    XF2 [8WR] XenCarta 2 (Wiki) PRO [Paid]

    Is there any way to disallow creating HTML pages? I created a basic page and put <script>alert("test")</script> in it and it worked. I don't want to allow HTML to be an option when a user creates a page on the frontend Edit: I figured it out. Go to Add-ons > click on the gear icon for the...

    XF 2.2 Set a Page as home page

    Hello, I am somewhat confused on how I can have a page on my site (https://plex.us.org/pages/home) without the "/pages/home". For example if someone were to visit https://plex.us.org, it would say "Oops! This page could not be found". I use Caddy as my webserver and the configuration is below...

    Not installing an admin panel doesn't automatically make you a target for hacking... That's illogical and not backed up with any sort of facts. I'm not saying to write anything from scratch. Installing a database software using the CLI is not coding anything from scratch so I'm not quite sure...

    You don't need to install any control panel. It is entirely possible to install XenForo without using it, I personally prefer less bloat. I wouldn't recommend shared hosting because the resources aren't guaranteed to be yours, which is a problem for a large amount of traffic.

    I am not sure if you can purge old attachments. It depends on how many they upload and the resolution

    Two things I see with Cloud that you may want to consider is the 500,000 pageview limit. Depending on how active it is, you may reach that limit, especially if you anticipate 10,000 users. Also, 50GB of storage isn't that much space. You can disable people uploading attachments but those are two...

    I am not sure since I don't use XenForo cloud, but it is most likely a CNAME entry that you add for with a record pointing to XenForo. It will then redirect to your site. I personally use Namecheap + Cloudflare to protect my site and they're reasonably priced. Not sure if I'm allowed to name...

    I host XenForo for myself and the software I use is Ubuntu for my OS, Caddy for my webserver, and MariaDB for the database. You can host a webserver off of your own internet but I'd still recommend buying a server and hosting it there. As someone said above, a webserver is more reliable. You...

    Personally, I wouldn't host it off of your own internet. It could pose a potential security risk and if someone were to DoS/DDoS your site, your internet would be affected. Although, yes, a gigabit internet connection is plenty to host a XenForo site. You would also have to check with your ISP...

    You can either do self hosted or use XenForo Cloud. XenForo Cloud is $60/mo and takes care of everything for you. You can also buy a license for $160 and host it yourself using your own server. That would entail installing Linux (most companies do this part), setting up a database, and...
