Hi Guys, we have some people who abuse the star ratings feature by leaving 1 star ratings for articles by people they don't like. I'd like to know who the users leaving these ratings are. Is this possible?

So I have managed to get my twitter promote thing working. So when you create a new topic on my site you can click one button and POOF it appears on Twitter. Does anyone have a good tutorial on how to get that to work with Facebook. I tried all day yesterday and could not get it to work. Remember I am a Hot Air Balloon Pilot, NOT a developer so instructions must be in English and explained like I don't know what I am doing since that is the case. Capt Jeff HotAirBalloonist.com Thank you!

Hello everyone, After looking through support tickets we have several users report to us on occasion that they have an error message that says "Sorry, you aren't permitted to download this file.". We do not have any restrictions enabled on the site for downloads. The error goes away eventually after logging in and out (sometimes waiting 20-30 minutes). Nothing alerting in Error Logs or System Logs. Any idea on what could be causing this? Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/E82NngC.png Kind regards, Ray

What could be causing my emoji selector window to open and populate super slow? It only seems to happen with the Twitter style Emoji...when I set it to Native style, it populates much faster. I can just stick with native style but I wonder what is causing he issue with Twitter style?

I want to be able, just one time, merge 2 users without deleting one of them. Another way of looking at it is I want to move all the posts from one user to another user. Is there an easy way to do this? Do I comment out some code in a core file to stop the deletion, merge the 2 users and then restore the core code and if so what code and where? Any other thoughts on how I could achieve this...thanks for any help

Good day, Please forgive me if this is the wrong area to post thing. As of late, we've been seeing an uptick in users reporting to us that their downloads get to something like 70% and then will fail with a 'Error - Forbidden' message from their web browser and when they try to get the file again, the site tells them that they don't have permission to download the file. This used to be a rare occurrence, but it's been picking up (with 4 reports in the last 3 days) and our usual advice to users was to log out, clear cache/cookies, and log back in. Which we assume fixed their issue as we'd never hear back from them, despite us asking to provide a link to the file(…

Is it possible to change the color of the header of a featured post so that it matches the headers of the Forum Categories? I'd like for the featured topic "TOPICS" to have the same green gradient as the rest of the forums. Is that possible? I've poured through the guides but I'm not able to find anything.

I'd love to change the "REQUIRED" text at the top, by the title, to say "Please Use Title Case," but when I added that text to the template I found with ipsFieldRow_required it puts the text I added in both places. How can I get the text to appear in just the top one, by the Title? Thank you!

There appears to be a bug if the following conditions are met: You have signature images restricted to a certain pixel dimension The user tried to edit their signature using an image with BBCode like: [URL=https://linktourl.com][IMG]https://linktoimage.png[/IMG][/URL] The user will get an error "Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions for" and won't let them save since the forum can't validate that the image is within the guidelines (even if the image does fall with the restricted dimensions). We had this issue on our forum and googling "Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions for" I found several others with the same issue. The only way w…
