Hello, Recently I started to create new plugin for a IP.Page Template. Plugin currently works just fine, except in one area. and I don't know if it's a bug. I use this method to insert IP.Page Blocks through a plugin: $form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\TextArea( 'setting_key', \IPS\Settings::i()->setting_key ) ); As a textarea field, like adding {block ="block_name"} in plugin line by line. while I can use HTML tags in textarea, but the {block ="block_name"} won't parser as a normal block. It's just adding a RAW {block ="block_name"} in IP.Pages template space. And this is for summon the setting contents in IP.Pages Template space.…

In Forums > RSS Feeds, you can set a topic prefix. How do you get this prefix to show as a badge and not just as simple text words?

I noticed that the asterisk only works when added to the right of the words Ex.: Anonym* (works perfectly) But when I use the asterisk to the left of the word Ex.: *mization (does not work.) Is this behavior normal? If correct, it would be much more efficient to search the asterisk at the beginning and end of words simultaneously.

I have a home page that I like for guests to come across, but my existing users would prefer to see a home or dashboard page with more widgets and site activity upon visiting. How can I code a redirect into my home page for logged in users? Ideally this would happen before the page fully loads to save time.

Hello ... I'm building a search engine in html + js, using the IPS's styles, for that I'm copying the native search engine's design, but the styles do not apply well in a page that I created. I understand that the pages inherit the IPS styles, so they should look good ... I share the code I use for the search engine. It is the same one that IPS uses. <div class='cWidgetContainer ' data-controller='core.front.widgets.area' data-role='widgetReceiver' data-orientation='horizontal' data-widgetArea='header'> <ul class='ipsList_reset'> <div data-controller='core.front.search.main'> <div class='ipsAreaBackground ipsPad…

I bought Invision Gallery but I have a problem. I can not save images obtained using the "Add Images" item under an Album Name. I have uploaded several images using the "Add Images" item but I can not find the way to save them and the "Save Image to an Album" item is missing? In the entry Home-Gallery-Member Albums-DOGS I continue to see the words "Add the first Image" and "There are no images in this category yet" even if I have uploaded several images. How can I save images in a personal album? Is it a cache problem?

Support does not want to help me only to persuade me to purchase hosting with them.

I bought the Invision Community Blog application but I have a problem. I installed Invision Blog in my test site but I can not insert images in the body of posts submitted. The images are always inserted in the heading of the Blog behind the textual title of the Blog and moreover they are inserted cut, showing only the upper part of the image. In this way: http://www.pets-99.com/invision/index.php?/blogs/blog/1-blog-about-food-and-natural-dog-health-nutrition/. Instead I would like to insert the images inside the post as it happens for the forums. For example here: http://www.pets-99.com/invision/index.php?/topic/66-my-name-is-teddy-and-candy/. It is not possible to inser…

Not sure if this is possible, or anyone knows of a mod. I am looking to be able to "post as" an alternative display name that a user can select when posting. The reason behind it is that I am using the board as a Play by post scenario and each user plays a character in a certain forum topic, would be great to have their character name shown! Thanks

I am dealing with a pair of issues, one of which I will not go into here - because it has become clear that the problem is not at Invision's end (or at my end either ... which is frustrating, but a story for another day that may involve differences between IPv4 and IPv6 routing ... good times 😉). The other issue that has emerged in the past few days, which I now believe is actually it own distinct issue ... File uploads are taking a very long time. I am on a 100/10 connection (normally I get 115-120/12-18). A 10Mb file just took about 30 mins to upload, while a 203Kb file took over 90 seconds to upload. The same files going to Google Drive were pretty much …

My users were complaining that it seemed the first post was a comment rather than an explanation of part of the poll. So I tried to move the poll into the first post of the thread, which everyone thought looks better, but I have the issue that no one can vote! It allows submission of the vote, but nothing is recorded. Any ideas? {{$topic = \IPS\forums\Topic::load( \IPS\Request::i()->id );}} {{if $poll = $topic->getPoll() AND $comment->mapped('first')}} {$poll|raw} {{endif}}

We are brand new and have the forums set up so everyone can see the list of different forums even if they aren't a member of it yet so they can be enticed to upgrade to a higher program and/or request access to it. However, is there a way to gray out the forums that they only have "view access" to and don't have permissions beyond that without them having to click in to see that and get the message to reach out? I am seeing that under "Post a Topic", it does gray out the forums they aren't able to post to so curious if that is possible from the view side? Support advised me to post here as they think it can be accomplished with either a custom plug-in or perhaps…
