Re: Ancient Vbulletin 3 forum looking for a new forum script!
I did a migration from vb4 (with a bunch of legacy 3 stuff) to Vanilla in 2019 (migration, customization). It was not a smooth experience, but I did a complete redesign at the same time and spun stuff like gallery and downloads sections into categories. How easy it will be will depend quite a lot on what their vBulletin… -
Re: How to implement a confidential category?
Coming at Vanilla from a standing start writing a plugin is not so easy. Looking at class.hooks and class.discussionscontroller I am beginning to see the way ahead. However I would appreciate some advice on how to include or exclude certain categories from a list of discussions. To clarify, the aim is to have to have a… -

It is $isHomepage You can load an entire new page template design if you want {if $isHomepage} <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <title>my… -
Re: I think i like the new layout of vf.org!*
Ok keep popping back, my final word at present lol. It isnt very nice to use. Far too many font sizes, and inconsistent color schemes. The forum itself seems squeezed into the left hand container. The voting ( view counts , new ) boxes , really are way to big. The font family, really seems old for this kind of layout. The… -
Bonk plugin - Responsive image display
I've added this into a 3.3 version of Vanilla, and it works out of the box. There's one aspect that may not display well if users are visiting the site with mobile devices when using the default 'Keystone' theme, and possibly other mobile-ready themes. The 404 images selected to display won't be responsive by default. I… -
CSS reset
I don't like the fact that vanilla comes with a core CSS file. So I did a CSS reset: #Frame, #Frame .Banner ul li a, #Body, #Content, #Foot, #Foot > div, div.MessageForm, div.Tabs, div.Headings, div.Box, div.Box h4, ul.PanelInfo li, ul.DataList li,a.Active, div.Tabs li.Active a, ul.PanelInfo li.Active… -

Re: I need sort of a sparing partner...
Creating thumbs as well as changing ForeignID and Type is not needed. There is no official use case for it. I'm aware of that. A picture that has been uploaded with e.g. Comment#999 can be used in arbitrary other dicsussions and comments. So what is updating ForeignID and Type really good for? I don't know. But someone… -
Reasons to move to Vanilla forums?
We put together a phpbb based forum to support our members with a service that we offer. While phpbb seems to do everything we want there are three main reasons we are starting to look at alternatives before our forums grow too much. The first is the argument about permalinks or 'friendly' URL I think they are called. This… -
Re: Issues with categories, under 3.2
Issue #2 This one concerns me more than #1, as I should be able to work around #1, as per the following. I figured that I would just clean up by moving my few discussions to a temporary category called Hold, deleting the other categories, and starting afresh. However, it's in a seemingly weird state now. This is a new…
