    Glad things are back up, but you'll see that we lost a few days of content, sorry folks. I am prepping a full explanation offline, as I have to get the details to the ... many websites impacted by this one... Yes, it has been a very very long week for me.

    Existing Feature Events Calendar

    Not 100% clear to me at this time. It appears that the calendar plugin I linked above works by creating a special thread type. The owner of a thread also controls the calendar, it's events, and appears to be responsible for the upkeep of the calendar (addition, removal, and editing of...

    Existing Feature Events Calendar

    This looks like it would work, but we would need to designate a "caretaker of the events calendar": https://xenforo.com/community/resources/calendar.5606/

    Unable to post in the banner ad thread

    Spent some time with a colleague brainstorming on this, but.. ..this makes this impossible for me to diagnose. It sounds like it might be something like a browser extension conflict, but I have no idea how to begin to tackle this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    We're Going to Try Some Banner Ads for Guest (Not Logged In) Users

    Please excuse the delay, I stepped away from the forum for a couple of weeks for a bit of time to clear my head. Probably browser caching. Please empty your browser cache and have a quick review. Let me know if anything is out of place. Appreciate the kind comments. Have to give things a try...

    You definitely don't have to, existing tiers haven't changed at all, I just created additional tiers, but there is no reason to use any but the originals, except to support the forum. Yeah, I keep turning them down, every few days. They were now at the minimum level, but I get the sense the...

    We're Going to Try Some Banner Ads for Guest (Not Logged In) Users

    UPDATE There is a good chance that I am going to move towards pulling the plug on the 'ads for non-logged in' users concept, but I want to let it run its course for a while longer (weeks, maybe a few months), to gather some more data first. --> This is the slowest period of the year, so using a...

    We're Going to Try Some Banner Ads for Guest (Not Logged In) Users

    I added a bold banner for non-logged in folk explaining the whole "Sign up for an account and have an ad-free experience" thing. In the meantime, I've been watching the analytics, and there isn't an appreciable change in how the site is being used by non-registered folks, so that's good. Yep...
