As of today with API 2.10, promoting to Facebook doesn't seem to work. Up until now it worked without doing the permissions stuff... but who knows if that's the issue now. And getting that permissions stuff done is super annoying... sigh.

Hi, all. I created a new member group on my forum and for some reason they can't "like" posts made by other members. Looking at the Reputations and Reactions tab in the admin CP, it seems that everything is in order. Is there something else I need to do when creating a new group to enable the reaction feature for them? Thanks in advance for any help - it's much appreciated!

At the end of June 2017 I installed one of your updates that came out at that time, and afterwards the number of my pages in google's index dropped off dramatically. Is there any known issue with that update? What could explain the drop? There are no penalties or known issues that I can find in Google or on the site. I am talking about going from ~500,000 pages in their index, to ~100,000 in 6 months.

Is there a way to define the length of what's exported in RSS feed from a Pages Database? I don't want whole articles to be there because a certain forum sicks our contents and reposts it in their internal part thus lowering out pageviews. For the time being I've been forced to turn off RSS for databases but it's like fighting rats with a Kalashnikov - too much collateral damage. Something like "read more" feature from Wordpress would be ideal. How can I achieve that?

As a further thought. what is the typical storage limit allocated to members ? Thanks Marek
