I'm trying to follow these directions, but the WordPress plugin has changed a bit since they were written: Part of the setup for the miniOrange plugin is filling in the Username attribute name. What is it? My guess is "name"? Or maybe "formattedName"? Appreciate any help.

Hey friends, question for you. We have a custom built website, and we'd like to add it as a sort to our IP through the pages system. Would we have to manually add everything or is there a way to essentially upload the entire site as a whole?

Hi! Within the last year, we upgraded from v2.x to 4.9, and noticed that when we delete members, their ip addresses are no longer associated with their posts on board. Does anyone know if there is a setting or plugin that allows this? We are an rpg site, and admins use the ip addresses to see which accounts (past or present) belong to which person. Any help is appreciated!

Hi folks, I'm running my first Commerce promotion with a 40% off coupon code and when I tested it, it appeared to reduce the price correctly and showed fine in the basket. I'm being told that although it's set for anyone group to use, and it can be used unlimited times but only once per member, a member is saying a message pops up saying no such code exists. Has any one else had any similar reports? Many thanks.

Hey all, I ran across this error just recently. Logins aren't working, no matter which account. Not sure why, but we do use the API to add or remove subs based on our payment system updates. At any rate, I can't log in to the board as myself, or admin. The board is still functional for viewing, as long as you don't try to log in. The databases core_members looks intact, but it's been a while since I've had to get my hands dirty troubleshooting IPS. The only log I know of is the apache2 log for the IPS web service, and it's spewing a bunch of strange errors (/var/www/forumpost.php not found...which doesn't even appear to be a part of this IPS distro, as it's…

I have just sent a bulk e-mail to my members and I discovered afterwards, that it was sent twice to each member. I am trying to find out what could have possibly caused this. I am sure I did not press "resend" . It's the second time this happens. It did happen when sending the very first bulk mail as well. I used the standard setting = all members get an e-mail regardless of their number of posts etc... I also run a staging environment on a subdomain based on a separate database. But I cannot imagine, the system would use this installation for sending mails as it is a totally separate instance of IPB. Any idea why mails are sent twice? Thanks!

Hello! I'm puzzling through what seems to me to be counter-intuitive behavior. We're using the Downloads module, trying to get it set up with employment forms & whatnot. In many cases, there is a good reason to keep the old versions accessible with some effort. But in every case I've seen we only want to offer the most recent version of the file when someone clicks the big "download button". But the current behavior doesn't match this - instead, every version of the file is presented to the user to choose the one they want to download. I would greatly prefer that the user not see the old versions unless they click through the version history specifically…

Dear folks, is there a way to hide a donation goal? At this point, if I have a campaign, and the campaign is terminated, like our annual Christmas fund raiser, I want to hide the goal and use it again next year. Because I have a standard donation goal that is up all year long to help fund our forum community. I don't like how at this point, I see both donation goals. I'd like to hide one. Thanks for any help John

When receiving a personal message in an ongoing message [more than one page] clicking the notification takes me to the first page of the multi page messages rather than either the message received or the last message. Is there anyway to take the person to the message received or last page of the message in a multi page message?

I would just like some help on how can i change or set the forums social media logo, everytime i share the community forums link, my forum profile's display picture is used as the thumbnail. I've looked all through the AdminCP and i can't seem to find the setting. Thank you. Just looked into "Meta Tags" a bit more and site map, So my meta setting is on "https://xtgcommunity.net/forums/ " and left the page address blank. Does this mean that the meta data will generate a picture and random description from the forum board? When i share the link on Facebook, my display picture is used as the thumbnail and a random thread is used as the description which…

After configuring a big part of my installation I noticed that dates do not show correctly anymore. The calendar also shows an error that a non valid date has been chosen? A reinstall fixes this problem but I would like to know the cause of it, as it could happen in the future.

As is now the widget on profiles shows only the last five profile visitors. Is there a way to increase the number to display? I'd like our members to be able to see at the least the last 50 visitors. Perhaps a click to show more a page that shows a more complete list?

When using Twitter emoji, it seems that the emoji selector has to reload every image every time, at a ridiculously slow rate. Is this just something with our configuration or is this the norm?

Hi: I tried to upgrade my forum yesterday. Long story short, as soon as I upgraded to suggested versions php 7.1.0 and MySQL 5.6.2, I could no longer access my forum/admin and therefore couldn't perform the upgrade. I tried to solve the problem for hours, and finally gave up. So, I reverted back to my PHP 5.6.31 and MYSQL 5.1.73 (it was functioning prior to), so at least I could get my forum back up and running. No luck. What could I be missing? Everything looks like it's fine on my Windows Server 2012R2. MySQL shows it is accessing the database. However when I try to pull up my page, I get a 500 internal server error. http://www.6thcorpscombatengineers.com/engforu…
