Hi, I have chosen System as default application and Our Picks module as default one. This makes Our Picks page to be my start page as desired. However, I cannot see any images in the blocks on the start page. If I go to http://mypage//ourpicks/ I do see the images in every block of promoted item. When I go to start page http://mypage it looks exactly the same except that images are not displayed. I use the default theme on the version 4.2.4. Can somebody reproduce it? Any solution? Thanks

Hey all, I created a new toolbar button which takes input from the user, so {{content}}, and uses it in a PHP var. I need {{content}} to be a string so I set it like: <?php $s = "{{content}}"; $matches = array(); $result = preg_match('/i=(?P<iVal>[0-9]+)&l=(?P<lVal>[a-z0-9]+)$/siU', $s, $matches); $url_string = "http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/tools/mechtooltip?i=".$matches['iVal']."&l=".$matches['lVal']; $embed_html = '<iframe src="'.$url_string.'" width="750" height="300" border="0"></iframe>'; echo $embed_html; ?> Here's an example URL of {{content}}: http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=16&l=6b0d928d20bf7c118ac50ff7fbe68…

Hi there, Currently on my XF setup I achieved adding advertisements using widgets. The front-end block manager in IPS is really good, is it possible to use it to add Advertisments you've created in the Admin CP? In your documentation for Advertisments it says you can insert them into the Pages application: Instead of inserting into Pages, can we insert them using the front-end block manager? Or do we need to insert it manually into the theme's template? I'm worried that it is difficult to insert an Advertisement in the middle of two existing sidebar blocks for example, so was hoping to continue using the front-end block manager for drag and drop. …

After the update to 4.2.5 the ads in the sidebar decided to appear on some of my pages and yet I have no blocks on sidebar. I did refresh the ads and cache and no difference.

Hey Guys, Me again, I have another question regarding the IPB urls. I was hitting the first place in google in some online gaming words on vbulletin, after I moved to IPB I fell down 7 numbers back in top 10 (for that online game) and each time I open a topic in google for my site, it shows the old vbulletin links, therefore it is not possible to see any topics on my new forum. It just says "Content not found". Is there a way to get the vbulletin URL's on IPB or what should I do in that case?

Hi, I saw Google are now offering a free tier that includes Google Cloud Storage. https://cloud.google.com/storage/pricing#cloud-storage-always-free I see the Amazon AWS guidance in the resource section, but there is nothing specific mentioned in terms of using Google Cloud as IPS's file storage option. My managed VPS' SSD storage is getting slowly more full of member's attachments and photos/images (45%/25GB used of 60GB available), I so was thinking of perhaps trying a CDN. I use about 13-21GB a month of bandwidth for everything. Can we use Google Cloud Storage with IPS? Is it fairly straightforward to set up? Many thanks

I wondered why a feature on my site had stopped working. What's supposed to happen is you click on a link and it scrolls slowly down to it, offsetting by a few pixels to take into account that there's a header at the top of the page. But clicking the link produced no result at all. Here's what the relevant bit of code looked like: // Get the top var top = section.offset().top - parseInt( section.css('padding-top') ) - 50; // Scroll body to it $('body').animate({ scrollTop: top + 'px' }); It turns out that scrollTop has been deprecated from JS recently, as I found out from a video posted on YouTube last week advocating the use of documentElement.sc…

In the previous IP.Board versions we were able to view the source code on posts. Sometimes formatting can get funky (especially when using spoiler tags) and it's almost near impossible changing where certain things go with the visual editor. Most people who use my forum (probably 9/10) are really familiar with BBCode and can easily edit the post using straight code. I've been unable to find anything to solve this and add the button back, and beyond LOVE IP.Boards software and don't want to have to switch cause of this. Does anyone have any solutions or ways to add an "edit source" or "edit code" button?

Kia Ora Fellow IP Users! We've just moved our production instance of our community from vB 4.2.3 to IP 4.2.4 and we seem to be having issues with redirect, where vB's post had /showthread.php?132929-Support-for-PHP-7-1-x IP Is loading /showthread.php?132929-Support-for-PHP-7-1-x instead of the correct thread URL /topic/276081-support-for-php-71x/ Has anyone come across this before and have any ideas on how to fix?

Hi, using the build-in statistics feature I really don't like the default periods for some values. For example registration: It always shows me my registrations since 1980!!! It would be great to have a custom default range if I visit the page. Vor example daily view for the last 30 days. I know that I can customize it but I'm talking about the default view. Same problem with new topics/posts and so on. Is there already a way to change this?

I started a new site with refugees from a site that closed. They liked using the blog more than the forums and want to continue that. That makes me sad, but it's what they want. I think they look awful, is there a way to make them look better? https://loopsters.org/

Hi IPS community, i was wondering if is possible to export ips header and footer to another website? ex, if i got a CMS or a HTML website would it be possible to show IPS Header and Footer on this website? the idea is to create a website ( something like INVISIONPOWER.COM) and having it work in the same way. but without exporting the header and footer will not work so good, i have tried redirecting everything from html site to ips base but still not the same performance Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Morning all, I just moved my forums from one server to another. Other elements of the site transferred without a problem and display just fine, and the Invision ACP works perfectly in the new location. When trying to load the front end, however, I get the following error: The error logs from the times of attempted access are as follows: [Thu Sep 14 05:53:24.007579 2017] [ssl:warn] [pid 3163] AH01909: localhost:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name [Thu Sep 14 05:53:24.008654 2017] [ssl:warn] [pid 3163] AH01909: www.example.com:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name [T…
