Hello, Is there a shortcut for opening the link dialog in the editor? In the accessibility documentation for CKEditor it says Ctrl+L, but that doesn't do anything here.

I'm trying to create a query which will display the items we have for sale, the descriptions, the stock count, and so on. One of the challenges I have is that the site has two languages, so if I want the name of a product, I have to look in core_sys_lang_words: SELECT p_id AS ID, word_custom AS Title, word_custom AS Description, p_group AS Category, p_stock AS Stock, p_store AS 'In Store', GBP AS Price, p_discounts AS Discounts, from_unixtime(p_date_added, '%Y-%d-%m') AS Added, from_unixtime(p_date_updated, '%Y-%d-%m') AS Updated FROM nexus_packages as np LEFT JOIN core_sys_lang_words as lang ON lang.lang_id=1 AND lang.word_key=CONCAT('nexus_package_', np.p_id)…

Post conversion, I have a few users who cannot login because they've forgotten their password. I tell them to use the reset option but apparently no email comes through. So I just tried the option myself in the admin control panel and get the error: 2C114/13 This user is not currently using a login handler that uses a password. Is it not possible to reset a users password post conversion until after they've logged in? Or I am missing something.

HI everyone, I have a question around how to properly write the logic for a translation string. Tricky one. Possibly impossible. It's this one: user_other_activity_reply The English one is : %2$s replied to %3$s's %1$s in - it will parse into "X replied to Y's topic in" In German it's more difficult. We don't use the apostophe-s - we either simply add the s at the end of the word, OR, if there is already an s at the end, we then add an apostrophe, to indicate the omitting of the last s. So instead of John's we write Johns - and instead of James's we write James'. (I guess the above string would translate into "James's" which to my knowledge is actuall…

Hi everyone, maybe I'm blind (again), but I can't seem to find an option for users (not guests) to click on "Like" below a posting. There's only an option for questions and rating them as helpful or not, which is not why I am looking for. I've seen this in other forums based on this software. People can click on the like button below a posting, there is a counter next to it and you can also see who as liked (pretty much like in FB). Is there no such thing, or does this require a plugin which I also did not find?

In my older forum I had added some custom BBCode to the BBCode parser as well as a custom icon to the editor. Now, even if I turn on BBCode parsing, there does not seem to be any option to add custom BBCode anywhere. So probably I would need to edit some files. Where would I find this?

I noticed that the list of who is online in the footer and even the full listing of who is online and what they are currently looking at is visible also for guests. This needs to be turned off, as this is of no concern for non-members. How can I turn that off? Also, the listing header in the footer mentions "0 anonymous", which is a problem, as this functionality is not even available in my forum and should not - hence this mention will raise questions with the members. Where can I remove this?

And the following appears after I believe to have transferred the files using FileZilla and was trying to enter admin CP How bad did I mess up.... For backstory, I was forced to upgrade manually because my former forum co-owner disappeared years ago with the license, e-mails and what not, so I was forced to purchase the software all over again and I'm upgrading from really old software. I tried to google walk through and thought to find one, but I don't know what went wrong. Can someone please help me, I'm stressed out and just hoping I haven't lost all the forum posts and stuff like that.

I would like to add placeholder attributes to the registration form as members constantly enter the wrong information in the custom fields. I am talking about the greyed out wording in the form boxes that stays there until the user enters their text. Can anyone tell me where to enter the placeholder html code for the custom fields? <input type="text" name="fname" placeholder="First name"><br> <input type="text" name="lname" placeholder="Last name"><br> Thanks

Hi everyone, some of my users report they get an "cannot decode raw data" error when they try to access my new 4.5 forum with their iPhone. It works perfectly on my iPhone, though. Does anyone know what might be causing this issue and what recommendation I can give to my users?

In the past few days I've started seeing AdminCP notifications pop up about individual non-running (delayed) maintenance tasks. They eventually do run, everything seems to be working correctly (using cron), so my question is: How do I switch off these notifications regarding tasks (or set them to be more tolerant so they don't appear or don't appear as often)? Many thanks for any advice.

So I have the up to date software installed and I'm trying to set up social sign in via Twitter. I entered everything correctly in the admin panel I believe (entered the correct key and what not), but when I attempt to test to connect my Twitter and test the sign in, it says "Something went wrong. Please try again."
