Following on from @hbf's advice, and in case you aren't aware of it, a valuable tool to try and figure out where things are slow with your site, at least on the front end of things (that is, not with your database and connections to it) is Firebug.

Read again. I said it was fixed months ago. Several issues were fixed related to that regex actually, not just what you noted. And, this topic has been covered elsewhere.
Really? I'd love a link -- I couldn't find any other thre…
@Lincoln you've got to be kidding me. Your last comment in this thread,** in July 2011**, was 'Nope' in response to a question about fixing a regex. It's hard to trivialize that.
And you'll note that nobody was helped here, for free or otherwise. I…
So the Achievements plugin for Buddypress gets it perfectly right, as far as I'm concerned, but I'm not sure if it's replicable for Vanilla.
Effectively what it does is look at event hooks (including ones exposed by other plugins) and let the admin…
It says on the download page 'Very basic proof of concept plugin for which we have big plans!' but this plugin doesn't seem to be in the official (?) Addons Github repo, and hasn't seen an update since 0.1 dropped in October 2010, so I wonder if @Ti…
@marc905 This may not be the way to go, but \applications\dashboard\views\entry\auth\password.php is where you can modify that stuff, I think.
If that is indeed correct, my followup question would be: is it possible to create a custom view for this…
That's just worryingly weird, man. Really. But: fair enough. I appreciate your slightly-demented honesty, but am bewildered by your over-the-top aggro.
I mean, you really did specifically mention me in that comment, so I'm not sure how I have a chi…

no problem with me. I wasn't doing it for you, I was trying to do something for all the other users on the board who don't know how to do a plugin and thought it might help step-by-step in real time with debugging issues as the…
@CurtisOden Ah, OK -- when you mentioned WP's ease of sidebar widget juggling, I thought that was all you wanted to do.
For what it's worth, I sympathize totally with the explodey-head syndrome. I don't know anything about MVC design patterns other…

Maybe the reason for the lack of information is that Vanilla is quite a young project.
Not so much, actually, although the 2.x Monster Rewrite is only, what, a couple of years old now?
I've been running a fairly busy site on Van…

What I don't understand is the following:
You guys are working at a Vanilla site. You are wondering things, so look in the documentation (Wiki!). Something is missing, meaning the documentation is lacking.
Why on earth aren'…
@Tim Last time I checked (a month or two ago?) it was about 120,000 pageviews a week, so call it 500,000 a month-ish...
@peregrine ah, I see. Well, I appreciate the offer, but I'm nowhere near that organized, sadly. My loss, I understand. We'll see…
Thanks for the advice, @Tim. My half-assed changes to Vanilla 1.x on my livesite have meant that it is a freaking beast on MySQL, sadly, and it was pretty heavy to start with. Even with a dedicated database VPS, it chokes sometimes.
Just enough ski…
This is exactly the thing I've been working on lately -- in fact I just downloaded Ignore Users to see how much code I could steal.
I built a similar function for my Vanilla 1.x community (with a terrifying array of hacks to the core, because I cou…
I have found on 2.0.x that CLEditor breaks the Restore Draft function (and I seem to recall that this was confirmed by the developers, but I can't find the thread in question). This may be a solved problem on 2.1 -- I haven't tested it.
I've been u…
@Tim I understand completely. But I do not think that what I have done in the thread you mention is 'aimless whining'. The fact that you noticed it proved it was not aimless, and one thing I'm definitely not is a whiner. You'll just have to take my …
@qualityking Yeah, I got the same error -- was thinking of using it as a base for a different kind of tool.
Sad that they won't offer any advice on it -- I'll update this thread if I find a fix.
And there is a way to remove unwanted attachments. I do it periodicalllty.
You can delete them from posts after the post has been made. I believe the question is how to do so before committing the post. I don't believe there is a way to do that…

I find some of your attacks more offensive than some of the remarks you are attacking, perhaps its just me. Perhaps its time to take a deep breath and lighten up.

One file at a time, but you can attach multiple files. You just need to upload them one by one.
@johanslocker seems to enjoy snarking at other people's expense, but I see no 'Cancel' button at any part of the process, so I think he's either joking …
Oh, that's a rant for another day. I don't think I have the energy left.
The short answer, I guess, isn't that dissimilar to what happened around here on this site around the time of the 1.x - 2.x switchover, and from which I'm not sure the communi…
