Do members get an email when one of their Paid Files has been purchased from the Downloads app to let them know they have made a sale? I looked in the member notification settings but there doesn't seem to be any options for that notification

Hi people. So I've got a test install on my PC locally and I'm trying to figure it all out. A few things I'd like to understand is how applications and themes are installed. Are the methods of installing themes and applications completely different from 3.4?

Hi, So I'm wondering if there's a setting or an app/plugin (preferably a free one XD) for scheduling topics on a specific date. For example, I have a writing challenge going on where the sign ups need to be posted, but not until this Saturday. I'd like to be able to just write it up now and set it so that it gets posted on Saturday at a specific time so that it's all ready to go, but I can't seem to find a setting or anything that might allow me to do this. In this case, it would need to be done in a club. Is this something that's doable and I'm just not seeing how to do it, or is there an app/plugin that does it? I looked at the Club Enhancements plugin and it doesn…

So just went to my community and saw the dreaded red banner that I must upgrade. There was a security fix in 4.4.1.... BUT... it does not say if it is a fix for 4.4 or prior versions that need this fix too. If it is a fix for all the versions, I get it... but if only 4.4 and we are still on 4.3.x.... get rid of banner. 😃

Hey Guys, is there a way to disable the recompression of JPEG Attachment to posts? I am sharing a lot of comparison images and of course recompressing a jpeg is kind of silly for this kind of content. Also, does IPS 4 store the original attachment or is that gone after the upload is complete? Thanks!

Hoping someone can assist. A few of our forum members pointed out that then they try and quote someone's post that contains a quote, it only quotes the post that the person clicks 'quote' on. So for instance if a post has 3 different quotes in it, if one clicks quote - none of those other quotes will be added. Is this a setting that one can change or just a bad approach to nested quotes? I understand the intent of multiquotes, but no one wants to have to go select posts from pages back. How does one retain the quotes in previous posts when quoting that post? It seems like a massive issue to our users who had that functionality on the old platform, as you can complet…

Hi, We have a very small member group and are closed access to anyone who hasn't registered; however since guests can still view the registration page including any bots it means this counts towards our online user count - is there a way to reduce this at all? how do other communities manage this issue to avoid having to pay large fees based on the online users Thanks

I install IPB on one of our other sites and liked it enough to buy it again for my site. When I get to this page however, it just refreshes when I click continue and doesn't get past this. I tried it with Edge, Chrome, and Firefox. What am I missing? It's on the same server (different domain) as another site that installed just fine.

This is what I see once in a while in "Recent posts". How do I prevent this from being visible? Obviously, guests are not allowed to post anything anywhere so I'm not sure how this is even possible.

I will be updating my forum soon from 3.4.x to 4.4.1 (or more likely, 4.4.2), and during this process I will be switching to a new server. What I'd like to do is take the forums offline, and after I dump and copy the database, put the forums back online in a "read only" mode. Once I have the upgrade complete on the new server, I'll be updating the DNS to point the site to the new server. This process is going to take several hours, and that's assuming there are no issues, so I'd like to at least allow people to continue to read the forums (with a big notice at the top explaining that the forum is being upgraded and that posting isn't currently allowed). Is there a…

OK; I remember testing this on a test site in 4.2 and didn't seem to have any problems but I'm struggling to find the right blocks of code to drop into a sidebar block (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin/) I've set all the parameters on the page above and can see the Javascript and iframe scripts but can't remember how I then utilised the code; any pointers please?
