I'm hoping someone can help me. I can't log in to my AdminCP to approve new members etc without being on my MacBook Pro. Normally this isn't a problem but my concern is that if something happened to my device then I'm in trouble when it comes to accessing the forum. Also, when travelling I always have to take this with me when all I really want to take is my iPad. I've tried logging in from my phone and also my wife's computer and still no luck. I just keep getting the log in screen whenever I input my username and password correctly. Is there a way I can fix this?

Unsure how to specifically word this, but is there a specific permission somewhere that I need to toggle to make it so my moderators cannot modify the widgets in the sidebar? I cannot find anything relating to it in the Admin CP, but my moderators can view the little arrow on the left to add new blocks and modify existing ones, and I would like to prevent this. Edit: Solved. Of course right after I post this I find the setting, looked right over it. For anyone else: Admin CP --> Members --> Staff --> Moderators --> Edit --> "Can Manage Sidebar Blocks"

In a few posts on this community I have ready about renaming robotstxt.txt to use as a robots.txt template file however I am not able to find robotstxt.txt on my installation. Is this not used anymore? Is it advised to create a robots.txt file? Thanks

Has anyone experience with tracking adwords interactions? Specifically I want to know how many registrations and purchases in the end have been performed from adwords users. Is that supported by IPB?

I think some of my users are experiencing issues with cookies after IPB 4.x upgrade as some of them reported that their login is not getting saved and keeps getting logged out. Is there a way to reset the cookie using the forum link. I remember that a link was there in an older version of IPB which is used to reset or clear the user's cookie. Is there something similar now or is the only way to clear all cookies through the browser settings?

Hi, I have many videos hosted on Wistia ready to be included in my private forum, and would like to embed them for my members. I've tried copying/pasting all the embed codes provided by Wistia, the direct link, etc. but nothing seems to work. I found this topic but the file to be downloaded is no longer there. Can anybody please help? Is it possible yet to embed Wistia videos? Thanks in advance, Deirdre M.

Hey so I've got a few questions about IPB plugins/hooks; 1) I'm running IPB 3.4.8 and I don't want to upgrade to 4+ because I'm comfortable with how this works, and my community is established, no need for me to retstart. With that being said, will plugins developed for 4.0, 4.1 etc work on my version (3.4.8)? 2) If not, where can I get 3.4.x plugins/hooks? I know IPB has discontinued development for 3.4.x but I still need some and I figured there have got to be places around that still offer older material thanks

How can I create a link that will generate the forum rules popup? To be clear, I have the automatically generated link that is displayed on each forum when you've selected "Show link to rules" in the display settings of the forum. What I want to do is manually create an inline link to the same popup, specifically in the description for the forum. Is that possible?

We're looking to use a multi select box on our one submission forms (in this case, facilities at a business). This is then naturally stored in the database as an array. I can print the array with the standard call to the field within the pages template. But was wondering if there's an easy way to perform queries on that array. Such looking for value X in the array and if true, then showing something. In practice, we're wanting to see if a facility array contains the value Swimming Pool and then show a tick next to the text Swimming Pool, and if there is a value in the array called Camping, then show a tick next to the text "Camping'. Thanks

I'm trying to add topic count back to forumrow but the old function doesn't want to count sub forums. {{if $forum->topics}} <span class='ipsType_light'></span> {$forum->topics} {{endif}}/ {{if $forum->posts}} <span class='ipsType_light'></span> {$forum->posts} {{endif}} The above works great other than the fact it doesn't count subs. Any idea?

Hi everyone. If I were to create a forum section in my forums for a group or product of a partner, then we split ways in the future, is it possible to migrate that forum section to their own IPS account if they open one? Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks

Hi Folks Does anybody know how to create events set to happen on every X Sunday of the month? Our club has various events each weekend, and 2 of those events happens every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month, but the calendar only seems to allow me to pick a date rather than choosing the same day each month. Any help greatly appreciated.. Thanks Rich

Hey guys. It's been a while since I've posted at IPS.. I have a question. Does anyone (at all) here still use IP.Board 2.3.x (that could include a demo board) at all? I know and understand that 2.3.x was discontinued for support and downloads years ago, but I still have it/use it. I have a new board I installed a few weeks ago as I wanted to bring back an old clan and I'm just trying to sort things out on it. I've done my own security updates/patches and fixed some bugs in the version I'm using and have modded it to my liking. The Admin CP is or will be modded when I've finished with it. (at the moment I've got a local installation with the modded ACP) - I still have…
