I read alot about it on VB seem to be the same story thats why i came back here
Vb4.1.2 just pissed me off to much i guess the "email" thing was the last bit i could take Sigh
Exactly. Just finished reading that article myself. I am at the point now that I am selling my vb4 suite and picking up another license of xenforo. I had a customer that wanted to run a site on vb but they are reconsidering. If it all goes well, that will be three licenses for me. The 4.1.2 release for me was the last straw. Heck Floris and gang reverted my vb4 mistake back to vb3 and my members began returning in numbers. They seem to like the xenforo format so soon they will be using that.
Short answer: Yes.Is it really that much better?
Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!
Well i bought it Thanks for all the info people <3
Welcome aboard, enjoy the ride
Thank youWelcome to the family
So perhaps some kind souls can answer specific questions for me:
1. I see a lot of posts here that suggest if you are a developer, then switching to xenforo from vb is a no-brainer. How about knowledgable, non-developer, administrators?
2. How easy is it to build a simple template?
3. Is there a gallery of xenforo forums out there? (I would love to see examples of other looks, particularly using sidebars with other blocks such as RSS feeds, ad boxes, etc.).
4. In the stock conversion from vB, are all users and their usergroup (Administrators, Moderators, Registered Users, Banned Users, etc) converted correctly?
5. Also in the conversion, are the vB URLs for messages maintained? (This is particularly important for links, from Google, other sites, etc., to continue to work)?
6. Does xenforo do a good job of keeping spam off the board? Does it provide an easy, single-click, method of getting rid of the spammers who manage to get through and all their droppings?
7. Are there some admin user controls like max number of posts per day?
Thanks . . .
You can add the xen:sidebar to the forum_view and thread_view templates if you wish.Are two-column displays on these pages not (yet) possible?
