I've just installed a fresh IPB4 on my localhost and would like to import my current data (database, files) from my live server, which is version 3.4.6. How would I go about doing this, aren't the database tables different in 4, and would the directory structure be the same?

Hey, support/guides/_/ips-community-suite-apps/ip-cont/raw-php-in-ipcontent-r282 This page suggests that when using a Manual PHP block, you have access to memberData. however: var_dump($this->memberData) // Produces a "Fatal Error" var_dump($this) // Returns NULL So I can only assume this documentation is out of date, Long story short, I'm also using IP.Nexus and need to check if a product has been purchased Can anybody point me in the right direction or maybe to some documentation I missed

Is there anyway we can find out what members contributed to our forum over a given period of time. For example, I'd like to know who contributed content in the last 30 days. I have looked in the Statistics area in the acp and nothing seems to fit what I need to know. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey all, I recently installed the Ckeditor 'Contextmenu' plugin. However, now I want to remove it, I can't seem to find a way to. I removed the folder from the plugins folder, but the plugin is still active. This particular plugin does not have a button either, so I can't disable it by permissions. Help?

Hi guys, I updated this night from 3.4.8 to 4.0.12. In the old Forum I had a mobile skin with a different analytics code from the desktop one. How could I set the new (and single) skin to load different scripts if the user is on desktop or mobile (phone and tablet)? I tried with <code><div class="ipsClearfix ipsResponsive_showDesktop ipsResponsive_hideTablet ipsResponsive_hidePhone"></code> But it does not work Thanks!
