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…

I'm trying to understand how to correctly use the Database Relationship Field in an IPS pages database and greatly appreciate any help. Basically, I've created two databases: stories and chapters. The story database contains the story genre/summary/etc. The chapters database contains the story's chapters. When a user visits a story record, I'd like the chapters of the related story to appear as a list of clickable links (so the user can click on and read each chapter). Is this possible with the pages app, or am I misunderstanding how the database relationship field works? If it is possible, could someone please walk me through how this is done? Or if t…

Hi there! For my site's anniversary, we usually have special birthday forums for members to post in. For some reason, when trying to add images to the forum desciptions (we just update them from previous years), my images are resizing automatically. Any ideas why? I attached a screenshot - the images are all actually the size of the heart image, which for some reason didn't resize. The balloons and the cake shrunk, and even when I specified a height of 150 and width of 150, the size didn't change/update. I copy/pasted the code for the one that worked into the other forum descriptions to see if that would help anything, but it didn't either. I'm at a loss! This is th…

Is there a means or method (or plugin) of automatically moving topics from one forum to another after a certain cut off date? For example I have a breaking news forum which I use to put the latest news in, but I don't want those topics staying in that forum for longer than, say, 30 days, and after that time they are moved automatically to another forum called, say, Older News. Is this doable? WIth thanks

This may be a silly question! But.... if I am moving my board to a different location and I wish to "uninstall" the old version... how do I do that? Do I simply just delete it? Or is there an actual uninstall process to go through? Thank you

Hello. I can't figure out how to view database records. There's a Database with different Categories and each Category has various Records. Shouldn't the link to view a Record be domain.com/database/category/record? When I type this in the site automatically redirects me back to domain.com/database/category/ The text preceding the Custom URL field for each record is domain.com/page/{page}/{category}/ Why is /page/{page}/ there and how do I get rid of it? Can someone more knowledgeable help me out? Thank you.

Scenario: Moving an IPBoard, as an example, from: invisioncommunitysite.com (older IPBoard version) to site.com/invision (newer recently upgraded IPBoard version) I would like any old URL on the former to be taken to the index of the new latter location (many URLs/pages have changed, so like for like is not practical). I am getting lost in all the different 301 permanent codes there are! Could someone perhaps advise what would be the best bit of 301 redirect code to use here, to order mimimise any lost google juice etc and point to the new location. Thank you very much

Rank Images

For some reason when I upload a rank image it's size is being reduced by 30% is this by design or is there somewhere this can be changed? Original image size that I upload is 201 x41 pixels but when uploaded it is reduced in size to 140 x 29 pixels - equivalent to a 30% reduction. When looking at the CSS there appears to be a margin/padding either side of the image, but there is no corresponding CSS and even if there were there is no explanation for the size change. Anyone any idea what's happening here and why - and importantly for me where it's happening and can it be changed? With thanks.

Hello I have an odd one here. I have made changes in Menu Manager. Saved them. And then Published them. ....but, the changes that I made are not showing on the front end. Still showing the previous menu I had up there. No matter how many times I refresh or try to do it. (Interestingly the Preview at the bottom within Admin is showing the changes. Just not uploaded to the site). Any idea what might be stopping it from updating.... and how I could fix this? Thank you!

Hi all, I'm hoping I can get some help wit this, and maybe i'm missing something obvious, but how to I best manage a store? I'm currently struggling with: 1. displaying list of who has bought a product. If I could have this as an automatically updated page that would be great! 2. Having an easy way to check inventory? These are the main two, but overall compared to something like WooCommerce on wordpress its a difficult system to use.
