Hi all, After reading some of the threads on here I moved from Memcached to Redis. Would love to hear what you have setup for the overall configurations? Currently using MySQL Database as the Data Storage Method but wasn't sure if this was best. Also any ideas why if I search for 'Data Storage' in the ACP search I get no results, but if I search for 'storage' i get what i'm after? [System] Data Storage Cheers Alex

Is there any way I can ban a used but NOT ban the list of IP addresses they use? I'm having to manually work my way through 27 pages of banned IPs that got listed when I banned ONE user. It is causing havoc with everyone else as I am now getting reports from all over the country from people who are logging in to find that they are banned...but they are not.

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.
