Hello, I'm starting a new forum and I'm just now getting the hang of the adminCP. And I was wondering how do I make a post a requirement prior to a user signing up?

Hello ! Is it normal that, after making a search, if you want to change page (go to page 2 in the search results, for instance) you get this kind of message ? Search flood control is enabled and I would find this normal for a new search. But I only want to see the page 2 of a search I've already made. The board behaves as if I launched a new search. Thank you.

Thing is I have loads and loads of recurring payments from Paypal that updates members accounts on their membership renewals. At the moment this has stopped as url has changed. does anyone know what the url is so I can alter it in the Friendly URL section so paypal can ping it again. thanks

I am not sure if this is possible but if you don't ask you don't get! I basically have a forum which has subforums under it. On the main forum index i only want to show the parent forum then when a user clicks the parent they see the subforums. This functionality is already there but is there a way to not show the subforums on the forum index if that makes sense?

This is a silly question but I am not seeing it.. I added two Advertising Packages to my site in the products. I see that the store link is on my main menu but when I click it, I am not seeing anything to do with the products or items? Also, the "My Details" link seems to have a dropdown arrow and a right arrow which is a little confusing. What page is missing from this where I would see all of the products listed in the store? Update: I removed some other things from the main menu and then store jumped back up to the parent with no dropdown and allowed me to click on it like expected. I now see the items in the system.

Some of our members are asking if there is a way to favorite a forum or a page so they can find their favorite places easier. Open to a plugin or app!

Anything like this exist or know of a marketplace item that will allow this feature?

I've already changed the default user group, with $INFO['member_group'] in conf_global Is there any way to assign a *secondary* user group at the same stage? I know I can do it easily with promotions for users that joined in the last 24 hours or something, but could I do it automatically right on registration?

Hi Folks I have a small problem. Here goes. I am moving all my IPB files from /forum to root so i can make use of Invision Pages as the default app. When I do this then the forums section will automatically forward to /forums (even though the forums direction will no longer exist. Problem i have is my URL is /forum and it would mean an 301 redirect to /forums I am a little worried about this as its 16 years this site has been going with thousands of inbound links. I did speak to Marc in support and he advised to be create the 301 as it will encourage google to reindex the site properly. But I would like to get a second opinion (sorry Marc ) …

Hello guys. I'm trying to resolve this from last night and still nothing. HTML logic If you need to check the value of a theme setting in an HTML logic tag (for example, to determine whether a block of HTML should be shown or not), a short-hand variable is available to you: theme.your_theme_key A real-world example: {{if theme.forum_layout === 'grid'}} ... {{else}} ... {{endif}} I have created a number field and I have this: {template="userPhoto" group="global" app="core" params="\IPS\Member::load( 1 )"} How could I show the chosen number? {template="userPhoto" group="global" app="core" params="\IPS\Member::load( {t…

Are there any guides, other than the one located in the help guides for using Pages? Anything user created? Trying to find out how to use a custom HTML template for my site and not totally sure how to build the wrapper and all that. Really wish Invision made some video tutorials for their guides.

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.

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?
