I was looking for an option to use Google's Invisible Recaptcha in 4.2, but apparently this is not possible (yet)? At least I haven't found such an option in the AdminCP. Can the Invisible Recaptcha already be used in 4.2, or am I correct that I have to wait until 4.3 is out?

Menu behavior "Create -> Topic -> Select Forum" Many topics are created in the wrong sub-forum because of the way this menu works. The menu does not close if the user selects a main forum. In this case, the user needs to select Notebooks and then click the area in blue below. If the user selects a sub-forum, the menu closes and he understands that he is in the correct area. Is there any way to change how this menu works? Maybe tweaking the theme or creating a plug-in.

Hi, I just setup CloudFront in front of my EC2 instance to help with performance, but I noticed the devices for every user are now set to Amazon, instead of their browser information. I assume its because I am not passing certain headers to my origin. Is anyone aware of what headers i need to pass? Am i right in assuming its a header issue?

Hi, I must have done something in my many edits lately which has affected the description colors of the selections in my ACP block manager, accessible from the frontend. As you can see in the screenshot below. Any ideas on what could have done this and how to fix?

Hello, everyone I've noticed on the topic feed block when a new thread is created on updated it takes awhile to appear on topic feeds. I was wondering if there a time interval I can reconfigure or adjust. Or maybe is the background image slowing it down.

When I go to Customization > Themes > Edit, every time I adjust a part of the site through the editor, I get an error coming up and nothing will save. What causes this issue? What file is missing? How can I fix it? Do I have to reinstall the entire theme?

First off, is it possible to change /forums/ to /comments/ ? Why is the structure /forums/forum/23-article-comments Shouldn't the second /forum/ be the category? Why have it there at all? /forums/category/article-comments What is the number for if the URL is unique?

Not sure if this is the best place to post this, please move if not.... For some time, on both this software and previously on vbulletin I get endless emails arrive from people replying to their private message via the email notification that obviously come to me. As a result I have to tell them to reply via the site. This feels like a bit of an invasion of their privacy. Is there anyway in future of making the email replies go to the actual intended recipitent?

For some new project, ipboard (machine A) would need to run on a single server. On another server, we would need to run a custom application (machine B), using SSO to get the current logged in user from ipboard. Now our main question is: we need to load the init.php, as explained here. Would we need to setup the whole IPBoard (using same database login details) on machine B too?

Dear folks, after all this time of owning IP I am finally diving into creating databases and custom articles with custom fields etc. So far I have only been able to list articles, but I cannot get any intro text or intro images to show. I have followed the help guide at to build a recipe page, that is all well, but when it comes to listing the article in a block, or even a page, I cannot, can someone point me to some documentation for triggering intro text and images natively? Thanks folks
