Hello, I want my moderators to be able to view the support queue without adding them as an admin. Is there anyway to do this? I only see the option for Admins

Hello! I have a question regarding the following option available at /notifications/options/: Only send one email notification for content I follow until I revisit the community What is the expected behavior when this option is enabled? If I am following 100 topics in our community, with this option enabled: (a) I should get only one email, for the first of the 100 topics I am following that had a new comment. OR (b) I should get only one email per topic. So if 30 of these topics had new posts, I will get 30 emails. And if any of these had multiple posts, I will get only one email for that topic. Thanks, Gabriel.

I have two IPS Cloud sites. Has anyone used IPS Connect before? I have looked at it, but not really sure how it works. Does anything carry over? Stats, status, member group ect...? Do they start at zero on the new site? Anything to be concerned about or gotchas of the unexpected variety? Thanks JM

I have run into this issue for some time now and it's starting to become somewhat of a pain in the rear. Please read this scenario. I have one attachment image from a sponsor of our site. I use that same attachment image for many promos throughout our forums. I use "Insert other media" - "Insert existing attachment" to speed things up during topic creation. And I insert the same sponsor graphic throughout. The problem is, if I create a topic, and insert existing attachment, save topic, then shortly or anytime thereafter realize I want to replace that graphic, the only way to remove it from that topic is to delete it, and unfortunately it deletes it everywhere el…

Hi fellows, I seem to have misunderstood the Ranks (custom image) and Group Icon settings: We used to have Ranks with star images from 1 to 5 stars, e.g. in yellow color for normal members Some groups had own stars, e.g. in green color. The ranks are set by number of content items, which is fine. But the group icons don't override rank images nor can I set custom ranks for specific groups. How can I accomplish that? Thank you, Thomas

Hello, Our forum allows users to post videos which are embedded directly into posts using HTML5 <video> tags. I was wondering if it is possible to insert the video thumbnail image into the recent posts feed in the sidebar? Does anyone have any idea of how this can be done? Thanks a lot.

Hello community, Currently, one of my administrators has full access to the entire backend of our site, which I mostly do not mind but I would like to hide the income and sales data we receive. My administrator does although alter our products from the store so he would need to have some level of access to the eCommerce portion. Is there a way to hide such sensitive data from an administrator/user?

I was wondering if there was a plugin for a User Rating card? https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_user_rating.asp I'd like to use it in my articles database to write reviews and score them on different criteria. I think this CSS scorecard looks pretty nice but I'm not a plugin coder and don't know where to start to begin writing a plugin for it.

The other day I hit a key or key combination while in a support ticket and it switched from the usual view with the conversation in one column and the sidebar in another, to a one column view. It's really frustrating to use it this way now, but the only fix I have found is setting my browser to a zoom of 90%, below 100% which makes the text smaller and harder to read. I have tried clearing cookies/web data, another support account, and trying a different browser, but none of those things have fixed the issue. I assume there is a shortcut that I can hit that would undo this, but I haven't been able to find a list of shortcuts for support in IPB. Any help or…

Hi everyone, One thing I'd like to tackle is improving how google shows my site results. To give an example: The parts I've highlighted could use improvement for my forum (save for the actual page title - I meant to unhighlight that but ehn). This is how google describes these elements: 1) For the main blurb/snippet (after "5 hours ago") - does anyone know which metatag google prefers to read? I have a description metatag, but currently this is populated in my search results by a random forum description from one of my less used subforums. 2) For the actual sitelinks, has anyone had success figuring out their algorithm to influen…

A user created a topic without text in my forum. How is it possible? It should not be like that, because if you do not put text it gives you an error when publishing. In addition, in the title appears an icon ... Both things I do not know how he has achieved them.
