    Consider having sub-forum for "sand box" to allow experimenting n/t

    Ok, I got the Alert about "Send Resolution Report" ... see screen shot. BTW, in the Alert, it would be helpful to have the remark: > "Your recent report has been resolved: Post in thread 'Vinyl Plank - Loose Lay Flooring' " be a link of that actual post, if possible. My speculation is that...

    Consider having sub-forum for "sand box" to allow experimenting n/t

    I did take a look at the wiki entry for xF, and noted the legal problems with VBulletin. Looks like lots of dissension while attempting to "herd cats". Software developers can be very difficult to manage, as you may know from personal experience ... and that includes the "guy in the mirror" (me).

    Consider having sub-forum for "sand box" to allow experimenting n/t

    Interesting ... thanks for sharing on that. I also have a series of websites I own/manage, and have been the volunteer webmaster for several non-profits and political campaigns over the years. I consider myself rusty at PHP, and a semi-advanced user of some forums. I don't see myself as a...

    Consider having sub-forum for "sand box" to allow experimenting n/t

    My impression is that remodelforums.com is a real forum, but you are inviting non-remodelers to provide feedback. I don't want to test out stuff, and be a distraction to real forum members. I'm curious if you are part of XenForo, someone who writes "mods" (like SMF), or a "power user" who is...

Where are the "transitions" between difference categories of members ... at what point do you go from newbie to freshman to member to hero, etc. Generally, this can be ascertained from the Member list, if not specified by the forum...

    Nit: Recent tab shows "Replied" and New tab shows "Posted" for same message

    On the right side of the window, there are tabs for "Recent", "New", and "Popular". It appears that for an OP with no replied, in the "Recent" tab, it will show that the OP is a Reply. The "New" tab shows that the OP was a Post.

    Unclear how to see "Next" page of members

    Hi Rob, Just trying out the XenForo forum engine. I attempted to take a look at the list of members. Some observations: Didn't see how to get past the first page. Did I not look hard enough? It seems to be sorted only by number of posts Didn't see how to sort alphabetically, newest, oldest...

    Nit: profile field for "home page" has glitches

    Hi Rob, I created an account, and went to the webpage to provide information. Wouldn't accept berean.zenfolio.com (which is valid url) Seems to insist on having www. in front, and/or http:// Once I'd provided a url it accepted, then I got a warning that I needed to have a certain number of...
