Hello, I am building my own NodeJS OAuth2 server that services authentication from IPS. However I am encountering some issues making it work. IPS constantly throws me error : "The provider is not responding as expected. Check the application settings are correct and you have registered the correct Redirect URI." IPS request is handled correctly in NodeJS server, and server returns these in body: access_token:"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000" refresh_token:"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000" token_type:"Bearer" It also sets these headers as required by OAuth2 …

I'm building a database with Pages for copies of our magazine. The smartest way of doing it seemed to me to give each edition its own category and then use the records within each category to be individual articles. My category listing currently looks like this: It's not so bad at the minute because I haven't uploaded many issues. But ... I'm currently editing issue 986! That means that in a few months there will be 986 issues in this database. Even though I'm compressing the images, I'm going to end up with a massive page, potentially in the region of 200,000 pixels in height on desktop and over 100mb in size. Ouch! What I'd like to do is have 12 or …

If you use an upload field in Pages and display the field using one of the native options, you get the result $label: $value ($value2 $value3...) I want to use a custom field with mine. I'm doing OK using: {{foreach $value as $attachment}} <span class="ipsBadge ipsBadge_style2 ipsMargin_right_tiny ipsPos_right"><a href="{file='$attachment' extension='cms_Records'}">$attachment</a></span> {{endforeach}} Unfortunately, I'm not getting the attachment name with that: $value just produces an 'Array' and $attachment->name and $attachment->title aren't producing anything. How do I get the name of the attachment, eg certi…

Been hitting the JS books / videos. Just getting into the async tutorials now. Still learning so forgive me if this is stupid, just a general question about how this works with IPS. If I have a site running on a server, on domain ABC, can I use the REST API from ABC on domain XYZ on that server to develop on? The goal is replace ABC with the site developed on XYZ. The goal being to build a new front end and PWA. (learning React & JS) I get we use APIs in sites all the time from different sites/services, but they are configured for us to do so. Can IPS do this, or is it meant for use only on the site the lisc is for? Could someone abuse this and…

Google login isn't working, it's throwing error, 'something went wrong, please try later' I am guessing they updated their name scope and IPB is falling behind... i tested on discourse it's working right. do you use Google login? any solution to it? or should we wait for an update from IPB or anything else? I opened a ticket but it's weekend.

Hello I have a forum that I want to moderate all content on. I have it so that all posts needs approving by a moderator. But members seem to be able to edit their posts --- and the edited posts go live instantly without moderating. Is there a way for edited posts to also require approval? I may well be missing this right in front of me, but I don't seem to be able to find it! Thank you

I've been trying to do a fresh install of 4.3.6 but have experienced a problem that I hope someone can assist me with. I ran the requirement checker prior to installation and got a green tick for everything. Installation went fine and I got to the final page which gave links to the suite and admin. However, when I try either of these links, I get "An error occurred (500 error)" page. The admin error page also says "Call to a member function language() on null" I checked the database, re-uploaded all the files, used the recovery mode file (constants.php) and tried a separate test install - all of which resulted in the same …

Hi all, hopefully a quick-fix. We're running nginx + php-fpm. No matter how much time has passed, or if a user has posted, the Editor is retaining the last post that it saved through the auto-recover feature. How is this fixed so that it's only saved until posted, or until a certain time limit has passed? Cheers!

Hello, On our IP Board install I've currently deployed a translation pack for french. When I check what's translated I find the names of the days, the months, etc. But on the front page the dates like "Friday at 7:18 PM" stay in english, it seems that only things like "Yesterday/Today at" or "19 march 2018" are translated. In admin panel I've seen a locale setting, but on our host there isn't any for fr_FR, and our provider doesn't want to install them, citing system concerns. How can I force the display in french for all the dates ?

Hi Since changing from HTTP to HTTPS uploads on slow connections (mobile devices) are failing with the usual -200 error. The uploads are small images of only 2-3 MB. (forum limit 5MB) When the forum was set to HTTP all image uploads never failed even on the slowest of connections they would complete, HTTPS does seem slightly slower. Is there any thing I need to adjust either to speed up uploads or to stop them failing, I have the usual php setting set that I have always used without an issue. upload_max_filesize = 50M max_execution_time = 340 memory_limit = 512M max_input_time = 340 post_max_size = 100M

Hi, we have over 200 clubs migrated from the 3.X Groups. They are very active and we start to optimize them. The most clubs are created by admin, users are not allowed to create clubs in our community. When the clubs are created, then a fake user "Club Administrator" is the owner of the club, till one of the members wants to be a leader of the club. One of the things I do not really understand is - why there is an owner and the leader? What is the concept behind these two? Do you use both in your community? Can you give an example how do you define them and why? How do you decide who is the owner and who is the leader? Why the leader of the club cannot change t…

I would first off, like to thank you all for your guidance and thoughtfulness, particularly @simonle for his help with my last question found here. This time I am stumped with the 'blog' widget; I am trying to get [1] to size to about 1.6rem without resizing [2] or anything else on the site, I wanted to isolate it to just this section. I really would like to thank everyone who has answered the calls for help from this novice in the field. I really am thankful. My project would not be where it is without the kind help from all of you. I've isolated the code to one small particular block of coding, but every time I resize [1] it is including [2] which I am t…
