Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I got here by googling this on the bing so I figured I'd leave a note for the next visitor. I was able to disable the "email" provider by the following database query: update xf_tfa_provider set active = 0 where provider_id = 'email'; I find it a little...

Is there a way to auto embed media sites even if there's a url tag with title? If doing a copy from a web page where the link has a title, e.g. Saltwater (Chicane Slow Tide Remix) (like doing a YouTube search, right-clicking a result, and copying that link) the media...

Take a look at Redmine. It's a rails app for project issue tracking and documentation that is free, open source, pretty extensible, and has a decently sized community posting how-tos, plugins (some free, some paid), some of which include a pretty nice helpdesk style ticketing system. There are...

I understand that the editor changed between 1.1 and 1.2, and that one of the intentional changes was that color was removed when pasting. Is there a way to turn that back on, or have a button to "paste with color"? One of my users keeps a draft of their racing predictions thread in a Word...

Is there a way to get the search box up in the top right corner to search conversations when the user is in their inbox or reading a conversation?

edit: I looked at HEX(message) for the post. Right smack dab in the middle of the post, here are two instances of the 0x1C of which it complains: 20 1C 43 68 61 [ ] [?] [C] [h] [a] 30 30 2E 20 1C 53 68 6F [0] [0] [.] [ ] [?] [S] [h] [o] An errant paste, perhaps? Did the editor...

Chrome is reporting to me the following error: This page contains the following errors: error on line 329 at column 33: Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0x1C 0x43 0x68 0x61 Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error. on the following page...

Looking at my own database, this ought to do it: UPDATE xf_user_privacy SET allow_view_profile = "everyone"; Make a backup of that table beforehand, just in case.

I'm looking to secure my site a little better against the spam bots. Because recaptcha has been so thoroughly defeated, I currently use custom question/answers. They're answers that anyone who's followed racing, or knows how to google, will get right off the bat, but apparently the spam bots...

Actually, a user of my forum was depending on that feature in order to properly update his thread - he keeps it colored & formatted and such in Word. Is there a way to turn that feature back on?

Thanks, Mike I went both ways - set up a few stock prices for user upgrades, and then gave people a regular donate button with which they can specify any amount, and the instruction to contact us if they'd like any extra goodies.

What I'd like to do is do something special for anybody who donates any amount that they want. If they donate $1.00, great, I love them and I want them to have a special title or something. I don't want to force someone to pay more or less than they wish to pay at any given time Do I need to...

As I often do, I got lost down that rabbit hole and started messing around with the footer myself. Right now the node list is just manually plopped down into the template (good ol' copy/paste) Very first-pass sort of stuff Next step is probably to make it so the user can get rid of it if...

You've seen it somewhere on the web. That chunk of page at the bottom of every page that links back to pretty much everywhere else on the site. The Verge, for example How can I dynamically pull from XenForo's node / page list to build the middle two chunks of that? (forums on the left...

I've encountered what appears to be an IE-specific issue. Particularly IE8, as I don't have other versions of IE handy to test. It is reproducible on xenforo.com. On clicking any thread in which you have permission to reply, the new reply editor at the bottom of the page will grab focus and...
