We recently upgraded a small community from IPS 3.4.6 to 4.4.10, and we've been mostly happy with the changes, but there seems to be a major problem with the notifications system. It seemed to work correctly for the first ~3 days, but since then (about a week ago) I haven't received a single notification icon or email for my followed topics. I don't know if it's affecting the entire community or not - I can see that there are emails repeatedly being sent from the server to some users, so I assume that some people are getting their normal subscription emails and I haven't received any support messages about the problem yet. However, I've spoken directly with a couple of me…

Is there a built in variable/placeholder that can be used to insert the body of content issued a warning by a moderator? This was a feature in vBulletin and we'd like to bring it back for IPS. I see that default messages can be included to the member, yet am looking for something like {content_body} or similar. I.e. you posted: {content_body}, even if this change is made at the template level and is universally used for all issued warnings.

I have a Club that is set to Open and in the ACP Clubs Settings I have set: this is so any content that is posted in a Club remains just within the Club and not elsewhere on the site. However, Images that are added to the Club are shown in the gallery...is this right or is there a bug in the "Only within Clubs" setting? (Note: I have changed the language in my install from Club to Group in the above screen shot)

What happens if members have legacy points, say 9 points, and I make a new action that bans people for say 5 warning points? I assume there isn't a retroactive crawl through the database that searches for every member with 5 or more points and bans them. Correct? Is the new action only activated on subsequent points?

Good evening! I was wondering if there are any plugins or applications for IPB that perform a URL "unfurl" function similar to XenForo's as described in this post; https://xenforo.com/community/threads/unfurling-urls-emoji-enhancements-and-video-uploads.154986/post-1289239 I'm aware of External Links Rich Embed from the Marketplace, but I was wondering if there is a more "elegant" solution available. Thank you very much! Regards, Wade

It doesn't look like the "log in anonymously" option is still even available at log in, and I haven't seen it there for quite a while. I think I was logged in anonymously when I upgraded to the version that did away with it. Now every time I log in I'm logged in anonymously and I can't figure out how to get around it XD

Is it possible to create member tasks? In essence like a to-do list for all members, where they can login and see the list, marking off once things have been done. I'd be able to see who's completed what at lower (phil did x) and higher level (x% completed section y). I am not seeing any plugins at the moment for this but would love to hear people's thoughts. Thanks, George

Hi everyone, i am setting up a new community with 4.5.3. For some reason, the default theme is not assigning a ipsNavBar_active class to the active <li> element of menu. Being so, i cannot style it accordingly because it is not known what is the menu item that is active. This happens also with the default theme. While i notice that in IPS site it works ok, other communities that i have (have not yet upgraded to 4.5.3) are working good. Do you have the same problem?
