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?

Dear Community, I've got a problem on my Forum with this device. In detail I can do the "Login" into the Forum and see all the "Discussions" and I can also create a "Discussion" but I can't answer them. I've tried with many browsers (Safari, Chrome, Dolphin, Opera, iBrowser) but it doesn't worked. Another problem is also that when I try to "Logout" I've to tap several times on the corner-right "Menu" before its opening. Can you help me please? It's urgent! Thanks in advance.

I'm having the hardest time getting my email configured. I was told IPB doesn't work with yahoo mail, so I created a gmail account for purposes of this IPB. When I try to configure the basic email, it gives me error after error. If I use the PHP option, some mail goes through, but it is delayed by hours even days, or it doesn't go through at all. I have attached a pdf of my email configuration screen. 2017.2.1Email Settings.pdf

My users are constantly asking me how they can delete more than one post attachment at a time under "My Attachments". Is there just no way to do this? Seems like an oversight.

Hi, Does anyone have a way to limit the number of topics that can be created during a 24 hour period? Max items of content (posts, comments, etc.) is available as a limiting tool for number of content, but is it possible to specifically limit just topic creations? Also what time interval does the content limiting use? Is it daily based on time stamp or is it 24 hours from the first post in chain?

I have a drop down menu, using the IPS drop down menu feature. It goes like this and my question is, how do I make the main and sub menu's clickable when they are set to be a drop down menu (PS, CJ Menu does not work for the theme I am using). CHAPTERS (main, set as a drop down menu - how to make it clickable?) CITY (sub, set as a drop down menu - how to make it clickable?) EVENT (last drop down menu item, actually goes to a link via "external link") Thank you!

I'd like to be able to remove all activity from guest visitors. I am told this is only possible by modifying the theme directly, which I'm finding hard to be believe. I would prefer to remove specific activity from a few of the things that are really for member eyes only, but I would take turning off activity for guests for all things if it meant more privacy. Anyone have a solution out there?

Despite a reasonably active Board I rarely Ban Members. And I haven't since converting to IPB. Typically, removing Posting Priviliges and sometimes disabling Messaging capability sends a strong enough message. Ive noticed when deciding to Ban a Member you are given a choice of time frame for Ban or Indefinitely, and can move them to a different group. The last field shows IPS addresses. The first choice is 0 items and then a list of ISP addresses. If a long term Member as in many years that list of ISP addresses can be extremely long, I lost count at over 100 addresses for a particular Member. Question: Can you leave it at 0 items and still successfully Ban that…

Do we have access to the filesystem to be able to add apple touch icons in the cloud hosted IP.Board? If not, is it possible to do this some other way? I've just become an admin on a forum to assist them with theme development/customization/etc. and have not yet used the cloud version and the owner doesn't seem to know the answer.
