Foroverse for XenForo 1.2.5
- Thread starter Foroverse
- Start date
Which threads? I'll check.
The 1.2.3 is my mistake. I uploaded the wrong file to the server.
There is only one forum connected, this one:
Breakfastroom (chat and relax...)
General chat: music, humour & interesting things.
cafesaxophone.com
So you cannot see some of the ones near the top: Watches, Do you read books, Whats Cooking, Mike's Musings among others. As it is only one forum, I would expect the feed to be the same.
I didn’t know about that tab. So yes they show with that tab, but all those threads have new posts so shouldn’t they show under latest tab?
Will people know they have to use that tab or can I make it default as I think it’s best if everyone sees the new posts.
Latest = new threads
Active = new posts inside the threads
We've been thinking of making the active tab the default one though.
I really hope you do, I think it’s crucial to show people new posts. I wouldn’t have known to change the tab.
Honestly, there isn't much difference between them nowadays, except the development nightmare maintaining dedicated apps to suit the vast array of phone OS versions. You have push notifications on PWA... just my opinion though.Worth noting there is already a PWA available.
But yes, our next steps are indeed dedicated phone apps.
Your project looks interesting. I see you did forum software too. Vibe coded? It looks nice.
I understand your point. Dedicated apps are on the back burner right now, and we may re-evaluate as time goes on.
Thanks! And no, forum software is XenForo, with a custom integration, which will be improved as time goes on.
Interesting... looks good. Well done.
Our main focus for the native apps is discovery through the app stores. We think that would boost our traffic and thus traffic for every community joined in our platform. We also realize they are development nightmares. Especially Apple.
But the potential traffic increase makes it worthwhile in my opinion.And as Matt said, the forum software is XenForo. We’ve chosen XF simply because we know the ins and outs for years and thought it would be the perfect fit for the custom integration between the main site and a place to discuss and share news on about Foroverse.
Appreciate the feedback!
Thanks. Will dive into it!
Does the board URL in your Admin CP options match the live address? Such as *.xenforo.cloud if you're using a custom domain now.
I'm confused. I'm using a custom domain. The original xenforo domain redirects to the custom domain. Nothing in the options shows the xenforo provided domain names.
I'm just confirming you which domain you are using. I'll need your forum URL to investigate further, so I'll go ahead start a conversation.
Just so I understand this, I can set it so only an expert of the first post is sent to you guys, no full content, no replies, just the excerpt.
It would however still list how many replies had been posted (even if the text was never sent?)
And clicking the thread, would go directly to my site?

That is correct. An example like that is here: https://foroverse.com/c/the-fighting-cock-tottenham-hotspur-spurs-forum
It seems the full post is there but with a show more link that reveals the full post.

The excerpt is up to 500 words by default, so on short posts it's the whole post, and "Show more" expands it. Set Preview length to 250 for a shorter excerpt. Show the full first post is off by default, and while it's off the full post is never sent. Reply counts are always shown, and the thread link goes to your forum.
