I'm quite impressed how IPS 4.1 looks on my iPhone, don't really see the need to use Tapatalk or the like. The only thing that is annoying is that when I'm making a post, I automatically post the built in iPhone emoticons, as I'm used to that on Facebook or the like. This gives the error... "The value entered includes a character that is not allowed such as an emoji" Is there a fix for this?

Hello, When trying to set-up cron with my ISP today for the first time, I have realized that their ACP enables enter URL of the cron task only. What it means I cannot enter the unique code which is required by IPS script ..e.g. "...task.php 654354354321". Before giving up, has anyone come across similar problem, and is there any way of going around? The IPS's helpdesk say the code should be ideally triggered by the script and not as a parameter.. Thank you in advance for any advise.

Just got upgraded to 4.0 On a thread, I see the Moderation Options link. My moderators used to see this prior to the upgrade. Now it is gone. I've looked in both the Moderator Group and even my Admin group and I cannot see where it gets turned on since it obviously got turned off for the Moderators group. What am I missing here? Thanks!

Hi, I have one file with articles from previous version of my IPB. How to display it correctly on the newest version of IPB? For now, when i'm trying to open this manually, everything is broken and looks tragic. Also, how to display this with friendlyURL. Maybe, it possible to transfer it, to the new articles page, created from 0? Is there any tutorial, how to make Articles in new version around your community?

It seems the ability to vote for more than one choice is gone? I looked in admin and see nothing to "turn on". Basically, someone posted a poll where you select more than once choice in voting. Thanks!

This might sound silly, and maybe I'm missing something easy. On my own board (new install) when I quote a message, my cursor starts immediately under the quote box, which means when I type it ends up being too close, squashed up. On here, it starts a line below that, if you know what I mean. I know I can hit the Enter key, but my members aren't doing it and it looks messy. I tried to replicate it here, but won't do it, always puts a line space in...

So I finally decided to force https on my website. I added the htaccess file and changed to https in my conf global file but when I try to login to the acp it says your information is about to be sent over an insecure connection and could be read by others, do you wish to continue? So I hit continue and it just remains at the login prompt and removes my name and password What am I doing wrong?

Hi, I've imported my users from Burning Board 4.1 and upgraded to IP.S 4.1. I've agreed that users can have 5.000 conversations in the messenger, but they can't be invited to a conversation. I attached screenshot of the bug and the settings below. Is there anyone else who have this issue?
