I'm trying to make my application load some javascript/CSS if my custom template tag is used. Here is my output plugin code: public static function runPlugin( $data, $options ) { foreach( \IPS\Output::i()->js( 'front_browse.js', 'myapp', 'front' ) as $url ){ \IPS\Output::i()->endBodyCode .= "<script type='text/javascript' src='".$url."'></script>"; } array_merge( \IPS\Output::i()->cssFiles, \IPS\Theme::i()->css("myappDefault.css", "myapp", "front")); return '\IPS\Theme::i()->getTemplate( "browse", "myapp", "front" )->myAppTemplate( "'.$data.'" )'; } On my dev install, this works perfectly, but when I move it to the live s…

Uploaded 4 images to my gallery... smallest was about 2.1 MB, largest about 3.6MB 2448x3264 (iPhone) or 3264x2448 (iPhone) - depending on landscape or not. My group setting for my profile is unlimited on file sizes, etc. After 5 minutes, the screen is still on this and no error logs shown. Anybody else have a similar issue with the Gallery?

Hi everyone, Today I noticed that one of the posts contained the following html code: <div> <div style="margin-left:695px;margin-top:176px;"> <div title="Protected by Grammarly"> </div> </div> </div> which shouldn't be possible because I have pasting formatted text and adding html code disabled. Any ideas what this could be?

I just took over a board hosted on Invision Power, but the domain is held by GoDaddy. So now I need to create an email to manage the forum, and would like to have a domain email. I don't know how to create an email address, or where/how to access it. Attempting to create something at GoDaddy, they need to connect to the host, and I can't figure that out. Does IP even host email? And if so how do I access it?

A few weeks ago, I temporarily transferred the domain to the invisionpower domain, but I need to change it now. How do I change the primary domain from a domain provided by Invision Power (deltagaming.invisionzone.com) to my own domain. If it helps a little, I purchased this domain through Google Domains a few months ago.

In our current Sphinx setup we use a charset_table to make sure that accented characters map to their non-accented equivalents when doing a search (for example, searching for "brûlée" gives the same results as searching for "brulee"). How is this done now that we can't use Sphinx? Second, how do we configure out site/database so that other non-Latin searches work correctly? Right now, for example, a search of our site for "肉骨菜" yields no results (it should). The same is true for things like ก๋วยเตี๋ยวผัดขี้เมาไก่ and Tôm sốt cà chua. While we are an English-language site, many culinary terms are expressed in other languages, so I'd like those searches to work.

Is there a way to select and delete more than one member simultaneously? I would like to remove old/dormant forum members, I can find them using advanced search. The only way to delete that I can see is using the drop down menu that appears at the right of the searched list. Using this method takes me back to the member list each time so I have to either record a list of members to remove or search again.

As of the 1st of the month, for some reason my server is unable to reach invision services, every time I put in my license number I get this error; " There was an error communicating with the IPS License Server: name lookup timed out. Please try again later or contact IPS technical support for assistance. " I've contacted support, they apparently can't reach or access my site, and it's only them, none of my customer base has any issue accessing my site or services. Also, commerce can't access PayPal to direct payments/invoices to them. I'm not sure if this is related. Support stated it's probably my firewall, I've look to the best of my knowledge a…

I want to create a dropdown link on the menu that open the sublinks on the secondary nav bar, just like "Browse", "Activity", "Marketplace" and "IPS 4 Resources". On the menu manager in the AdminCP we have only 4 options: Activity Stream Item Pages Drop-down menu External Link None of those allow me to create the menu that I want, just like in IPS 4 menu, as mentioned above. Before 4.1.3, I was using drop-down menu, and the sublinks were shown as drop-down menu and also in the secondary nav bar. After 4.1.3, the secondary nav bar looks empty and only the drop-down menu is shown. What I am missing?

Alright.... so how do we do this? I would hate to have to make a whole bunch of if statements to display a custom form for a pages database but there is literally no documentation on how to get specific fields to show to be able to make them more cutomizable. What I'm looking to do is condense a few of my forms to show certain fields in the same "section" instead of having all of the fields show up with their own custom area. The problem is the only data I can find is: {$input|raw} When I print the output it comes up with all the data I need but there is no explanation on how to get it to format appropriately. Anyone have any advice on a custom form to make it…

IPS adds a copyright link to every page of the communities. To better SEO, I would like to add a "nofollow" directive to the link. I don't want to remove the link, only add the "nofollow"meta tag for SEO purposes. I have tried to search the code on the template, but could not find it. I guess it's hard embedded on php code. Anyone has tried the same thing? Thanks.

I'm attempting to add some click-to-insert functionality to the editor in 4.1, and I can't seem to find the proper combination of functions to insert and format an image. I could just insert the <img> tag myself, but then I miss out on the thumbnailing/lightboxing that happens when someone inserts an image by hand. Is there an easy way to tell the editor to parse new content (if I were to just insert the URL), or to pre-process a URL in the same way that CKEditor does it?

I am trying to turn on the Rewrite URLs feature in System >> Search Engine Optimization >> Friendy URLs. My site already has two .htaccess files: 1) In the site's root directory. This is the main .htaccess file which I am modifying. 2) In the [root]/wordpress/ directory which is necessary for the wordpress blog I have located on my site. I am not modifying this. The problem is, when I paste the required code into the root .htaccess file, everything works but my wordpress URLs become broken. How do make sure that the wordpress .htaccess file is unaffected? Here is the htaccess code I'm pasting in: IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Optio…

Just bought my new domain name and want to add it so it can be used. I can't find where to change this in the admincp section... Once signed in I only have the options of the left side where I can't find anything about it. I do not have any other menus in my admincp. There should be a redirect thing some where but I can't seem to find it. Is this doable yourself or do you gotta put in a ticket to have it done and wait a week before someone even gets back with you about it? If someone could point me in the right place in the admincp to do this myself, I would be very thankful..
