Is there a quicker way to remove photos from the gallery? I can't find a way. The gallery doesn't seem to delete the same way as the content does if you want to delete in bulk.

We are getting a lot of manual SPAM from new members targeting other members with explicit PMs. In XenForo we could define "spam phrases" which would automatically put PMs/posts into moderation or reject them automatically: https://xenforo.com/xf1-docs/manual/spam/#content Is there something similar in IPS?

I'd like to work with some data in a Pages page. To do what I want (effectively output an equivalent to recordRow), I need to tell the system what I'm looking for. I know how to tell it what the database is: {{$database = \IPS\cms\Databases::load( 7 );}} I know how to tell it to consider that database's categories ( {{$roots = \IPS\cms\Categories7::roots();}} ) and by using a foreach loop on $roots can come up with the category title ( {$category->_title} ) and number ( {$category->_id} ). The next trick is to run a foreach loop on each particular category to bring out its rows. And that's where I'm stuck. I can't work out how to identify the rows for…

Hi there! My fellow admins and I have recently updated our site from the 2007 IPS version software to the most recent version and that, understandably, means that a lot of things have changed, including the way a lot of the site has been coded. Coding is not at all a strong point of mine, so we have been mostly been relying on copying across code from the old site and learning as we go. For the most part this has gone well, apart from some minor inconveniences. Specifically, we have a problem with getting our forum images to hold their link. In the forum description, we want to have an image with the verbal description beside it, with the image acting as a lin…

I do have a notification setting that by default is currently set to inline notification. I can change the default, but it will only apply to new members. Can someone help me with the SQL query to disable the notification for all existing members as well? I see the table core_notifications_preferences, but it has too few records to actually store all notification settings for all members. I know the usual disclaimer, backup first, no responsibility, etc, etc. 🙂 Thanks in advance.

Hey gang, I have a guitar forum using Invision. I play guitar for a living - I don't do coding all of the technical things. There are several things that I need done on our site that would require someone familiar with Invision and coding. It would take a skilled person a few minutes but it would take me hours. Things like... SEO Optimization with the right tags and setup so that our site can be found. Database organization so our forum is as efficiently organized and fast as possible. Need to setup the "Downloads" section. Need to setup the "Pages" section to begin to categorize our articles. If you think you might be able to hel…
