Thanks....
Can you give me a brief description of what the "maintain" link does ? Does it just remove attachments older than 25 days, and those larger than 100 kb ?

I just want to make sure I understand this correctly..
The "File Attachment Options" only take affect if I go through the "maintain" step, correct ?
Looking at the settings, there is no reason why images and avatars should ever be removed unless I do the "maintain" step, correct ?
The reason I ask, is that when I view "browse files" it shows 658 pages of attachments, but there are several hundred of those pages that are blank.
The forum for what ever reason has lost a lot of images over time. I am not completely sure why, and just want to make sure that ther is not some kind of automated setting that is deleting attachments after a specific set period of time and for some reason the forum is loosing attachments.

Just for the record in case someone else stumbles onto this question..
Changing those height and width numbers does work, it is just does not automatically change the size for any members avatars.
Each member needs to re-upload a new image to get the new larger size to work.
Also, for what ever reason, uploading an image from my computer never did work, I had to use a image url.. But even that took several attempts before it did finally work.

This is what I see.. Nothing that is specific to "small settings enabled"
I changed everything from 65 x 65 to 90 x 90 but no change..
Would like everyone's avatar to be twice the size as they are.

General Discussion / Re: Tips to Promote your board.
« on: October 01, 2018, 03:42:48 am »
I have not read through this entire topic, but would like to just give my two cents, and apologies if someone else has already covered ..
Promoting is to progress or encourage … The real question is how to get our forums to be seen on the internet.
Content and indexing are the key .
Creating a title that is made of of key words specific to the content of the forum. Creating boards within that are specific to that content.
Submiting the forum to at least the most popular search engines.
I have also found Google Blogger an ideal tool. They are indexed quickly and can be found on the first page of search engine key word results if done correctly. Making sure that the title is made of of key words relevant to the content.. Make sure the description for the blog is also relevant to the contect and title. Key words and content are king when it comes to being properly indexed.
Submit posts to the blog that are linked back to the forum.. Also use SMF's social media buttons and share topics to Facebook and others.
Hope this makes sense and helps a little..
