From what I've heard, Xenforo gets very mixed reviews.
Some people support the Facebook integration, easy theme selection and customization, and the Search-engine Optimization (SEO) makes finding things from your forum on google easier, increasing traffic.
On the other hand, people dislike the Facebook integration (namely, people without facebook) and it is said to have problems with cookies. For example, users on Google Chrome can not stay logged in.
But the installation is said to be amazingly easy.
Buying the software is $140, and removing copyright information on each page is an additional $250, so if this is for something professional you will need to pay ~$400, not sure you want to put that much money into this. Of course, there's always 'unsupported' options that we are not to talk about

And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that -
Varine:
These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
-
Varine:
Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
-
Varine:
Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing

Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such -
-
Varine:
I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic

Varine:
I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.

I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
