This Review is around two years old now. Lots have changed since then. Will any of the stuff they say is missing be added in Xenforo 1.2?

Even if Xenforo doesn't come with it it would be great as an addon for those who aren't comfortable using stuff un-related to Xenforo.I think the database stuff isn't really something that is needed in a forum software. There are much better and more dedicated tools like PHPMyAdmin or MySqlDumper for those kinds of functions.

SSH is better (when possible). phpMyAdmin isn't exactly a good way to do a restore (maybe OK on dumps though).I think it's more reliable to dump, import and prune databases directly with phpMyAdmin.
Imagine being active on a bunch of forums getting emails for lots of threads. They're all nicely placed in your inbox, instead of clicking the thread link, maybe logging in, clicking reply and typing, you could just hit reply and move on to the next one. I'd rather not use it because sometimes there's posts after and stuff but I get the request.Why would anyone need to post by email?
If you're on the computer or mobile and can access email, then why not go right to the forum?
IMHO, whilst the software review is good, the recommendations aren't the best. Product bloating is a well-known facet of forum software construction. CMS's seem not to be as picked at in this regard, as many are happy to simply download and install an add-on. Yet in forum software, people seem to want every little function as part of the core.
I get sick and tired of reading comments on add-ons that 'this should be core' type nonsense. That is the exact issue that bloats a product and stalls a development community.
For all Xenforo owners... would you want XF having 50+ queries like the competition? Just to perform a single pages functions? I know I don't. I would rather have a choice... which means add-ons and a supporting developer community.
Just my two cents.
You should ask this question the owner of the site via email, not here. Though it probably will be fruitless because the site appears to be pretty much abandoned since a year or so.Can't they re-review since it's been two years now and they still have Xenforo 1.1.2 listed as the latest version?
I think someone else is controlling that site.... I posted a few positive things about XenForo and they're gone. Had someone else post something as well.... Also, gone.Can't they re-review since it's been two years now and they still have Xenforo 1.1.2 listed as the latest version?
Also the 2013 poll results that put another development in a not so bright light... gone.I think someone else is controlling that site.... I posted a few positive things about XenForo and they're gone. Had someone else post something as well.... Also, gone.

As did everyone elseI guess you got socially censored
XenForo is the best.Online reviews nowadays are all nonsense... honestly, do you really believe most feedback people put upon their websites? I don't... because many write them themselves and post under made up names, or names of friends and such. Its all nonsense...
Xenforo is solid, and any user who has purchased a license and actually put it to work under user load would never say otherwise. Xenforo simply taking up some of the much needed anti-spam measures that only add-ons have otherwise covered prove they are dedicated to realistic out-of-the-box forum provider status.
