Can IPS be setup so that all thumbnails it creates on uploaded jpg attachments be created as progressive jpgs? This would help inmensely with Google PageSpeed Insights and optimizations.

If I'm viewing a user in the ACP, how do I go to their profile? I can't find a button/link anywhere. I need to PM members who have made a purchase, or have subscribed and I can't find out how to get on their profile to do this from the ACP?

I created a development site by cloning a real site to test upgrades and new theme designs. However, I don't know how to apply changes made on development sites to actual sites. Many changes(including block layout) seem to be stored in the DB... Is migration possible? Or are they have any support tools?

Hopefully an easy one - is there a way for guests to have access to forums/discover/unread stream, or is the read/unread flag set based on a registered account? Adsense is telling me it has errors accessing the URL which makes sense as no guest can see it either, but I wasn't sure if it can be enabled for guests.

I am working on implementing the FileStorage extension and when I create a custom storage location and then set the FileStorage to the new storage location to trigger a move, the files are moved but the folder chmods to 666 and is unaccessible unless I re-chmod it to 755. Then when I set the storage location back to the default uploads path, it actually chmods the native uploads folder to 666. I cant figure out for the life of me why this is happening. public function move( $offset, $storageConfiguration, $oldConfiguration=NULL ) { // Keep a record of the file before its moved $record = \IPS\Db::i()->select( '*', \IPS\perscom\Units\CombatUnit::$databaseTabl…

Dear All I didn't think it was possible, but we now have TWO members using the SAME display name. The second registered during "Checkout" - purchasing one of our subscriber packages. How has this happened? How do I stop it? Many thanks Bill

I need to put a script in the head or preferably before the closing html body tags on every blog page. I do not want to use the global template which would insert the script throughout the entire website. Which template would I insert the below script for just blogs: <script> var refTagger = { settings: { bibleVersion: "ESV" } }; (function(d, t) { var g = d.createElement(t), s = d.getElementsByTagName(t)[0]; g.src = ' ∕∕api.reftagger.com/v2/RefTagger.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g, s); }(document, 'script')); </script>

Hi, I used to have a feature - possibly a plugin - In prior versions at least a few years back that sent an auto PM to users based on the number of posts they have contributed to the community. Searched the marketplace but can't find any such plugin anywhere. Is this no longer available out there? Thanks,

Good afternoon everyone! Colleagues, the task is as follows. I have a forum, with a page attached. Pages I use, for various purposes: articles, business cards - of firms. So, actually, what is my problem? The business card of the company is the button "Contact the operator" on it. The button is implemented with the html code, where I change the user ID to the required one, and the potential client writes to the right operator. Example: <div style = "text-align: center;"> <a class = "ipsButton ipsButton_primary" data-ipsdialog = "" data-ipsdialog-flashmessage = "The message was sent" data-ipsdialog-remotesubmit = "" data-ipsdialog-titl…

Is there an option where a simple button can be pressed in the admin or mod CP where you can essentially press it and then that member will be added to the 'ignore' facility for every other member on the forum?

Is there any way to convert older BBCode (like [/img]) to HTML such as <img class='ipsImage' src='x'>? I know this might've been asked million of times, but still... I would rather search for a better answer than modifying the DB itself (my first approach).

Is there a way to use the auto promotion tool to demote a member to inactive? Or does that not work since the status only updates when a member logs in? I have a problem that some members are promoting stuff in their signature and then never come back online. I know that I can turn off signatures for new members but that feels like a dirty way and user unfriendly. Does anyone have a good suggestion concerning this problem?

I have edited the userPhoto template to show group image instead of avatar for members of some groups. However I notice in the activity stream on the profile, and on the unread content stream, it still uses the default avatar. I was trying to find how to edit these and I don't know what to do. For the profile it seems it is at Templates > core > front > profile > profileActivity and the unread content stream Templates > core > front > streams > streamItems However I see the data is being pulled like so: {{if $statusForm or count( $latestActivity )}} <ol class='ipsStream ipsList_reset' data-role='activityStream' id='…

Yes, it is an old topic, but sadly I have to bring it up again, since the Downloads app still (!) has this weird behavior to make files only appear in subcategories, but not in parent categories. I hate that. No one wants a "There is nothing here yet" block on a parent category when there are lots of subcategories full of interesting files. Why does it not work like a filter, so that a parent category displays all the content of its subcategories, and by selecting a subcategory you only get to see its content? And why can't we select more than one category per file? Anyways, here is my question: Is there an easy way to make files appear in parent categories? I k…
