I've spent the last hour or so making changes to a newly created group so they can only see one of the subforums on the site. I click save, it gives me the "Saved" pop up...and then when I test the permissions, they are wrong. And when I go back into the group permissions it reverts to a helluva lot more than what I gave them. Am I missing something? Follow up question: Is there a reason why we can't give individual forum permissions to each user? For instance (and the one I'm trying above), I want to ban the user from all but one of the subforums on the board...Hiding any forum he should not be able to see. The only way I can see to do this, is to create a group, set …

I am making a custom template for database records and one of the fields is "upload" with "allow multiple uploads". The uploads are basic images and I am manipulating the content items to use the LightBox. I could not find a template tag (https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/template-tags-r76/) to give me the path to the current storage in my system. I do not want to use a fixed path in my template like "www.mysite.com/forum/uploads" because I may want to use CDN or Amazon S3 in the future and I would have to manually change all the templates of all databases that use the field "upload". So, how to get dynamically the path to the current st…

I have a square ad that was uploaded 2x the size so that it is crisp when for retina displays i am trying to figure how to resize the width or height so that on display the image is scaled the proper size? this is the code that I use to list all the square ads vertically for the sidebar. $i = 0; foreach ( new \IPS\Patterns\ActiveRecordIterator( \IPS\Db::i()->select( '*', 'core_advertisements', 'ad_active=1 AND ad_location=\'fmf_square\'', 'rand()'), 'IPS\core\Advertisement' ) as $ad ) { $i++; echo $ad ; }

Yeah, still getting used to the new version. I tried the following code: /* !Hook Data - DO NOT REMOVE */ public static function hookData() { $test_var = 'a test value'; return array_merge_recursive( array ( 'profile' => array ( 0 => array ( 'selector' => '#elProfileInfoColumn > div.ipsAreaBackground_light.ipsPad', 'type' => 'add_inside_start', 'content' => '{template="test_template" group="plugins" location="front" app="test_app" params="$test_var"}', ), ), ), parent::hookData() ); } /* End Hook Data */Well, this gives me an error saying that the variable $test_var doesn't exist. So how can I achieve th…

The customary database recordRow templates collect all fields from that record and display them with: {{if count( $row->customFieldsForDisplay('listing') )}} <div class='ipsDataItem_meta'> {{foreach $row->customFieldsForDisplay('listing') as $fieldId => $fieldValue}} {{if $fieldValue}} {$fieldValue|raw} {{endif}} {{endforeach}} </div> {{endif}} I might, though, want to place different fields in different parts of the template, rather than have them all together. We see an example of this in the Release Notes, where the Current Release tag appears in one part of the template but the Security Release one s…

I was amending a database template last night when I noticed an unexpected result on refreshing. All of the values for the name field below have custom formatting. But where the name Ian appears, the background colour for the ipsBadge no longer appeared: A check confirmed that the correct class (.ipsBadge_style12) was included in the HTML: And I confirmed that it was still included and was correctly written in the ACP's custom.css: But when I look at the custom.css file which is being downloaded, it's missing: I've tried editing its colour value and even creating a new style, but saving the changes isn't causing my custom.css file to be rebuilt. What do I nee…

I'm having issues with my master and slave installations. They're at two different domains. I tried to connect them, but later on I disconnected them again - and now I've got the issue that my users are being redirected towards the slave installation when they try to login on the master installation. Can someone please help to fix this asap?

So I'm looking at potentially going live with a transfer from XF -> IPB3 -> IPS4 to get all my data across. After reading over https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/getting-started/upgrading-from-3x-to-40-things-to-know-r136/ the question I have is whether I need to let the data do any rebuilding in IPB3 such as posts, threads etc. before attempting the upgrade from IPB3 -> IPS4?

Hi all I was wondering is there a way to add promotional banners to specific forum sections, rather than globally adding them across the forum. The reason I ask, is because I have traders that sponsor specific forum sections, so I don't want to mix other traders banners with their own. IIRC this was a feature available on Nexus 3.x? Was it removed or is there a new way of doing it? Thanks in advanced Steve

Hi, is it possible to exclude some categories from board total statistics? I have a category where RSS import posts automatically new content, and it increases posts and topics count. I'd like to esclude this category from the total count, otherwise I have to empty it after a certain period. Is there anyway to do it? Thanks Alex
