Is there a way to do the following: 1. Guest navigates to the site at the top level URL (the one that ends in .com) and sees the Forums table as default 2. Guest logs in, and the freshly logged-in Member sees the Activity stream as default once logged in (and whenever he navigates to the top .com URL)

I have the forums and pages apps. I'd like to display a set of blocks below the forum list of one forum category, only. However, when I add a block to this area, it displays throughout all forums and categories. It there any way to restrict which forums and forum categories the blocks appear in? For instance, a conditional or some other method? I see there is an add-on for sidebars within the forums, but can't find any info for under the forum list. Any help is appreciated.

We're consolidating our platform on IPS and trying to get our Authorize.net account working with it. We have had Authorize account for many years and working successfully with our non-IPS software. We've set up sandbox API keys on Authorize that let's us see processed transactions through the gateway, without actually processing them. We are able to use the keys in various software platforms, including using curl from local machines and the server. But in IPS Commerce, it does not work. It gives back a generic error on the front end: "There was an error processing the payment. Please try a different payment method or contact us for assistance." It never…

1. We setup word filter to prevent Members advertising spam on our forum. Sensitive words (eg xxx club ) are word-filter for moderator's approval. 2. Recently a wave of new Members managed to bypass the "word-filter" using in-place Title Edit Title. 3. How they did it: i. Post a NEW topic Titled: "Hello World". Successfully posted ! ii. Click to view topic, then Inplace-Edit the Topic Title to "xxx club" which is supposed to be word-filter. (Left hold mouse button on Title) iii. It seems the Inplace-Edit of Topic Title did NOT invoke word-filter check. Note that bypass will NOT work if they click edit and change topic title via the edit box. 4.…

Hi Guys, As I am planning on killing my Tapatalk integration soon I want to make my mobile app as good as possible and that means having a decent image for my site when somebody uses chrome (or anything) to add it to a home screen. Is there somewhere we can add an image for this purpose? Or, is it a meta tag I should add? Thanks all, Christian

Having recently moved to IPS I was wanting to send a Newsletter out to my 12,000 registered users about the extra benefits to them in using IPS. Now naturally after many years the site has been operating many of those 12,000 user's email addresses are invalid so I would expect many undeliverable responses. This I could handle and in fact is good so I can clean out my user base, however after a couple of emails that are sent to the same ISP to now defunct email addresses, the ISP bans any further emails from me, irrespective of whether they are valid addresses or not. For example if I send out 100 emails in a batch, 30 of them are to email addresses with the same…

Hello, I'm in the middle of maintenance and upgrading my install of ipboard. However, I'm getting license server connection issues. There was an error communicating with the IPS License Server: Connection timed out. Please try again later or contact IPS technical support for assistance. My server is remote, so its not a network issue. I already have a support ticket logged, but was wondering if it was only me affected. Thanks!

Good day folks, can anyone tell me if IP yes has the ability to store remote images? I am currently using Mike John's wonderful application: I do believe though that Mike may not be planning on continuing the version up on this. I was not sure if IP had the capacity to do this in core. Thanks for any feedback. John
