Hey folks! Pretty simple problem, but can't find the solution. I am running a contest on my forum and use the Pages app for some hidden content. Back before, there was an option to prevent certain user groups from seeing the Who's Online? list, including what each person was viewing. I'd like to replicate that once again; however, there's only an option to totally prevent a group from seeing who's online. I'm hoping there's a PHP snippet someone might know on disabling the activity view to certain group? Here's what I mean: Notice that viewing topic link? I was hoping to remove that. Many thanks!

This has become a weekend activity for me again. That is, having to re-enter the license number every weekend. Yes, it's just re-entering and off you go but still, we don't even know why this happens. I'm running 3.4 and I know IPS don't like us still running that version. But if I open a ticket they'll tell me that's because my version is old (Done it already some time ago before a similar problem affected many people and was solved subsequently... also for me among all). However, the fact that this is a problem that goes by periods of times, sometimes yes, sometimes no, and has solved itself, tells me that there must be a solution, and it's not just a matter that n…

Gmail appears to be fine, but the above simply do not get them. I have had 60 sign ups in 3 days andevery one with the above address has not got a validation. Anyone any ideas ?

trying to figure out the proper way to code a change to a link. So the current code is: <a href='{$member->url()}' data-searchable> What I would like is to add this to the end of the url "/&tab=field_core_pfield_31" But thus far every attempt I made has ignored what was added. Appreciate any help you can offer

Forums are in domainname/forums/ and I obviously want links to other sites to open in a new tab/window. So I use that setting, but it seems that it applies to everything outside /forums/ including stuff on the same domain that is in different folders. So I'm just throwing the question out there to see if anyone knows if it's possible to somehow alter that setting so that it opens links on the same domain name in the same (_self) window.

I currently manage several sites using whmcs and wonder if its possible to convert client details over from whmcs to IPS Commerce hosting? Ideally if there was a way to also copy their subscription id over that would be awesome as then the clients wouldn't have to cancel and signup again etc.

Hello everybody, how is it going? I was wondering if you could possibly help me in restoring the bar with the social network sharing links, please. I am refer to those missing in the red box that I placed in the image attached. The icons were there but I probably disabled them by accident and I really don't know how to restore them. Your help would be great, thank you so much!!!

I believe moderators and admin have the ability to see the notification on a post where a user was banned as a result of it. Can that be made visible to everyone else? It would be useful, without having to manually note it on the post, that something was not acceptable and a ban resulted from it.

Hello, I am having a bit of a nightmare today. Could you please help me with another issue? When members try to edit their posts, they get an error message at first (see image attached) that says that they can't edit the post. Then at the second try they can edit the post and the editing appears fine. Why do they get this first error message? Thank you so much for your help!

On our website we have a youtube video that we would like to start automatically when someone visits the website. You can see here - Our Website I have been however unable to get it to start automatically. When we insert the ?autoplay=1 as required and save nothing happens. We revisit the code to find that the code for autoplay has been removed and thus preventing this from working. Do anyone have a fix, work around or solution. Thanks Rob

In 3.0 there were tools to delete orphaned uploads such as profile photos, file uploads and attachments but I see nothing similar in 4.0. Is this built in or was it overlooked? My uploads folder is nearing 20gb and I would like to see if I cannot get in there and scrub old content out.

Hey! So, GTMetrix suggests that I inline small css files. And I found two of them. Awards.css and motm.css. They have some small css inside each so I can just copy and place into custom.css but I cannot find out how to remove the Awards.css and motm.css because it still keeps getting loaded, even if it's empty.
