Over 50% of our offroad users are on IOS and they upload MOV file that doesn't play in browser. Any clue/idea how to embed MOV files in IPB and play them without downloading them, just like MP4 video files.....? @Clover13 @Joy Rex @AlexWebsites have you guys found some solution? It's very disappointing and painful that we still cannot support IOS users.

We encountered this issue and opened a support request noting it as a bug. Upon adding images to a database entry, and then going to a new entry, the images remain in the editor and get appended to the next content item. Steps to reproduce: Create a database entry and upload images into the content Create a new post / database / thread entry and observe that images are retained in the editor. User must remove images from editor or they are embedded in content Expected results: Each new content item will have a cleared editor, with no previously uploaded images selected to insert.

Hello, I've got 3 questions: 1) how is is possible to change the number formating in the forum? I would like to use a dot instead of comma. Also, is it possible to display full number of replies instead of shortcut? 2) Image proxy is no longer supported in 4.5 Therefore what about old images that were downloaded using image proxy? Do they remain or they will be deleted? 3) In 4.5 background of forum categories is one color, while 4.4 and below offered 2 colors: Is it possible to make it display like that? Thanks.

As far as I understand need some php script using data from these tables 👇 for remaped id's convert_link convert_link_posts convert_link_topics Thank you for help !) @Stuart Silvester perhaps you already know how to solve this problem ? 😅

Anyone know if the current converter will accomplish this (including featured images)? Thanks for your help.

I realise the converter works with full forums and CMS's like Wordpress, but I was wondering if anyone has used it or has a suggestion (RSS import, manual copy/paste or MySQL table import, manual front-end recreation) for an old-school situation where a website has a simple news article MySQL table and HTML articles were inserted/pasted directly via phpMyAdmin, pulled from a mysql table into the pages of the front end website, used in RSS feeds etc. This is the actual InnoDB table used for news articles, it has about 450 rows: Many thanks.

I'm running the beta of the app in IOS and I'm having trouble accessing forums from the main forum list, if I click on a sub-forum from the list the app issues 'error' and closes the community. I can access threads from the main page quite ok.

Hey guys, wondering what I should do. I asked my host to make a backup of my forum database before upgrading to 4.5, but he had this to say: we noticed the following for this database:mysqldump: Error 1194: Table 'membersshop_logs' is marked as crashed and should be repaired when dumping table `membersshop_logs` at row: 633352So, you might need to fix this first then we will do the backup for the database again. Not sure what this means or what to do. Thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If I click on an image in a Gallery Category it opens in a lightbox. When I close it, it returns to the underlying page. If I comment on the image in the lightbox and then close it, the behaviour is the same - it returns to the underlying page. But, if I review the image in the lightbox and then close it, the underlying page has changed to the image's static page. Disconcerting! Is there a setting somewhere to make image reviews in lightboxes act same way as comments? Thanks for any help.

I'm trying to figure out how to embed iframe based widgets (namely Discord and Youtube Direct Lite) into a post, essentiually. Specifically the "Rules" section of a particular sub-board, which is essentially a bunch of text (or whatever you put into the editor) that shows up at the top of the sub board. I've tried adding codemirror to my ckeditor to allow source editing (for admins only of course) and pasting the iframe in source mode. That does allow me to paste the iframe in the body of the post, where it shows up as the app itself, exactly as it should in the final post. Problem is when I go to post it, nothing shows up except a blank space the size of th…
