Just tried this, if I enable "delete own thread", the user can delete threads even when it has other users messages. I want the user to only be able to delete his thread if the thread only has HIS messages.

But if I enable "delete own thread" permission, won't those users be able to delete threads that have other user's messages in them?

It is possible for users to delete their own posts if the necessary permission is set. I have it set in my forum. But why isn't it possible for users to delete a thread that contains ONLY their posts? Is there a way, a setting, or an addon that will allow users to do this?

I wouldn't go as far as having fake users online. But I have set the duration of people appearing online to 60 minues in the forum settings, which is the maximum. I think a forum with many users appearing online will be more appealing, and people are more likely to become a member, because in a...

My forum is new. Sometimes there are 10 users online, 7 of them have elected to be hidden. So people see 3 users online. And if you see a technical forum with just 3 users online, would you bother asking a question?

I want to respect the user's decision to not show up in the list. But I want people to know that there are X number of hidden users. People increasingly choose to remain invisible, and without showing that there are X number of hidden users, the forum looks like a no man's land.

Currently my sidebar shows the number of robots, number of members, and number of guest, and the overall total. I also want to show the number of hidden users (the ones that unchecked "show your online status"). Is there a setting or an addon for this?

Yep this feature would be useful to me as well. My forum is new and when I look at the number of visitors, it's for example 60. But when I go through the list of IP's, most of them are VPS'es or dedicates servers crawling out information. Only 3 of them are REAL visitors :) I recognize the IP...

Hmm OK, I see now ... I was trying to attach the RESOURCE FILE itself as an attachment to the description. I guess the right way is to choose the correct resource first, and at that point, keep adding files. And this works. Oh well, sorry for the noise :(

With my limited (read: almost non-existent) PHP knowledge (I'm a C/C++ guy), I have sniffed around the source code and made the following change in ResourceUpdate.php:getConstraints() Change this: $constraints['extensions'] = ['jpg', 'jpeg', 'jpe', 'png', 'gif']; to this...

Having same problem with XFRM version 2.1.1. The list in the allowed extensions includes PDF, but I can't upload PDF's. When I press attach files button, the list of allowed extensions is fixed to jpg, jpeg, jpe, gif, png. No matter what I enter in the resource manager configuration, the file...

And also, this image IS displayed correctly in my own forum when I insert it as an tag. It only doesn't work when I try to attach it.

Hmm weird, I saw the image when I was in the editor. But after saving it, the image appears as a broken link. Here is the link to the image: http://mekatronik.org/forum/images/precision_voltage_reference/10Vref.png

I have a very small image file that cannot be attached to a message. It fails with "The uploaded file was not an image as expected." I am now inserting it as a picture here:

Thanks for the info. Here is how the finally working rule looks like: RewriteRule ^index\.php/topic,([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+)\.html$ http://mekatronik.org/forum/threads/$1 [R=301,L,QSD] It is pretty much exactly what MySiteGuy has written, except the path had to exclude ^forum, which is the forum...
