Hello, 🙂 Some guests try to post using the "Join conversation" option. But they use a false email address and don't create any account. Then my board sends a "Did you forget to submit your content?" email reminder to this false address and I get an email saying : Is there a way to stop my board from sending emails to guests ? Thank you. 🙂

We have a user set up to receive emails for subscribed forums. It will send a notification to that email which will then send a message to a Slack channel which is attached to that email. It's working fine if there's a new post in one of those forums, however, when someone comments on one of those posts, it doesn't notify the slack channel. I have learned this is because that user would need to be auto-subscribed to each of the new postings in each forum. Is there a plugin that will subscribe a user to each new posting in a forum? Also, can we retroactively subscribe that user to ALL postings in each of the forums? Thank you.

Hey guys and gals. So for some reason Guests are able to "start topics" in forums that I've already set permissions for and Guests only (according to the permissions mask in ACP) have permission to view the forum and read threads. How do I completely disable/disallow Guests from starting threads in forums?

Hello. I have one of my application, which have this method: As you can see my PhpStorm asks me to cast the array into the string, because of \IPS\Output::i()->json method wait string type as the first param. But this is not true. This method (and json_encode function in order) accept an array as the primary usual incoming type. That fact that we can run json_encode('test') and got "test" as valid JSON result is just one behavior that is out if the usual scope for JSON using. Another part of this method that we use 'return $this->sendOuput...' but this method doesn't return anything. So we can just use $this->sendOutput without return a…

MEMBER is now a reserved word which breaks a bunch of queries involving columns named member. Why anyone thought that was a good idea to include in a patch release I have no idea. Only way to fix right now (without finding all the instances of queries involving member and quoting them with backticks) is to dump all your tables and downgrade to 8.0.16. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/8.0/en/news-8-0-17.html#mysqld-8-0-17-feature

Hi everyone, I tried moving my site of the original server which is Nginx and not apache and immediately I got fURL redirection problems. I had these set up by former admin when I was on 3.4 and it was working great. But now in 4.0 its not working. Is it true that these values for rewrite to work must be edited in etc/nginx/sites-available/website.com.vhost file alone. Nowhere else? In my case I use IPSconfig and you can add entries in website options. But I think these values end up in the same files anyway. What configuration has to be in the file for 4.4 IPS version to function and redirect properly? So far I tried putting location / { …

In version 4, is there a way to show the "guests" that are actually spiders as their "Spiderbot names" (google, yahoo, etc) rather than just "guest"? Thank you in advance.

Hello, I'm looking for advice, hope you can help me out. I'm trying to create my main homepage with blocks. but thing is I'm forced to choose a default app for that. And when I do I'm forced to have some sort of central element of the chosen app on the homepage which I don't really need. Apps have their own related pages. I wish to have a mainpage which is simply composed of various widgets that I place myself. how can this be done?

How can I show my users the notifications they received on the forum, directly on the site? Unfortunately there are no APIs that allow it, and in "core_notifications" it is complex to get the elements, so I asked if there was a function.

I've noticed that HTML notification emails being sent from my forum are double-spaced in terms of newlines. Is there a way to fix this? It makes the emails look a bit sloppy. I have my Return Key Behavior set to "Go To Next Line", as my nearly 4.5 million posts converted from 3.4.8 looked just like these emails before changing that setting. Looks like the email generator isn't honoring that setting. Thanks in advance for any insight. ..Al

There a little bug in the index page blocks on the marketplace when the files name is truncated and there is the unread pin you can see in the image it sends it below the pin, its the same on all blocks ( pretty sure they use the same template anyway ) Adding ipsPos_left to the span class of the <span class="ipsItemStatus ipsItemStatus_small"> does the trick

Our forum has been going for 14+ years, the uploads folder has 75,000+ files, about 20gb worth when gzipped. I'm needing to do a good prune of all this but I want to do it with as little damage as possible to existing posts/user uploads, how do people recommend I go about this? Is there a way I can do it via the ACP so it clears the DB too?

Hi, I am a bit lost on the large project. I would like to review ALL blocks / widgets placed on the project in any area. Ideally with its settings and where they are exactly placed (forum index, forum category, cms page, gallery image and so on). I am not able even to find a database table that contains all the placed widgets and settings. The table core_widget_areas does not work for me. It seems to be incomplete and misses settings for some widgets. The question is: where the settings of the blocks are saved? How to get the full list of the blocks/widgets used on the site? Thank you. Sonya*

Hello ! 🙂 I've noticed today that I now have two Google Adsense banners on my board... One at the bottom and a new (unwanted) one below the menu at the top of the page... I never asked for this and didn't make anything to allow this... I looked at the ads configuration. I use "Define your own locations" and the key is "basdepage". The key has also been added at the end of the globalTemplate... So far it worked fine. Why do I also have a banner at the top now ? Can anyone help me with this ? Thank you. 🙂

Hello, after I have upgraded my forum I see that once I go live with new version the URLs will not be redirected for gallery, blogs and files because of new structure. I wonder do any of you know any .htaccess rewrite tricks to make such redirects possible? http://www.website.com/forums/blogs/* -> http://www.website.com/blogs/* http://www.website.com/forums/gallery/* -> http://www.website.com/gallery/* http://www.website.com/forums/files/* ->http://www.website.com/files/* I actually need the part forums dropped from the URL only when the address is going for forums+blogs/gallery/files. Don't want to loose that google traffic.
