Hi, I added a custom button to CKEditor which when clicked inserts a standard HTML5 Audio tag into a post. These are standard HTML5 tags. All users can use the button in its permissions. Only admins can post HTML <audio controls=""> <source src="https://mysite.com/downloads/audio/effects/MD2_single.mp3" type="audio/mpeg"> Sorry, your browser does not support the audio element. </audio> It works great for admins, the browser shows the playback controls and plays the mp3 when pressed even on an iPad, but some of the code is stripped out when members use it which is preventing them for using it, their post reverts back to the fallback text. …

All of the members on my board are showing people signed in but there is 1 person that posts on topics which looks like he is offline or does not even show up on the online users or who was online list at all even though i know that he is online because he just posted a topic.. It's like the account is bugged or something? I can see his profile on ACP but can't find his name on the forums at all. Any help with this issue?

1. A guest is replying to a post. 2. The guest fills in their email credentials and types a reply. 3. The guest clicks the submit button. 4. The guest fills out the Google Captcha correctly. 5. The guest is then forwarded to the board's registration page. 6. The guest decides they are not creating an account then close the registration page. When this happens, the post the guest had made shows up on any Block widget that is set up with a post feed. I think those guest posts are only shown to the admin. How does the admin go about deleting these guest post made by a guest who then decides not to create an account? Is there a method which can be used to p…

One of our moderators has reported the following: When not logged in, it can take hours before the site will refresh. Even individual threads are wonky. In forum sections it will look like there aren't any new posts, yet when you go into individual threads sometimes newer posts show up, but oftentimes not. When not logged in, it will show nothing has been posted on the forum homepage, sometimes for 8+ hours, sometimes it works after a few hours, sometimes like usual. When logged in it seems to be working fine. Has anyone else noticed this? Thanks, jen

Hi all, Has anyone ever set up IP.Commerce to work with GA eCommerce tracking code? I couldn't find any topics on the subject. I'm wanting to set up conversion tracking, but it would seem its not something that works out of the box. In the Analytics section of the AdminCP, I've set Google Analytics as my provider, and my code is as follows: <script> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.co…

Hey guys, I noticed that the toggle buttons now show on/off as a "background" text in our forums. I am quite sure that this didn't happen before. I disabled every plugin and application with no result. The text / translation is inherited from the key "toggleOff" and "toggleOn" in the "System" application. Any idea what could cause this or how to prevent the text from displaying? Thanks, Phil Edit: This happens in english and my german language pack and also in the default theme.

So looking at a random nonsense spam post - someone the signed up did passed all measures. Yet it doesn't show who approve the moderated post as someone in the Curious group their content must be moderated. Once they make a post they are then granted access to the Newbie group who also have content moderated < 3 posts? I looked at the moderation history it did not show who approved a post. - Is this event logged? I want to know who approved the content, or if there is some bug in the Promoted by Group that is creating a window that circumvents implied setting?

Hello, I'm trying to put an image button for the CKEditor so people can click it and it will do the same as "Insert other media". I have installed this https://ckeditor.com/cke4/addon/image (4.10) but it breaks my entire editor... It's a bit confusing to have to use the Insert other media button instead an image button like, for example, Xenforo has: http://prntscr.com/mm7gk3 Also, right now, the only way I see that a user can post an image that he has in his computer or mobile is to use "Choose files..." but I see it confusing also... I really believe that an image button in the top header of CKeditor would be a lot easier, leaving the bottom to othe…

My community is going to be subscription-only. Right now, when you choose a subscription, you get this as the first step of the checkout process: However, everything in my unevenly drawn red box is unnecessary to the checkout process. My two payment options on the next step will be credit/debit card using Stripe (which doesn't require name or billing address), and PayPal (which already gets the name/billing address of the person from their existing PayPal account). And phone number is just an extra optional step that isn't needed either. Having used subscription/membership site software before with both Stripe and PayPal, I know the only real billing info …

If I set a secondary group with different permissions, should those permissions take over the primary group? I tried it, but it didn't work. I wanted to restrict a member from posting in a certain forum without changing the primary group. Not sure what the point of the secondary group is if it won't allow me this.

In our community, we have a number of webinar recordings we would like to share 'inline' (vs. an external link), but the video file (MP4) is greater than 511MB. At the moment, I am uploading these larger files to a GoogleDrive, and providing the link which opens up in a new window. Not terrible, but not elegant either. Is there any way to increase the 511MB file size limit? I seem to remember this limit is hard-coded into the platform, but checking here just in case I've missed anything.
