    [Suggestion] Pingbacks/Trackbacks

    I know it's sort of a niche thing...but for fledgling forums, sharing content and linking to a blog (and hopefully getting some curious users back) can really bring in some traffic.

    Googlefight vB vs XF

    I did that Google Fight thing...I love how despite vBulletin having millions when xenForo has only thousands...it still shows xenForo as winning. It knows something....

    XenForo Beta6, very disappointed

    On the subject of xenForo beta 6 being disappointing.... I think it's important to keep in mind Kier/Mike are a two man team (not to discount Ashley of course, but speaking form a development standpoint.) They have to do everything from design, bug fixing, testing, customer support, the random...

    [Suggestion] Pingbacks/Trackbacks

    I have to admit I don't quite understand the intricacies of the pingback/trackback system.... But it would be neat to see something like this implemented in xenforo as it is in blog software (most notably wordpress) - ie. if a URL is mentioned in a post, it'll ping the wordpress blog if...

    California Case Update

    I'd submit something like this as a counter: "I, Kier Darby, who shall henceforth in these court documents be referred to as 'Darby the Barefoot, Destroyer of Muffins', should give credit to the astonishing software engineering talent of my partner, Mike Sullivan, who shall henceforth in these...

    Show us your XF

    Just converted this weekend. We're still getting things going again and set up...hopefully reaching a large, solid community in the future. I think xenForo is certainly a solid base to build on.

    [Tip] Use APC

    Mike/Kier, I'm a bit confused by this... I understand that the APC caching is automatically done on some level just by having APC installed on PHP. Is there any other configuration options (such as the one Floris posted the tip about in the first post) we need to add to take full advantage of...

    Barefooting

    I have, on good authority, found concrete evidence on how the dinosaurs went extinct. A Kierfoot descended from the heavens - attached to it was a giant cupcake, which, as it descended, blocked out the sun win a chocolatey explosion. Here's a museum exhibiting detailing this event...

    Import from IPB to xF

    I know this a longshot, but has anyone had any succesful imports from IPB 3.1 to xenForo using a roundabout method? Or is everyone holding out for the official importer? If it's easy enough to do, I might give it a shot. :) (Sorry this probably isn't the right forum...I'm bad at missing the...

    Bicycle suggestions

    Between those I'd probably go for the 4300 Disc. Disc brakes are nice, but they add some weight to the bike I think. Having regular rim brakes, I can attest that stopping in wet conditions is a bit of an adventure. My back brake probably needs to be adjusted, but they certainly don't sound...

    Bicycle suggestions

    I ride a Trek 7.3 FX (a hybrid) and it's been awesome. It doesn't have a front suspension like the ones you linked are. The front suspension adds to the cost of the bikes (you can get nicer components if you elect to go with a non-front suspension model at the same price point), and I don't...

    [Tweak] Allow $0.00 Cost User Upgrades

    Maybe implement something like coupon codes too that takes the discount to $0? I can see either coupon codes making an upgrade free as some sort of promotion, or just allowing free upgrades for a time being beneficial.

    Speed up your Board /caching

    There's also alternatives like APC, xcache etc. APC will probably be included in the PHP core when PHP 6 comes around, so that's what I've been using. I'd use something like APC if you just have a single VPS, and memcached if you're looking to setup some sort of load-balanced distributed solution.

    Implemented  RSS Import

    This would be nice to have. The new wordpress login integration plugin would be cool to use this also - blog posts automatically syndicated to an announcements forum. :)
