardless of whether someone hits the image links and uploads it or pastes directly into the message. AndyB's addon btw just disables the button to insert a full...

    Option to convert PNG to JPG on upload (because of phone uploads and Chrome copy/paste)

    Thanks. I have his addons, but they don't seem to solve this problem. They allow one to convert an image manually. What I'm looking for is something that converts all PNGs (attached or pasted in the editor), automatically, at time of message save. If you agree, please upvote (click up arrow...

    Option to convert PNG to JPG on upload (because of phone uploads and Chrome copy/paste)

    I'd really love an option to automatically convert PNG to JPG on upload. A lot of our users, instead of using the image button on the edit bar and uploading a file, are clicking on a file, loading it in Chrome or IE, etc, clicking <right-click>,<copy> in the browser on Windows for example...

    Redis Cache By Xon

    Ug... my fat fingers typed that re php-redit, that it 'didn't' seem to suggest it might still help performance. I meant did. I assumed the native code should be more performant... It just wasn't clear to me that the add-on would use the native code since it wasn't required. I'm reading from...

    Redis Cache By Xon

    Centos 7 and Redis 6 and XF ... in short, they do seem to work well together. I've never used Redis until today before but as we are migrating to Xenforo from vBulletin 3.x, it seemed like a good time to do so. I thought I'd mention that I got Redis 6 up and running today with XF (and this...

    Poll permissions [Paid]

    It's amazing after all these years, that poll posting permissions still aren't built into Xenforo by default.

    XF 2.1 Import Failed with 2 Errors

    This week I was testing a command line import and for no fault of its own (disk full), it crashed. I fixed the problem and ran the importer again, and it continued where it left off, but immediately had the same error. In the target DB, I deleted the post # it identified as duplicate. Then I...

    [OzzModz] Highlight Sticky Threads

    I love this add-on. I run 2 systems that have been on vBulletin 3.x forever. Once migrated to XF just about a month ago, and the other is coming over this week. This add-on really helps, and matches our uses existing expectations. Now it did look horrible on dark themes, but it was an...
