When receiving a personal message in an ongoing message [more than one page] clicking the notification takes me to the first page of the multi page messages rather than either the message received or the last message. Is there anyway to take the person to the message received or last page of the message in a multi page message?

I would just like some help on how can i change or set the forums social media logo, everytime i share the community forums link, my forum profile's display picture is used as the thumbnail. I've looked all through the AdminCP and i can't seem to find the setting. Thank you. Just looked into "Meta Tags" a bit more and site map, So my meta setting is on "https://xtgcommunity.net/forums/ " and left the page address blank. Does this mean that the meta data will generate a picture and random description from the forum board? When i share the link on Facebook, my display picture is used as the thumbnail and a random thread is used as the description which…

After configuring a big part of my installation I noticed that dates do not show correctly anymore. The calendar also shows an error that a non valid date has been chosen? A reinstall fixes this problem but I would like to know the cause of it, as it could happen in the future.

Hello, I have issue, that my forum files and registration license key are in "/forumas" directory, how I can make that subdirectory load from root? For example my forum location is in "https://*.com/forumas", but I wanna open forum when users goes to the root path "https://*.com". Is there some specific custom index.php and .htaccess files to make that possible or what?

As is now the widget on profiles shows only the last five profile visitors. Is there a way to increase the number to display? I'd like our members to be able to see at the least the last 50 visitors. Perhaps a click to show more a page that shows a more complete list?

When using Twitter emoji, it seems that the emoji selector has to reload every image every time, at a ridiculously slow rate. Is this just something with our configuration or is this the norm?

Hi: I tried to upgrade my forum yesterday. Long story short, as soon as I upgraded to suggested versions php 7.1.0 and MySQL 5.6.2, I could no longer access my forum/admin and therefore couldn't perform the upgrade. I tried to solve the problem for hours, and finally gave up. So, I reverted back to my PHP 5.6.31 and MYSQL 5.1.73 (it was functioning prior to), so at least I could get my forum back up and running. No luck. What could I be missing? Everything looks like it's fine on my Windows Server 2012R2. MySQL shows it is accessing the database. However when I try to pull up my page, I get a 500 internal server error. http://www.6thcorpscombatengineers.com/engforu…

I have a very frustrating issue, that I need some guidance on. Our site, has very indepth options using the profile app. There are 13 profile groups, with each having a number of field options under them. Sometimes I sign on in the morning, and fields of 1 group have moved to another. I have to manually drag them back in place every time this happens. I am not working on this area, or making changes there at all, all the organization is done. Yesterday I got a PM from a member saying their phone number and other info is not in the right place. I went into the Profile editor, and moved things back to the group they belonged. I woke up this morning and one of th…

Hey, I was wondering if anyone happens to know where I could find a guide to setting up a production version in XAMPP on a mac. I'm guessing there's one somewhere on the site, or if anyone has done it and happens to feel like explaining how that would be awesome.

After reinstalling the custom buttons on my editor after the most recent CKEditor upgrade, I find I cannot install the CKEditor Footnotes plugin - it craps out with "invalid plugin," even though I've been using the same plugin for years. Even re-downloaded it fresh from the site but no luck. Is there a way to try to finagle the button in by uploading the un-zipped files? Or is there something else I can do? Thanks!
