I need some help to make the look of my downloads better, currently because of the extra fields we need the sidebar looks terrible and is difficult to read, is there a way I can place the extra fields into the main body rather than the side bar? or alternatively could somebody make a plugin that would do this?

Do the comments from pages link with the comments from the forum? I'm noticing when a comment is made for an article it doesn't show in the forum and comments made in the forum doen't show under article comments.

When doing member queries, the CustomFields response property seems to be improper JSON. API Documentation says it should be returned as an Array of objects, however both the customFields property and the Fields property seems to be coming back as an object with numeric properties rather than array indices. Is this a known issue? Any work around?

In IPS 3, there was a tool where you could use the admin web UI to bulk import files from a directory. Downloads > Tools > Bulk Import From Directory Was that removed in IPS4? If so, please bring it back, and soon. I routinely import large amounts of files. Are there alternative ways to do this in IPS 4 besides manually filling out forms?

So I am just getting into playing with the REST API. I know how to request a specific page from the results list in the query, and I know how to walk the array to get the event information I'm after. However if I don't specify a specific page in the query can I change pages in the results? For example: Array( [page] => 1 [perPage] => 25 [totalResults] => 161 [totalPages] => 7 [results] => Array Is there a way to iterate through page one events 1-25, then iterate through page 2, etc. without having to re-query?

Please advise - is there any way I can change sorting within database categories for Pages? Whatever I set for the database itself works only for the page it's embedded in but when I enter the category entries are sorted by record ID - and I want to set default as "publication date" everywhere. If it needs a workaround in the database please tell me where can I find this because I've looked in admin panel and nothing works. @opentype maybe you can advise please? Thank you in advance for help regarding this. I want to dump Wordpress and switch entirely to IPB but that's an important obstacle to overcome.

Don't know if this is a bug or what but I turn the board offline to install a new skin, install the skin mark it as the default front end theme and check the offline status in the ACP and the button is now green again and the board is online even though I don't want it online yet as I want to check everything out before going live? Why is it automatically turning itself back online? If I remember right it also did this behavior when I upgrade to the newest versions. Thanks

Hi, i'm new with managing a forum. I'm trying to change the url, but I still got the error : There seems to still be a installation of Invision Community at the URL on file. Before you can change the URL, you must first remove the existing installation. Should I remove the entire board? It seems a big job just for a url update... Thanks, Alex

Trying to duplicate their Bug Tracker for our forum: https://invisioncommunity.com/4bugtrack/ Pretty much everything working except for two things: When you click on Create New Bug there is a text box entitled "Writing helpful bug reports". How do I add a similar section to my "Create New Bug" page? In my Create New Bug page above the Title input box is a field that looks like URL: https://example.com/bug-reports-r# [Change] How do I get rid of this line? Probably this will require editing templates?
