Re: Russian language

June 4, 2008 by chatham

Hi Gwidon.

We're looking for people to help us translate it into various languages. Would you be able to help with Russian?

As for a paid version without advertisements. This is something we're looking to offer as a paid service in the near future. If you want to discuss it further private message the Chief.

Hi Spook. You can do it. Feel free to imbed an Imeem widget or one from other providers.

Re: Music on my forum

June 4, 2008 by chatham

Unfortunately that is the nature of the beast of the music player and we don't have much control over it. I'll look into any other alternatives that might work.

Re: Guyz!

June 4, 2008 by chatham

In the future if you could please title the topic appropriately then we can answer it faster. 'guyz!' isn't too descriptive. :)

We include your moderators since they are helping out your board as well and they deserve credit.

We will be looking into adding grouping features in the future. We build out new features all the time and its on our list.

Re: Question

You can change the theme to the 'classic' view which is similar in style to vbulletin.

Re: What's with all the Spam?

May 28, 2008 by chatham

Our spam system is constantly learning. We do sweeps of spam all the time and for every message that gets through we catch 100's. Hence why we allow people to do anonymous posting.

Our goal is to avoid captcha's if possible since its just another step in the user experience. If things change we will reasses the need for them.

Re: Default Category?

May 28, 2008 by chatham

We implemented it that way according to usage behavior. We have seen that people often time start a topic in the topic they just were in. I do see your point about it being confusing if you happen to be in the main forum page however.

Re: Sub-categories

May 28, 2008 by chatham

We currently don't offer subforums. This is something we're discussing internally about implementing in the future.

Re: Photo Upload

May 28, 2008 by chatham

We have this bug in our test queue and will get to it shortly.

Re: smilys and things

You can do that by clicking on the 'switch to visual editor' function in the upper right hand corner of the edit box. Here is where its located.

Re: username already taken. huh?!! what?

May 14, 2008 by chatham

While his username isn't taken in your forum it probably has been used by someone else in the Lefora platform.

One of the unique things we have built out is that we allow single sign on to any forum hosted by Lefora. That way people don't ever have to worry about joining all the forums they are interested in. Unfortunately this does mean people will be scrambling to take up the cool users names like Archon. :(

Re: How to remove Lefora's Google Adsense on my Forum

April 29, 2008 by chatham

Hey Carpe Diem,

Private message me or the chief your current forum name and we'll see what we can do.

Re: I want to set up parallel words in a grid/spreadsheet

April 26, 2008 by chatham

Do you have an example or a screenshot we can look at so we can see what exactly would need to be done and if its possible within our system.

Re: How to remove Lefora's Google Adsense on my Forum

April 25, 2008 by chatham

The ads we are currently using are Google AdSense. The way they work is that they search the text of the pages and serve an ad up based on the context. As long as the content you're putting up isn't lude the ads should reflect that appropriately. If this becomes and issue then I'd be happy to talk to you about potential options.

Re: Sidebar suggession

April 8, 2008 by chatham

Yes I agree. The name of CHIEF is apt!

Re: Thread Count?

April 2, 2008 by chatham

Are you reffering to the 'headlines' page I take it? That is just a general overview of the site. Regular members can also access 'forum' where they can find every post made even if it has no replies.

Re: Screwy Categories

March 28, 2008 by chatham

If I'm understanding correctly he referred the single post across multiple categories. We've built this original feature in so that people can contribute to a thread from multiple entry points.

Re: Problems Posting Pictures

March 19, 2008 by chatham

Perfect. We're looking into it.

Re: Theme Colours, Search box appearance & Log Out

March 18, 2008 by chatham

Great. That will help us in trying to isolate the issue.

Re: require membership to post? not working?

March 18, 2008 by chatham

We're aware of this problem and working on it. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: option to change color for link that's been followed...

March 18, 2008 by chatham

We're playing with the themes to get them just right. I will make note of this to our designer.

Re: "sticky" not working?

March 18, 2008 by chatham

Seems we missed this one in our testing. I have put it into our bug queue.

Re: forum description

March 18, 2008 by chatham

This will be coming out in the next build that will include a bunch of little fixes here and there.

Re: Problems Posting Pictures

March 18, 2008 by chatham

Could you please post a URL where it isn't working. That way we can try to identify whats wrong.

Re: Theme Colours, Search box appearance & Log Out

March 18, 2008 by chatham

Are you using Firefox 2 by any chance?

Re: something up with embedding videos?

March 18, 2008 by chatham

Can you ask the members that are having issues what browser they are using. Also links to the URL of where they attempted to post the videos would help out a ton.

Re: Locking threads, etc.

March 18, 2008 by chatham

We are working on the ability to move posts as we speak, we figure it should be released in a few days if all goes well. Locking posts is also in the roadmap.

Re: How do I edit the CSS of my forum?

March 6, 2008 by chatham

Hey. We're playing with putting out a new release of the code today. I can work together with you to put it where it was until we get the theme color editor fixed.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions

January 14, 2008 by chatham

We are working on the privacy and user controls in our next major release.

Frequently Asked Questions

Re: Internal Server Error

December 24, 2007 by chatham

We're looking into it internally. Could you ask the people that had this error to reload and see what happens. Also, if you could cut and past the emails here that could help a lot as well.
