Altmin works to understand XenForo

I almost thought about messaging Ben and telling him there is so much I could help with, and so many things I could make better, given how much I customized this but he still might think I’m a jackass for starting a forum called ZZL.

And if you guys didn’t know, I am DannyArcher on that forum. Name came from a suggestion for anonymity from Sherrell.
Well you kind of blew the anonymity now.
 
I’d also thought about creating a post where I highlight some of the advantages of the software they are using but it’s a tad time consuming.
 
@Rock Do you think this would work for what we are seeking? Member Watch

And if so, do you mind trying it? I don't want to overstep my bounds in asking for favors.

oh, also I have opened a trial account with xenoforu so i can test things directly. I am just getting my feet wet with it. I may have some questions for you when I hit a wall. It made me really miss having admin powers on IC. They took them away when we moved from scout to 247 and then further restricted our mod powers as time went on.
 
I would say that someone should make me an admin on a message board so I can do things like this...but that's just be signing up for fixing all the things I'd inevitably break. :ROFLMAO:

I’ve seen that before and unfortunately, a number of things suggest that it didn’t have great functionality like it claims. A low number of downloads and the fact that it hasn’t been updated since 2023 despite XenForo having further updates since then meaning it may not even work.

XenForo is powerful but also a little delicate. One issue is that I don’t know if On3 gave you guys admin capabilities where you can toy around with adding customization or you have to run everything through them which seems like it would be a nightmare.

I really wish Ben would give me the keys to making the site better but I understand that doesn’t make a lot of sense.

In my opinion, if you guys want a legit follow feature you are going to have to pay someone to create it unless On3 employs XF developers.
