Thanks Lawrence. Do you by any chance know why the user group permission uses the term "Not set(No)" and the node permission uses the term "Revoke"? I think it means the same or am I missing something?

I know how permissions are accumulated over various user groups and that you can set specific permissions per user group in a forum node but I'm not sure if the permissions in the forum nodes are always accumulated with those of in the user group(s) on the global level? For example: assume I set...

Thanks to all you guys for the replies. At second thoughts, it makes sense. I also apologize for calling such a function "useless".

Till now no reply. I assume this is just a useless function in xenForo.

It is possible to merge various posts in a thread into one post. But to me it sounds a bit odd because these posts make up the discussion in a thread and wouldn't merging disturb the discussion? I understand the merging of various forum threads where the posts in the individual threads are kept...

When I'm in the "Forums" tab I choose for example "XenForo pre-sales questions" Next I can choose a "New posts" tab. When I do this I can see yet another "What's new" tab. So, what's the difference between "New posts" and "What's new". I think the "New posts" is post that is new to me (meaning...

OK, nice. Thanks Chris.

I wonder what the status message in your profile page is good for? I used a string such as "Howdi" and then I can see this on my member card. But why would people use this?

Can somebody please explain the phrase "the whole only people can PM you if you follow them setting"? Thanks

You are right. Sorry. Nosy me.

Thanks Brogan, for your quick reply (as always). Just curious, what is their average age?

I've read at http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1447085 that xenForo is just three developers. If this is true, then it's amazing if you look at what these guys have achieved.

If a thread holds messages that I haven't read yet, then the thread title is shown in bold in the thread list and there is an indication to "Go to the first unread post". There are quite some threads that I haven't even opened. So, these contain unread posts as well. I was wondering how this...

I understand the permissions in xenForo but I am a bit confused about the distinction between a primary and secondary user groups. In https://xenforo.com/help/user-groups/ I read "There is no distinction between primary and secondary user groups" but when you create users, you can specify "User...

Thanks guys. I'm not a forum-specialist, far from, but I cannot find a reason why a forum would allow guest posting. The idea behind a forum is giving people the ability to talk to each other. How in the world can a forum work properly when multiple people "talk" under the same name.
