Hi is it safe to remove the orig_ tables from the database after the upgrade? I noticed it backed up these tables and renamed them which is quite cool as a back up, but now would like to remove them to reduce size of databases. cheers

As the title suggest, I'm having trouble setting up my Email. But before I make a ticket, I thought I'd try here. I've tried using both my original gmail and my new google apps account for my domain. When I try PHP I get the error "email could not be sent" - when I try SMTP I get "Connection refused". If I disable my firewall I get the same result. Any advice or ideas for troubleshooting?

Just got upgraded to 4.0. All of my members signatures disappeared! I don't get why they would even remotely happen for the upgrade. If I had signatures ON they they should have carried over via the upgrade. Thanks.

I have a script that checks if the user is the the group guest (not logged in at all) or members and allow access only to members to the page. However you can access the page as soon as you have registered, you don't even have to confirm your email (we even have manual validation on), so I was wondering if there is a way to check if the account is verified and then deny access. <?php // Initialize IPS4 Framework require_once( '../init.php' ); require_once( '../conf_global.php' ); require_once( 'pnum.php' ); // Indicate that we should consider this a front-end session so we can obtain the currently logged in users information. \IPS\Session\Front::i(); // Grab th…

Could somebody please take a look at my site? www.kartreview.co.uk. For some reason if I use my modified skin, Profile pictures do not show for some users.. If i switch to the default skin they work fine. I don't think I have altered the code for profile pictures and recently went through an upgrade and didn't notice any changes to the code. Maybe i have missed an update to the skin files? Thanks.

Hi, I'm not 100% sure, but I think that my Moderation Queue jest bugged. It works backwards. 2 things are possible: I didn't have everything moderated properly or it is just bugged. But this second one is more possible I think. I'm digging in Admin CP and I can't find anything to configure Moderation Queue - where is it?

Hello, We set up our forums a few months ago and one of our registered users has not been able to log in since first registering. Initially, she was having issues with Safari where once she clicked on "I am not a robot" the screen hung up and would not let her select the "accept terms" box to finish the registration. When she used FireFox, she was able to get further and complete the registration but she never received a validation e-mail. I ended up going into the AdminCP and validating her account after she tried to "resend confirmation email" a few times and never received any e-mails. Now, she has tried to connect to our forums and instantly received an err…

There is a basic option to create a new topic in the forums, every time a new record is added to the database. By default, the field labeled "content" in the database is the only field that is posted into the new topic on the forums. How would I go about deciding which record fields show up in the forum post? For example, I'd love for the forum topic to include only the database/record field called "teaser" with the read more link - as opposed to the fully story.

Super annoying menu manager bug: I remove the all of the menus from the Menu manager (I'm using a custom navbar and don't want anything from IPS's menu manager there). So I delete both menus/their children menus. "Publish this menu". Then, I wake up the next morning, and the menu is back. Again, I have to go in and delete the menu. I also notice upon updating the Forum application it automatically adds the default menus even though I deleted them.

This seems to have happened after the last update. Users can add items to the cart but cannot proceed at Shipping. The Continue to Order Review > button is no longer clickable. You are basically stuck here. I have not made any changes to store or payment settings. Any suggestions?

We recently did a test migration from vBulletin 4.2.2 to IP 4.1.5.2, which we were able to complete successfully as far as we can tell. We are now trying to update to the latest version 4.1.8. However, when running the upgrade, it will stop at "Cleaning up tags (Converted so far: 0 out of 0)" and no further progress is made. This was tested on different computers and browsers. We also tried to start the upgrade from the beginning but still face the same behavior. Help regarding this matter is much appreciated.
