Good afternoon, Just wondering if it is possible to restrict access to guests, so they cannot view a members profile, or see status updates within the "All Activity" stream. We would lock guest access down completely, but it prevents them from viewing content within pages. Any suggestions? Regards, ClubCuddly.

I want to add some Adsense blocks to my IPB blogs. I was hoping that 4.2 would allow me to automatically put Ads in blogs, but it doesn't look like that is an option. So is the only way to manually add the Adsense code into each blog post?

I am currently using an IPB demo board with the intention of upgrading my older board to the 4 version. I would like to know how to make the "content" area as wide as the top banner/header. I have set the "fluid" width to 100%, 150%, 250% and no change whatsoever. Anyone care to share how this is done? Thanks

Hey all, Any thoughts on why I'd get an Error 500 when changing from 5.6.30 to 7.0.17? I tried to do it, and that's what happened. Okay, on further digging, turns out that 7.0.17 has issues with how mysqli works, and is fixed in 7.0.18

Hi Everyone, I'm struggling. I've been in the admin editor and changed ever possible color once to attempt to change the top text color. I've searched the guides and forums, but I must not know the correct search strings. Is there a place to simply change the font color of the top text? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz9rBCzGyKhYNmM3MkVDdlJoclU/view?usp=drivesdk Thanks in advance,

Hi, Just downloaded and installed the latest version, an upgrade from the old 3.4 - what a difference. I'd like to have the option to view the full version on mobile devices, but cane figure out how to do it. I have made a copy of the original theme and intend to make the necessary changes to this theme for members to be able to use full version if they prefer. How do I do that? Which files to be edited and how?

I'm trying to stop certain twitter accounts being able to be posted on my site. I've tried adding into link filtering https://twitter.com/Xuser/* http://twitter.com/Xuser/* http://mobile.twitter.com/Xuser/* https://mobile.twitter.com/Xuser/* Yet they are still embedded and posted with no issue. I've also tried adding Xuser to the word filter but still no use. Is there anyway around it?

The title is a bit unclear because there are no unnecessary scripts, that's true. But, if I view my community as a guest, Chatbox.js and Buzz.js are loaded as scripts when I don't see why they should be? Chatbox is not available for Guests and as for Buzz, I think that's only needed when the person logs in since it works with notification and the Chatbox itself. I also noticed maps.js is loaded which is confusing. What is that for? Our community doesn't even use Google Maps integration. So is there a way for me to prevent those 3 scripts from loading until they're needed?
