Also, I think it's still valid to ask XF to integrate 3rd party add-on features. Oh, I see this thread is in "Resource and add-on requests". Maybe it could be moved to the "suggestions" forum.

This addon does it https://xenforo.com/community/resources/ozzmodz-post-areas.6779/

Oh, and sometimes it's not as simple as "VPN". This is a mailknox spammer using a "public proxy":

I have essentially the same process & experiences as @Reflect. This is what my queue looks like: I see the IP, but I have to click it to see whether it's a VPN, static, dynamic, etc. It would be much better if I didn't have to click it. The Stopforumspam note is useful but I don't rely on...

I'm not a fan of that method at all. The Reddit/Lemmy method is fine but requires that new comments be highlighted.

More and more people are seeing the fediverse as the future: https://digiday.com/media/why-publishers-are-preparing-to-federate-their-sites/

Good tip! I'm using the free "reply to user" addon https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cxf-reply-to-user.6328/, and the phrase is reply_to, /admin.php?phrases/reply_to.10746/edit&language_id=1.

I'm guessing some things from this addon have been integrated into XF base since the addon was created, so updating the addon description would be nice. From the main page: 1-2. Already exists. This addon doesn't seem to change anything in this regard. 3. There is no "confirm password". I...

Would it be simple to add a permission that allows users to view the edit history of their own posts, and view their own posts that have been deleted by mods? https://xenforo.com/community/threads/remove-posts-content-while-allowing-the-author-to-view-and-edit.221255/

I would prefer to remove the post and have them edit it themselves, then approve it after. Not really. I've had my posts edited on various forums and I just think it's not an ideal way to do things. I'd rather leave it up to the user. Yeah, I've also left various forums because of poor...

That seems fairly complicated, and also not ideal since the private forum would be visible to all members instead of only particular users seeing their own content. From what I know about how Xenforo works, my suggestion should be pretty easy and simple to implement, while having relatively...

On a lot of forums I see admins editing user's posts. I find it unnerving that my content gets changed by someone else and I have no record of what was removed or changed. It feels like my intellectual property has been violated. I wrote something "as me", and now someone changed it...

Maybe not now, but Threads joined the fediverse, Bluesky is federated but on its own protocol, Discourse forum software has joined/is joining the fediverse, and I believe Wordpress has an addon that allows federation. The fediverse is the future.
