To close an account, or for any other reason, members are required to make a request thread in Suggestions, Questions & Feedback. This is now part of the terms. We are down to an average of 70 spam emails a day, which makes it quite unlikely genuine email will be seen.

Also, not important enough for own thread, just moved from PHP 5.3 to 7.2. I didn't even know I could do that on this edition of cPanel, just thought all our hosts would have progressed it automatically. PHP has many difficulties, but is something that needs to be cutting-edge. Unlike...

For the missed sense of danger for those who feel too safe ? There's also MATH, once it was worked out how to add it to the Editor toolbar layout. The little fx beside the Drafts symbol.

It may be noted that XenForo add-ons are added now and then, plus the basic XenForo structure has things not available in earlier times --- such as Drafts saving ( the little floppy disk symbol in the post page; drafts come up when you enter the node where you saved them ). Drag n' Drop...

Confusing if this is a go-to thread for such people, easily overlooked, so futurely they will make their own requests individually. ....Aaand Close.

Sure.

Done. A little GDPR, some minor additions... Release Note As ever, the language add-ons are all in Outdated Phrases until the misfortunate authors upgrade them to the new version. Probably doesn't matter... Chito and Yuuri The little darlings

Yeah, you knew it would happen. Xenforo's issuing them fortnightly. Can't say they don't give value for money... :paladin: :chibSep::hearts:

I wondered if I had turned off, or had even been allowed to turn off, that dreary message: posted from my bbb by Tapatalk. Still don't know, however went to the account --- Tapatalk bungled the password in my Firefox ( which I checked in my master list ) three times which led to Capchas...

First time it's ever been done, since it's a brand-new add on tool... Anonymizing will: Rename the account to Ex-User (221) Delete all logged IP adresses Replace the user password with a 256 byte long random string Disable the user account Delete all warnings and bans the...

Well, he didn't bother to come back, so I'll just anonymize him out of here.

Recent spam I shared in the ModBox: Do you want something new? Look at this site. Only here the choice of girls for every taste and completely free! They are obedient slaves, they will do everything you say!

Don't worry, the edict is rescinded. I just added Gmail to the Junk Providers, maybe months ago in vBulletin times of yore --- and included it in the jolly nice green notice unregistered people see warning them not to register with bad emails. There are maybe 7000 junk email providers in...

With the latest upgrade XenForo has provided more tools for our compliance with GDPR. Naturally prospective registrants are required to agree to become members; but now all members however venerable have notices, with logged times, to separately agree to both the Privacy Policy and the Terms...

:applause: :moriyabig:

OK, that's done. Seemed to take forever.

OK, copy everything you need to copy, and report back here. There;s no need to bring a suitcase.

XenForo 2.06 has been released ahead of time to put in additional tools for dealing with GDPR. Not a lot of bug fixes, just this GDPR rubbish. Release Note

Xenforo is issuing a new iteration with all of that consent stuff. As to date of birth, where living etc. etc. why the hell wouldn't anyone just lie on internet forms ? I generally do.

We cannot purge your posts, but we can anonymise you and all of those posts. Further we can issue you a privacy report. Obviously anyone who chooses this fearful exit must be banned forever afterwards. Kinda like Britain leaving the EU. Ain't no return this side of the grave.

And on the castled crag of Drachenfels, here's a blog on the Romantics with a dash of Rhine Romanticism, Morphosis: Indeed, Childe Harold 3 is divided into two phases: a 'horizontal' phase when Harold-Byron moves across Europe, musing on the pitiable nature of mortal humanity; and then a...

Fine, but one feels silly riding out on the moors with a fish perched on one's wrist. :cheerleaderkitties::cheerleaderkitties:

Some members have been getting the XenForo message above, with the ghastly 'Oops !' Looked it up and it's part of a spam check. Gloomy XenForo says: If this is a privileged user, you can give them the bypass spam check permission. So I turned it off for all Noble Users, the vast...

Hi It's a very old windswept castle, with many ghosts. I/ SCENE I. A Castle in the Apennines, surrounded by a wild but smiling country. II/ Rhineland And there they stand, as stands a lofty mind, Worn, but unstooping to the baser crowd, All tenantless, save to the crannying wind, Or...

Well, they are a judgemental people.

Note there are now things called Profile Covers, enabled for all users. Strip images you choose from your own computer go above your profile page if you wish. Go to your Profile, where the profile posts are, and under 'When Joined' there is a clickable Profile Cover, next to Find. Add-on...

Usually they fade even if some damage is done; permanently working out in the fields for years generally made people darker than they would be and weather-beaten. Same with those old girls in the 20th century who soaked up the Riviera sun. The first were poor and had little choice. The...

A hovering preview, a tool-tip thing, showing part of the last post in a thread now appears under the cursor positioned on the thread-title. :raven02:

Further, the Flags add on had to be updated ( under location ), and checking permissions for another thing, I saw each member group apparently needed enabling --- apparently, since I saw them OK --- so I went in each group... Sorry if you didn't see them for a while. The other thing was...

The Cookies Help either came with the forum default, or was added by the previous Cookie add on. The Terms and Rules, as mentioned elsewhere, have to be found in Search Phrases, then the added additions with < p > liberally sprinkled were easy to edit in. The Privacy Policy I just created ab...

Thank you; that looks very good. And more thanks for the map.

Following this, and my post in the Translations thread on GDPR, a few hours ago XenForo announced coping mechanisms for the trauma to be implemented in 2.06, the next iteration of the software. XenForo : Upcoming changes for GDPR compliance in XF1 and XF2 This is excellent.

Now added, Spanish, courtesy of the author, Flare.

Ah, I've also experimented with this add on, that highlights threads the logged in user has participated in: SC To avoid outrage it is more a pale dove grey right now; but if people want it could be different. There a colour picker... And to continue a theme: the settings are under each...

K. However the Cookie add-on is only there as a stop-gap until a better comes along; just to get it there before 25th of May. If you prefer another that can be installed. Any other. So long as there's something. Of course, the GDPR police aren't going to come after us anyway, we were...

OK, done. Took around 1 hour & a half, which reflects mostly on a wretched upload rate. :poseidon:

I didn't check for the slowness, but later I did the repair/optimize bits ( always in that order whether it's right or wrong ) and knocked away a few spare databases. Delightfully though they just issued 2.05. So, in a few hours...

As well as restoring the grand old member map so beloved on vbull --- except this, like most things on earth is Google, and there are no member markers to be seen yet, and it is not a view of the entire globe, with little lights as before --- to be found under Members on the top navbar, a...

Dunno. I'll ask around.

We are now at 2.04 released on the 16th of last month. It took an inordinate amount of time.

With the GDPR coming, a delightful new Privacy Policy is here, that applies to all new members on registration; and by default to all past and present members, being assumed to have agreed. IT is under Help on the lowest rung, and is presented here, as The Sunne in Splendour. I do see it's...

Since some have posted threads here, I had to do permissions for this sub-forum to stop that thing --- General is for Forum announcements etc. etc. --- which means setting permissions for each user-group separately. Idiotically XenForo collapses node ( = sub-forum ) moderation permissions...

Moved from General, which is for announcements etc..

URLJet asks: 'Have they cleared cookies after logout? --- Please ask them to do this, then report back if clearing cookies allowed them to login after this logout issue.'

I don't think that works that way, although open to correction. When you join, you set your local time zone, so all displayed times are relative to that time zone. Of course one day everything will be UTC: The Difference Between GMT and UTC In the mean time I dream of setting computer time...

I'll ask around, but I've no idea why this would happen: have you tried your real account with a different browser ? Incidentally, we're quite uninterested in people having extra accounts here. Sock-Puppetry is the Hobgoblin of Little Admin Minds. Just remember, he who lives more accounts...

You don't have to, since you're in. :cheerleaderkitties: But if you ever wanted to, on Firefox for example, go to preferences, privacy, show cookies --- type in as much of the site as you want in search, such as 'intp' --- and either select and remove individual cookies or 'remove all'...

Nah, URLJet has always been one of the shining lights of America, Cheyenne, WY to be exact. I rather think it was Kansas City before... Still, nearly a week's struggling... Sometimes I thought it gone, cos if back-ups don't work I couldn't recreate it from memory.

Note also, as with notice at the top, intpforum cookies should be wiped out before logging in if possible, if you see the OOPs message XF favours, log out or don't log in, destroy the cookies if any, then log in. Passwords are not dependent on cookies.

Tragically, on the 15th a database went west, and since then the site was inaccessible. Michael and others from URLJet worked incredibly since. I supplied spare databases and they weren't accepted, from my personal Full Back-up of the 13th --- the R1 back-up system URLJet use didn't work...
