Hi there, I've created a set of pages around our forum competitions, and I've put them in a folder called, quite logically, "competitions". One of these pages is named "index", and I've made it the "Default page for this folder". I expected this would produce a URL like mysite.com/competitions/ which would load the index page. Unfortunately, the URL created is mysite.com/competitions/index which is not what I want. (And mysite.com/competitions/ produces a Page Not Found error.) Is this a known bug? Or am I doing something wrong? I also have an issue with the navbar breadcrumbs. I have created another page in the competitions folder called "terms…

I'm currently paying for a dedicated server for my forum and I have no idea if I'm paying for more resources than what I need. My forum is small with not a lot of traffic and I don't anticipate much more growth. www.quittrain.com I pay $170 per month for hosting. Any help and guidance is much appreciated. My bandwidth per month is - IN: 1.38 GB, OUT: 4.28 GB Current hardware OS: CentOS Memory (RAM): 16384 Processor: 3.4Ghz Quad Core + HT

Hey folks. My community makes a weekly podcast - Currently we store them on the site in the downloads section along with a few other spots. We would like to start getting onto iTunes BUT currently the RSS feeds for downloads also includes other files we have, which is no good. Is there a way of only getting the feed from our Podcast category?

Hello, I just upgraded my forums. I am now seeing this issue: [[Template forums/front/index/forumRow is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] This message displays where forums normally display. Does this mean I need to rebuild my theme completely?

Hello, I really liked the version 3 IPB chat, but I must say that the version 4 one kinda sucks.. is it me or aren't there any settings anymore? There are no logs, no settings to enable avatars or something, you can't add chat rules anymore.. etc I was wondering if theres a way to have such things? It would also be nice to be able to remove posts on the chat because I have people advertising sometimes or posting viruses and I can kick/ban the people but their post stays which is pretty annyoing. Are there hidden chat commands or something? Or is there really just nothing you can do except enable/disable the chat?

Hi All, I installed IPB as a subdomain...example: forum.XYZ.com however when I installed it a few months back I did so using http. Now however I have an SSL certificate. How can I change all URLs to make the site, site-wide SSL secure? http to https? I have tried changing the "global config" file via FTP from http to https as "base-url" however it keeps going back to http after I save and upload. Not sure what else I can do? Any thoughts? Thanks.

A couple of things I'm just curious about on how to get. 1. How do you get the online users at the bottom of the page? I see the button for it up top, but I like it when it's at the bottom of each page. 2. On my forum under the username it has the location of the person. The location is missing the " : " part of it and it's not spaced out right, any fix to this? I have inserted a pic to show what I mean

I think this is (or was?) a longs-standing issue with blocks on pages but wondering if there is a fix that maybe I've missed? I'm using a database for an iinventory. The db does not use categories. The page associated with the database uses a listing template to show all club-owned items with its current status (checked in to storage, in use by a member, etc.). I have a database feed block that shows a pared-down "quicklist" of all items that I'd like to use as a sidebar on the detail ("display") records for each item. So a person can jump directly from one item record to a different item record without having to go back to the main page. This guide on d…

Hello! I've just recently installed the forum software and theme, and everything's gone smoothly for the most part, except for a couple of things that have popped up and I don't know how to fix. The first is that when I attempt to embed videos in replies, I am given the following error. The error does not occur in initial topic posts such as this, only replies. The second is that when the spoiler tags are used around content in a post, any content beneath the close tag is also being included within the spoiler. I don't know how to solve either of these and I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Could anyone provide details on how they have their Store front and Paypal billing agreements set up? For quite some time now I've been fiddling with this and whenever I attempt to enable Billing Agreements any purchases are refused. I DO HAVE the required credentials for this but just can't get it to take.
