Hello ! I'm trying to convert post from my xenforo forum to Ipboard. All seem to work fine but I'm trying to add rules for my custom bbcode. I edited LegacyParser.php for add rules here. Here an example of my working rules : $value = str_replace( "[hr]", '<hr />', $value ); $value = preg_replace( '/\[spoiler=.*?\]/im', '</p><div class="ipsSpoiler" data-ipsSpoiler><div class="ipsSpoiler_header"><span></span></div><div class="ipsSpoiler_contents"><p>', $value ); $value = preg_replace( '/\[format=h2\](.*?)\[\/format\]/im', '<h2>\\1</h2>', $value ); $value = preg_replace( '/\[format=h3\](.*?)…

I'm interested to know who is using these? I run a podcast so it is good to be able to easily link to a certain page on the forum by saying the address and having it easy to remember. I would love an easier way to set up friendly URLs. Is there a way to do this on the page? So someone with the right permissions could just change the url? has anyone made a plug-in for this?

Hi If I delete all the files from the datastore folder, will the systems just simply re-build them? I ask because I had a defacement file put on some of my domains and since this is the only folder that was modified on the same date, just want to re-build it if possibe? Thanks B

Hi, Are there any resources or documentation that explains how the database relationship field works in Pages? I have created a database on my forum and would like to connect it to another database based on a unique title field but am not sure how this actually works. The first database: https://www.rendforums.com/items This should have a field for a linked database called "recipe" which would describe how an item is crafted. Can a database have multiple relationship fields? ie can an item have multiple recipes associated with it?

Hello, I am trying to put together a page outside of IPB on the same server that detects if a user is logged in or not. I am using the code: require_once '/{absolute path to IPB}/init.php'; /* Initiate the session to verify who this user is */ \IPS\Session\Front::i(); echo 'Name: ' . \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->name; But this is returning strange data: Name: 8b21f99914133482083efd11a04e0584 Do you know what I am doing wrong? Do I need to process the returned value in someway to receive the correct information? When I try to get the user ID nothing is returned: echo $userid = \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id; I am doing this whil…

Is there a way to choose when sidebar blocks are displayed? For instance, let's say I want a specific sidebar block to show in forum-x and in my articles database, but not in forum-y. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Hi guys, I cannot deploy https site-wide as our advertisements are not served as https, and when I enable https the browser keeps complaining that we are displaying non-secure content. I wonder if it is possible to enable https only for the login screens. Thank you in advance, Gabriel.

Finally coming around to upgrading from 3.4.9 to 4.1.X. Does anyone have any guides they have made for their communities, or any IPB resources that I can use as a guide for our forum members of the major changes? I have been using both in the past but I am sure I am oblivious to some of the bigger changes. thanks!

Hi all, Photobucket images were working fine on our boards, but have all become broken images in the last 4 or 5 days. We serve the boards via https and use the image proxy. The only changes I can think of are: A couple of point release upgrades applied I changed the proxy duration in the admin from 3 days to 1 day Anyone know why this would suddenly stop working? The only things I can think of that would cause this are: Some bug in the accept headers that the imageproxy is using (but no idea why that would work on one of our instances and fail on another) OR Photobucket sees a large number of requests coming from the Invision servers…

Upgrading from 3.4 to 4.1. Have a bunch of paypal subscriptions which seem will go over. Going forward however I did want to move away from Paypal and looking at Stripe. I know with paypal we now have the Paypal Billing Agreement for subscriptions, however do we have that integration with Stripe? I do have it connected to Stripe and was able to do a single purchase in the sandbox, BUT... is there automatic renewals built into the payment gateway? Stripe obviously does support it. Thanks. -Max

I'm sure I'm just missing a setting or some such, but so many little things have to be done on the convert. None of my member's albums seem to be available. What is weird is the other top categories also indicate no albums (0) but their albums are there if you click on the category (like Shared Graphic). I also don't see my personal album in the profile drop down, or a way to start a new album from my profile like in 3.4. Any ideas on a setting that would be hiding the user albums under Member's Gallery or are the lost in conversion... Added Admin interface shows no sub icon for Members Gallery Not sure if this is a clue, but Members Gallery seem…

Good evening all, Some members are having issues uploading certain images (Not all images cause this!) to our gallery. The image will go through the loading process, and right as the user clicks to finalize the upload, the entire site hangs and generates about 500 pages worth of text in this format: Any help would be greatly appreciated!
