    Chat 2 by Siropu [Paid]

    Same! I've tested it in multiple browsers. Works in Firefox, but in others browsers, I experience this. I filed a support ticket on Siropu's site. Hope to get it fixed. It kind of breaks the flow of chat, as is. This was addressed in one of the patch explanations. Your users' permissions need...

    XF 2.1 Finding Older Posts

    Ah, of course... I don't understand the logic behind paywalling basic search functionality like inverting the date of the results. And then discouraging me from getting it. "Most shared hosting operators will not have this installed and thus XenForo Enhanced Search will not be usable."

    XF 2.1 Finding Older Posts

    Mine doesn't have that option. What am I missing...?

    XF 2.1 Finding Older Posts

    I have a very old forum that I upgraded to Xenforo last year. One feature I'm sorely missing is an easy way to find older posts. For example, I have posts going back to 2001. if I wanted to find those, I'd have to go to my profile then manually navigate 10 pages back at a time to find the...

    XF 2.1 What's New change: Swapping OP avatar for latest post avatar

    Bumping. Can anyone point me in the right direction for what to change, and where to change it? Appreciated!

    XF 2.1 What's New change: Swapping OP avatar for latest post avatar

    In the What's New section, the first avatar you see on the left side is that of the original thread poster. However, that distinction becomes irrelevant over time (particularly for ancient threads), since what people really want to know when checking the What's New section is who the last person...

    XF 2.1 Style Coloring: Searching for 2 areas, can't find

    Nevermind, figured it out on my own. 1) This is in Styles / Member Profiles 2) I just changed it to a black background and light text, so I never had to modify the link color. Not optimal, but works.

    XF 2.1 Style Coloring: Searching for 2 areas, can't find

    Hello and thanks in advance! I really have tried to trial-and-error my way around this, but have repeatedly failed. Any help or pointers would be appreciated: I am developing a dark theme, but in doing so I am running into some readability issues with some of the standard text. I cannot find...

    Recent Posts 2 by Siropu [Paid]

    Hello! Wondering if this only works as a widget, or if there's a way to have it replace the What's New function. The reason I ask is that I'm looking for a mod that can show all Recent Posts including their post excerpts (like yours seems to do). The default What's New only shows thread titles...

    [OzzModz] What's New Tweak

    Awesome! I basically live in the What's New section, but still feel like it's lacking one feature: Would it be possible to add an optional view for New Posts so that the contents of each new post (not just thread title and user) are also displayed? I've searched but found no similar option.

    Issues Migrating from an ANCIENT SMF forum?

    Hmm, all I did was this: Installed fresh XF 1.5. Imported SMF 2.0.13 db. Upgraded to 2.1.

    XF 2.1 How to Change Date and Time Styling

    Hello! I'm very new to Xenforo, but I have plenty of history modifying other similar boards. I know just enough to get myself into trouble. I'm looking for where in the templates for xf2.1 that I can modify how the date/time are displayed. By default it shows just the date as April 4, 2019 and...

    Issues Migrating from an ANCIENT SMF forum?

    Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here. The DB import and 2.1 upgrade went perfectly. No issues. Loving Xenforo 2.1 now. Still learning how to fine-tune it to my community's specifications though.

    Aha, I didn't know that. Thanks, that will save me some time.

    Issues Migrating from an ANCIENT SMF forum?

    My forum is close to 20 years old. It predates SMF, all the way back to YaBB. Should I anticipate any issues importing/converting the db to be friendly with Xenforo? Really love what I've seen, and would LOVE to make the leap, if it's feasible without breaking my large, ancient community...
