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 :)

Does anyone have any experience getting rid of this message? I tried contacting my host and I can't remember whether they had fixed it or not. I switched to PHP 7.4 on cPanel, but it's not currently supporting ioncube and I noticed this warning again after switching back to PHP 7.3

How can I change the dimensions of the youtube videos embedded in the posts, so that they take up less than 100% width? For example a maximum width of 640 pixels.

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!

I've searched through the forums, but can not seem to find where I can change the "Sign Up" button text to something else like "Join now". Apologize in advance, as I'm sure this is easy to do - just can't find it...

Had a member account inadvertently deleted. All the blogs were lost, all the posts in the forum area remain and are orphaned to a guest member. I have found within the PHPAdmin the topic locations and can modify that location to assign the post to the newly created/reinstated account. However in the forum view the topic is still identified as orphaned until you click on the specific topic itself and are viewing the content. Once the edit is done the topic itself is linked to the new account as well. How can I do this in an easy way, or quickly? How can I get the forum view to correctly presented the topic as posted by the new user account?

Hey, I want to hide the IP address of my server in the mail header for security and DDOS protection reasons. I tried an SMTP but the server is the sender, so the IP of the server is visible on the header of the mail. The IP is visible with mail() and SMTP too. I found this trick to use a second IP but I would prefer not to see an ip in the header so that we can not identify my host, and it is preferable that I use an external solution if it's possible (in the event of an server ip blacklist, my host will close my vps). Is it possible to hide this IP or use another external method ? I am not really experienced in vps configuration, all I learned is…

I have an issue with a user who says everytime he goes to the forum, it won't let him login. So he resets the password through email, and then logs in. But process repeats the next time he visits the site. I can see all the failed login attempts and then reset password in ACP. I suspected his cookies were keeping an old password saved, but he is adamant that's not the case. Anyway didn't think much more of it, but I've now got another person saying the same thing. Any ideas or suggestions I can give them?

Hello. I switched servers last night, so I am assuming it's because of that, but users can't embed social media anymore. I tried embedding a Tweet and an IG post, but when clicking Submit, the page just reloads. If I take the social media embed out of the post, it will post the text. It seems it has to deal with embedding. Any idea why this is happening?
