Is there a way to restrict content to non members such as links? You know like the "comment to unlock" plugins.

Recently upgraded to 4.5 a couple of days ago with no issues and today I happened to notice two sections are now showing "No posts here yet". Users can go in to the sections and see posts fine but the latest posts are not showing up on the main forum page. This happens with different users, themes and browsers. I've looked around at permissions on these two and didn't see anything unusual and I haven't made any changes to them. Anyone have this happen or might know where I can look ?

Hola! So I just updated to the latest version of IPS. I'm not sure if I'll experience more bugs, but I noticed something immediately. When I try to change an image size in a topic, it doesn't update. I made a video so it'll make more sense. I change image sizes to 0 pixels so it "hides" it. I need an image uploaded to the OP because it's the featured image on my homepage, but I don't necessarily want to show the thumbnail in the topic. Check this out. It just ignores the rule and keeps the image in. Thoughts? https://streamable.com/c2jb0f

In the statistics section of the ACP, there are all sorts of stats. Some more useful and some less so. However, there is the "Online Users" stat, that in my opinion (when cross-referenced with other stats) is one of the more important ones to know how your community is doing. Sadly, while more of the statistics can be viewed by multiple time divisions (I just realized I don't know the English word for that, if there is one) like day, week month etc. But the Online users stats can only be shown by what I gather to be 15min chunks. That's kind of ridiculous/pointless, and if I can hazard a guess, kinda lazy, since I'm guessing it just counts sessions and vomits them to this…

Hey all, I have a question about posts in my forum. When I wrap code around text that is in a list format, the text list appears very long. Previously, the text list wrapped in the code wrap would change to a box that you could then scroll the text within it, now, when I make a post, the list goes down the whole post rather than just having a text box that I can scroll up and down within the post, effectively making the overall size of the post stay a normal size rather than taking up a huge amount of space. Does anyone know how to remedy this? For example, this is what is happening: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R ST U V W X Y Z …

Hi folks, I'm hoping to exclude Administrators from the 'Popular Contributors' widget. Is there an easy way to do this? I tried Google'ing and couldn't find an answer, and the template looks like it would take some time to figure out given my skill level. Thanks in advance

Last online seems to be missing on some member profiles, I've noticed it happens here too, @ahcfor example. I don't think it's because they are using anonymous mode. Could there be any other reason for it?

We have recently migrated from vbulletin to ipb. I struggle to migrate some of the custom solutions we had working with vbulletin. One of them was a robot that would crawl the threads in vbulletin database and flag those that potentially violate adsense TOS so we don't serve adsense on those threads. There was an extra field in threads/topics database and looking into the value the page could decide if adsense should be served or not. In IPB where I can add this custom db field to make its value accessible in topics template? I mean I could go ahead and add it to the topics table, but how do I fetch the value in the template. I see the topics ta…

Hello, I just opened a ticket because we have encountered a problem since this morning (everything worked yesterday) it seems that our license key is no longer recognized even though we are up to date with payments. When we try to update the license information, this message is displayed " The CSRF protection key did not match. This may indicate a plugin or theme is out of date. Please contact technical support for more information." and replacing it, ipb tells us that it does not exist? Similar problems today? Does IPB verify the license key on a particular port of the server? Thank you Kims
