Just curious if anyone else has experienced this. People make mistakes, I get that. And there is no way to know what someone actually did on the site itself. However, some time ago I sent a product to someone who swears they ordered something else. Never thought much about it until now. I sold about 1100 tickets to an event and this is the first time using the site to do it. Some of those people are getting tickets in the wrong section, they swear they ordered them in X and got Y. The only reason I am posting this is one guy who messaged me through FB, no other means of contact with this guy ever. I sent him a link to section X, used it, and he…

In version 3.x there was the option to force the titles of the subjects to a lowercase letter. I have not been able to identify this option in version 4.2.7. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi all, bit of a sticky situation here. After discussing this with PayPal, we have determined that we can pay our Artists through PayPal. However, because of the content of some of their artwork, PayPal won't be able to accept the payments through PayPal. We will thus use Authorize.net to accept payments, but can we disable PayPal just for payments, and use it only for Payouts? Any help would be appreciated.

I was wondering if it is possible to have the date and time on every post..? at the moment we only get the following: As you can see we only get this when a thread is Quoted..! This would be great to get the time/day/month/year on every post.

This month, my community www.o9c4.com was locked by IP for several times. It appeares the window with internet provider logo, about: "The requested IP is LOCKED" and some links to federal law of Russia and the blacklist. After less than a minute or about, the page can be refreshed and online again. Or can be viewed with VPN. The ban periods i catched myself: 2018-02-08-13-58-25 2018-02-09-00-15-11 2018-02-09-00-23-42 2018-02-09-15-53-21 2018-02-09-15-54-01 2018-02-10-10-48-23 I asked my internet provider administrator and he answered me the next: "As far as we can see, the address of your site is resolved in Addresses: 13.33.99…

How do I re-count the topics for my stats on the forum? I was exploring with RSS imports to a forum and there was some duplication so I deleted them all for the time being. The topic count went back down but the post count is still way off. Which task re-counts this number?

In the Downloads app someone posted a file which auto posts to one forum. I decided to have this category post to different forum. Two posts made it to the first forum and one to the other forum. I cannot move the first two auto generated posts to the new location. The forum is greyed out when I try to move them.

Hey all! I'm looking to create a custom php block that pulls data from an internal database and outputs it in a table format. I've read the guide here, and with some adjustments have managed to get it to pull data from the correct database, and to select the columns that I want. What I can't figure out is how get it to output a table of three columns or more. Is there a code snippet I can look at that does this? Much love if you can guide me through how to include/exclude columns. Bonus question: If I were to select a column that contained only number fields, is there a way to get it to sum those fields into a single value and output the result?

Hi all My MySQl drive died yesterday - quickly replaced and the backup restored. However - I am now getting an error every minute from /public_html/interface/task.php all c7ad8f0793eecb3470b it is a plain text email, saying connection to the database has failed. But that could be a red herring as the site appears to be running. Essentially it looked like the task.php file is not running correctly. I've turned off cron for now, but if anyone has any thoughts that would be appreciated. I appreciate that this site is still on the old software and that is no longer supported by IPS.

Are there any ways to customize how imported RSS feeds look and what content is included? I thought I recall a few years back being able to customize more than just putting in the URL and choosing where to import it. Any marketplace items out there to make this a bit more appealing?

I seem to be having trouble with 'Members Signatures', regardless of whether I have turned them off for certain groups, they still show in the forum posts. I have disabled 'Signatures' in 'Group Settings' via the ACP and I have cleared cache, but to no avail. Is there any other reason why members Signatures would still display in the forum?

Hi, I'm looking to put an emphasis on user uploaded photos - To create a mini instagram using the theme of my site. Instagram and also fb are so simple in that regard - You simply hit the upload button, select the photo, and boom its posted. But the steps required and interface to upload photos are nowhere near simple. You have all these menus and fields about descriptions, file details, captions, etc etc. A HUGE barrier for getting lots of photos. Anyone else see this challenge? And is there any way to make it more simple with the latest 4.2.7 version? Thanks!

Topic views number decreased a lot after upgrade to IPS 4 because of ajax-pagination. In IPS 4 when you move through the pages of one topic, its views counter doesn't increase. Yes, there is some logic in such behavior, but in IPS 3, IPS 4 with disabled AJAX pagination and all other forum engines this counter works in the different way. It counts every page view. Some of my users post advertising topics and they really care about the number of topic views. Now they complain that it's "about zero" and it harms their business. But I don't want to switch off AJAX pagination, because it's really useful. I think, topic views counter should not depend on the AJAX pagi…
