I look at values entered into some of the user fields to help filter out spam registrations. Can user fields (including custom user fields) be included in the email to help me to quickly determine if the registration is spam?

That did it, thanks for the help!

Is there a way to change the "What's new" tab to read something like "Front page" instead?

I'd love a version for XF2 as well. In fact, I've even gone so far as holding back from upgrading to XF2 before Christmas!

I originally used an Audentio theme, but switched to PixelExit. Both were excellent quality and great for end users. The Audentio theme was probably a bit more feature rich, but also more technically complex (due to the need for an add-on as well as the theme itself). I switched because the...

Hi, I've got a few questions about the add-on. 1) Can infinite scrolling be switched off? 2) Are there any other layout options apart from a masonry layout, i.e. can I display photos in a fixed-size grid with each photo cropped to be the same height? 3) If I purchase the add-on, can I buy the...

Can you switch on Quickload Smiley mode for all users, i.e. make it so they don't have to go into their preferences to enable it?

Is there any way to influence the responsive display order of the widgets on the portal page? On a mobile device, the left column widgets are displayed below the centre column widgets. Ideally, I'd like to display the left column first on smaller screens, followed by the centre column.

This is a really useful add-on, thanks. When I change the date/time on a post, it doesn't seem to update the Recent Activity entries. Is that not intended to be updated, or am I doing something wrong?

I've got a couple of small forums using XenPorta 2, and I find it really good for creating a home page. My first forum is Copenworld which is a niche car forum. I've also recently set up a new forum Talkzone NZ which I'm just establishing. You're welcome to take a look. One easy way to find...

I initially had success with stopping spammers from registering with this add-on, but now the same spammers have changed to signing up via a proxy. When I check the spammers ip address at whatismyipaddress.com, it shows as a "confirmed proxy server". Could this add-on also prevent...

You're welcome :) I don't do paid work, sorry - I'm not an expert, just a fellow forum owner! @Russ at Pixel Exit may be able to help you - they're awesome developers! I'm not sure if they work with other third-party add-ons like XenPorta though, you'd need to ask them if they could quote for...

You can install XenPorta alongside a Pixel Exit theme, so you shouldn't have to start again. I use the Pixel Exit Zipped theme, but it should work in the same way with the Core theme. XenPorta adds a home page where you can feature posts and add widgets (such as blocks of text). The home page...

If you're looking to create a portal page with widgets and featured threads, I'm using XenPorta with a Pixel Exit style, and they work well together.

I have some templates that won't merge automatically on my test forum with the latest version installed, so I guess I'll wait. I don't have a lot of time (nor the skills) to mess around with it manually. I'm looking at moving to UI.X (or perhaps another style) on my main forum as the updates...
