Marc Stridgen got a reaction from SeNioR- in There's something wrong with .mov files embedding
I can see this happening with MOV files here and opened a bug report on this. It appears it is happening with any device that cannot natively play them. Not only can you not show the video (expected) but you cannot download it (not expected)

Excellent find! I will get some more information on that my end now, and see if we can get this confirmed, then logged as a bug

Marc Stridgen reacted to Zone Plate in Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource.
Bingo! I had a related issue with an old app that I moved out of the folder as a copy. I would have never figured this out.

Marc Stridgen got a reaction from Joachim Sandstrom in How taxes work for each country?
You would find what is being referred to above in Commerce->Payments->Settings->Tax Rates within your ACP (Admin CP). You can choose from either a single rate per country, Separate consumer and business rates, or European VAT rates where there is a differentiation between VAT-registered and none VAT-Registered companies

No problem. If you are happy with the resolution there, all good.

Marc Stridgen reacted to opentype in How taxes work for each country?
There is no universal list. It depends on what is legally required in your country.
There can also be distinction between business-to-business sales and business-to-consumer sales and there is an additional condition within in the EU about VAT ID numbers. But again, all of that depends on your country.

Marc Stridgen reacted to Jim M in How do I move a post?
For those wondering, "Split" is the command which will allow you to split a post from a topic and either make a new topic out of it or add it to an existing topic.

Marc Stridgen got a reaction from Luciann in Clearing themes cache
It can only really be cache external to the software if theme updates arent showing after clearing cache. I would suggest contacting your hosting company on that issue

I have created a ticket for you on this. Its impossible to say without investigation why this may have happened.

Marc Stridgen got a reaction from marklcfc in What happens if great content badge is awarded twice?
If the same member is awarded the same item on 2 occasions, it would indeed get awarded twice. Say for example, 2 separate posts for being helpful. So on the profile it would actually show twice, with 2 links to the items in question.
For example, 'Mr Test' here has 2 badges for being helpful

Marc Stridgen reacted to opentype in Bulk email failed after 300 sends, can I bulk resend?
What method/service is set up to send emails?
My guess would be that you use your hosting provider and they limit the amount of mails you can send out.

Marc Stridgen reacted to Matt in 429 Too many requests
I would ask them to define what they mean by "too many". It could mean 5000, or it could mean 5.
It sounds like a host that is trying to fit large sites on small footprints.

Marc Stridgen reacted to Stuart Silvester in Why has my custom Java and CSS disappeared?
Hi Nigel,
I think you're looking at the global theme editor instead of the specific to Pages.
The CSS and Javascript files for Pages are stored in a different place, go to AdminCP > Pages > Templates.

Marc Stridgen got a reaction from Dexter_X in Online Users doesn't always show correctly
Just an update. I have sent this up to our tier 2 developers to take a look at this and see whats happening.

Marc Stridgen reacted to Ehren in A way to add "members only" after forum titles?
Hi @Redmak
I do something similar on my own forums, however I show an overlay to non-customers (basically guests or regular members). If an admin or customer is viewing the site, the overlay isn't shown. I use css to achieve this, and it only involves a minor template modification on globalTemplate.
This technique can easily be adjusted to show the icon/message to members instead. To use this technique on your site, open your globalTemplate file and find:
<html Change that to:
<html data-group-id='{expression="member.member_group_id"}' That will output the member group ID of the current visitor. We can now use something like the below code to display a message or icon next to certain forum names. This example will add a "Members only" badge next to forum #81 if the person viewing your site is in group 3 ("Members" by default):
[data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='81'] .ipsDataItem_title::after{ content: 'Members only'; font-size: 0.6em; font-weight: bold; background: rgb(var(--theme-text_light)); color: #fff; border-radius: 4px; padding: .2em .7em; margin-left: .7em; } If you're unfamiliar with CSS, you can add this badge to multiple forums by duplicating and comma separating the top line like so:
[data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='81'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='82'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='105'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='202'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='231'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='232'] .ipsDataItem_title::after{ content: 'Members only'; font-size: 0.6em; font-weight: bold; background: rgb(var(--theme-text_light)); color: #fff; border-radius: 4px; padding: .2em .7em; margin-left: .7em; } Or, if you'd rather use the padlock instead:
[data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='81'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='82'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='105'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='202'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='231'] .ipsDataItem_title::after, [data-group-id='3'] [data-forumid='232'] .ipsDataItem_title::after{ content: '🔒'; }
Does that help?

Marc Stridgen reacted to Stuart Silvester in Date format in Calendar date picker
Unfortunately, this is controlled by your browser, the browser language settings and in some cases, your OS locale settings. It isn't something we have any control over.

Marc Stridgen reacted to action-reaction in I can't install the forum
Hello Marc,
I tried once again and this time it works at first time.
I will change the menu in the next days, so if that problem is back, I will make a point here.

Marc Stridgen reacted to Thomas P in Best caching method for BIG board
Hi,
just use (i.e. upgrade to) Redis:
Second try elasticsearch (ES) instead of plain MySQL based Search, you can use it on the same server(s) or offload ES to an external service:
There are more tidbits in the a.m. article 😉
Works well for us, good luck,
Thomas

Marc Stridgen reacted to Davyc in Firefox Problems
Thanks Marc, I've been corresponding with you - top notch support as always, and hopefully we can figure out a resolution to this issue. Personally, I never use FF and would not have known about this had a member not reported it to me. It's strange why this is happening with FF, but then this is the Internet lol. Thanks again Marc 🙂

I have seen your ticket on this, and will do some back and forth with you on there to see if we can get to the bottom of what is causing the problem for you

Marc Stridgen reacted to Mark H in Date format in Calendar date picker
If I've understood correctly what you asked, check the Calendar Settings in the ACP here:
The date format can be adjusted in the "Date format for events" setting.

Marc Stridgen reacted to nodle in Conversion XenForo 2.2 to Invision Community 4.5 or 4.6
@anon2020 I spoke to @Charles the other day and he mentioned that they have a converter coming out that should be released in a week or two. I just renewed myself and am anxiously awaiting the converter as well, so that I can convert and come back to the Invision platform for Xenforo 2.2.6. Hopefully it will be done soon. I know there are quite a few of us on the Xenforo side looking to jump ship over here. I'll be watching the release notes and chomping at the bit in the meantime. 🙂
