So I've thought of using IPSs oauth system to authenticate users in an external web app. However in my last attempt to do it I ended up with the web app generating a new access token everytime a user signed in. Is that the behaviour I should expect or is there any way to get around it as it would be annoying to look at 100+ authentications tokens per user of the app. If it helps in getting a more precise answer, then I'm planning on using Laravel with its socialite package.

Let me start by saying I have pretty much no idea what I'm doing ha ha I have a forum (well two forums actually and both have this issue) where I've just checked the database tables in PHPMyadmin to see if they were InnoDB or MyISAM. On both of the forums I've found that the database tables are half and half amazingly. I have a sneaky suspicion it's something I've made a mess of a while back. The site's function with occasional glitches but to a total newbie like me on this subject I'd not know if this was having any impact. Anyway should I leave well alone or should I change all the tables to InnoDB? And will I see any difference in the way the sites are…

Hello, Maybe a dumb question but I'm trying to organize a fairly large forum (5+ million posts). I do not want to archive older topics, since this means they are no longer searchable. Also as mentioned by IPS, its not such a big deal anymore with the advancements made with the forum software and MySQL. I'm mainly doing this because our forum is pretty old and we've only hosted uploads for the last couple years. As such we have a lot of topics with broken images with no solution to fix. The conversation / posts still hold value, so I would rather not delete and do now want to archive as they'd no longer be searchable. So my solution is to create an 'archive' category …

I'm working with someone who I want to be able to post on the forum, but he's having issues registering. Someone who has been giving me tech guidance thinks the system has flagged his IP address as a spammer. Can I somehow tell the system to trust his IP address so he can register?

Hey all, I have a forum which is football based. I use Adsense for income. On the site there's the football stuff which google crawls, indexes and is searchable on Google etc Adsense also places adverts on there with no issue I also have another section where the members talk about music, jobs, general news and non football stuff. Google doesn't crawl this, doesn't index it, and it's not searchable or visible to anyone visiting the site who isn't logged in. I want to place Adsense ads on there so I created a login for Adsense, and put the hidden forum section URL into Adsense for it to crawl and then advertise on. I don't want Google to index this o…

Hello, I have a problem with spacing under quotes. Yes, I know that there is an option in settings that will make spacing, but the problem is if I turn on that option, then EVERY sentence has spacing between and that doesn't look good and none of my forum members like it (neither do I). Is there any way that I can turn on spacing ONLY after quotes? Because hundreds of thousands messages with quotes now look like this:

Currently a group name is a required field, which is fine for the back end, but I would like to hide the group name from actually showing up on the board. Is this possible to do? For instance, the Moderators group is "Moderators", I would like to use a custom image that stands out more, which says "Moderators", I can easily add this, but then there is the word "Moderators" in text right above the custom image that says "Moderators". If anyone can tell me how to disable the display of group names on the board, I would really appreciate it.

We have a moderator only topic that we have been 'printing' and saving to a file for years. After a recent upgrade (not sure if it was the last one... may have been earlier) the 'Print Topic' option seems to have disappeared. Does anyone know how we get a topic into 'printable' (we print it to pdf and save) version? Would appreciate any help :)

Hey guys! Hope everyone is well! I'm working on a theme for my website and I'm struggling with adding a custom profile field to the postContainer template. I know the code for custom fields in Pages is this {{if $record->field_51}} {$record->customFieldDisplayByKey('key', 'listing')|raw} {{endif}} What would be the equivalent for this code for custom profile fields? Thanks in advance!
