So I have added a block to the profiles that will show on the signup form that requires the user to upload a file. I want to set that up to go to a specific file on the server. I created the folder and went to storage settings and set "custom profile fields" to go to that folder, but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

I have set permissions for guests to view events on my calendars. HOWEVER.. I want to prevent them from clicking on an event to get the full details. Is this possible at all? If I prevent guests from seeing the events on the calendars it all looks very bare/empty which isn't a great incentive to register. Best they can at least see a nice full events calendar yet not be able to get any more information until they have registered. ( unless you have other thoughts on the matter) thanks if you can chip in

My forum is fairly small by most standards, just over 86k posts and 4,500 members, and I'd like to upgrade to 4.0 now that its been out a while. The checker looks OK: http://screencast.com/t/NlzZErR4 I have the skin back to the default, without any additional add-ons that are not supported. So the instructions look simple ... this link says to just upload the files and, I guess, just overwrite the 3.x files and run the upgrade. Is it really that simple? Somewhere I saw a method to move files into another folder and run a test on that, but that doesn't seem like it would work, as the paths would be incorrect. How has upgrading gone for you guys?

Hello, Is it possible in IPB to create forums without having to have a Category? So to have the ability to simply display the forums on the main forum page standalone. Thanks,

Hi, I'm looking for a IP.Nexus getting started guide before I'm buying it. Reason is I fear it will be technically way over my head to setup a payment system with Paypal for example. Have been looking around but either the links are dead http://community.inv...rted-guide-r514 from support.guides/effectively-utilising-nexus-subscriptions-r257 or I cannot get access to it like invisionpower.com/topic/331496-step-by-step-instructions-for-setting-up-nexus-subsrciptions/ Or if there aren't any guides, how difficult is it because stuff like on support/guides/_/advanced-and-developers/ipnexus/how-to-create-your-own-payment-gateway-r129 *is* way …

I'm on version 4.1.7. I have added an 'images' field to one of my databases, which allows users to upload multiple images to a record. I have encountered a strange quirk when working with multiple upload fields that are empty. When pulling the data from the 'images' field using something like $record->customFieldDisplayByKey('images', 'raw'); , you get an array containing the URL objects of the images. So when pulling the data from a record that has an empty 'images' field, one would expect to get an empty array. This is, however, not the case. If I do a var_dump of an empty 'images' field, this is what I get: array (size=1) 0 => object(IPS\Http\U…

It would seem that when I log into my account on my site it puts my sidebar at the bottom of the page as seen here: Now when I log out of the site it puts it back to normal. I can't seem to find a setting for this or maybe something is just messed up? Any help would be great!

Hi there, i have a problem, dont know if i do anything wrong or misunderstand the configuration. My goal is to implement an application page where people can create applications to join our clan.

The settings in AdminCP > Members > Groups > Members > Edit > Social > Messages are supposed to limit how many PRIVATE messages they can make but apparently it's affecting how many posts on the regular forum messages as well. Anyone else experience this? I wanted to put PM limits in place because spammers are using that to spam everyone's inboxes.

Hello, I am currently upgrading from an old 2.3.x release to something newer (version 3.4.9), to jump then to the latest release ( as it is impossible to upgrade directly from 2.x branch to 4.x) and I got this problem with <{POST_SNAPBACK}> in place of old quotes in posts. So, currently I have 3.4.9 and can not fix old quotes, despite I ran all from "Recount and rebuild" section of ACP. I found some similar reports here, and it was said there is a script that fixes this problem, but there was no public solution provided to solve this issue. Is this fix exists? Can I get one? Thank you
