When adding TAGS to articles, forums or gallery images, they look aweful from a design point of view. They take up a lot of space (if you add many tags). So my question is.... If I already add META key words to articles, is there much point adding tags as well? And is there a way to hide TAGS from showing on the front end? So members can still add tags but the tags wont show up on the front end which would create a more aesthetically looking website. What is the whole point of tags anyway? Do they provide better Search Engine Optimisation or do they simply just allow users to search the whole website for certain key words or phrases?

I have this file "applications\abc\dev\js\admin\controllers\configuration\ips.configuration.form.js" which I load via $form = new Form('form', 'save', NULL, array('data-controller' => 'abc.admin.configuration.form')); Now I face some problems: 1. When I turn off dev mode, the file doesn't load at all. 2. Sometime it loads, but it keep showing the old cached version. 3. I compile it and then create a new version. After that, I upgrade the production with the new archive. But production doesn't load the JS at all. I have to enable dev mode in production, compile JS, and clear cache in support page several times, and then it works. Ho…

Community reputation, it only counts those thumbs up reactions. Is this a bug? Example "ha-ha" gives +1 too.

Is there a way to mark each post in the forums ? For example , we want to read every single post and check it is ok , once done it is marked as ok. I don’t want to hide posts until moderated . Does this functionality exist?

Hello guys. So when I click “next” inside a topic with 300+ replies, it usually takes more than 3+ seconds to load the destination page... my website (a forum) is pretty smooth in general. 1-2 seconds for home page, sub-forums, topic list, club etc. so is the problem related to database (MySQL) rather than hardware ( cpu, ram, Apache setting etc) ? what do you think? Thanks!

It would be possible to allow uploading remote images only to certain groups? In my case, I want to upload users images in forum images to Pages articles, putting the image url but i don´t know how to do this with the editor. Obviously, I can do this with HTML: <img alt="" src="https://www.website.com/uploads/monthly_2020_04/image_thumb_8.jpg.pl8a0cd39f43fe3dd48ae4e4a6bbb888.jpg">

In Pages, is it possible to call a block from within a Editor field? My goal here is to create the content to display, like an article, but then add a custom block call in between paragraphs to place an ad or Call To Action. Thanks, Mike

As the admin I just received a report regarding a posting. It was some comment on what I should add or edit in that posting. I then saw that this came from an unregistered guest - but guests can not write in my forum (let alone self-register), they are only supposed to read but not interact in any way. How can I stop guests from using the "report" functionility and spam me? I did not find any setting for this.

When I upload images to my forum, they are distorted, unrecognizable. Is my forum missing a PHP plugin or other software? Or is this a file system permission problem? Below is the result of two uploaded images to my forum.

A few of the members on my forum have messaged me to say they have received a message preventing them from reacting to further posts that day because they have hit a limit. I would like to increase this limit or remove the restriction altogether. Is this possible? I can't find the option in ACP thank you

I'm sure I'm overlooking something dumb, but I have two IPS servers and on one, all the cached templates are in /datastore. On the other, some are in datastore, but some are in /uploads. I don't know where the setting is to change this. -rw-rw-rw- 1 admin psacln 114331 Jan 5 20:10 template_0_46b82e53682bf97617c36aa125473bea_global.php -rw-rw-rw- 1 admin psacln 407038 Jan 5 20:10 template_0_94a9d7649fb9cdbfc784d3516e61a717_global.php -rw-rw-rw- 1 admin psacln 244393 Jan 5 20:10 template_0_c8c276c9a99811c050a8036df5d2db06_forms.php -rw-rw-rw- 1 admin psacln 133230 Jan 5 20:07 template_3_05babf262d9c3036d4373dfb8d233fa3_store.php -rw-rw-rw- 1 admin psac…

Hello all! Huge fan - long time listener, first time caller... Pretty new to customizing blocks for specific needs, and wondering if anyone can help me out here. I have a small custom block for Calendar Feed Upcoming Events to notify our Admins of any upcoming 'unban' for banned players on our game server(s), and I successfully modified permissions for it to only show for our Admins groups (or higher) and the to only events within a 3 days... But I am not sure how to modify it to not show any locked or hidden events, so that when we've unbanned a player, we can just lock the event, and it drops from being listed on the block (to save time/prevent other Admins from …

Hello, 🙂 My board has about 160 000 accounts. This makes a lot of email notifications which are sent daily by the server... and sometimes problems linked to the amount of emails sent. Is there a way to remove/delete all email notifications for all the accounts (a kind of restart from scratch) ? Thank you. 🙂

Hi I've done every step needed to be done in order to enable Redis server and Redis PHP extension on my server. However, the option is still grey-out. I am not sure what's I am missing? I am using Centos Web Panel to host this. I am using nginx -> apache -> php-fpm (version 7.4) as my web server. I have set my Php-fpm 7.4 settings to enable redis extension. I have already restarted the redis service and also restart PHP. yet this option is still grey-out. Screenshot of grey-out Redis option:
