Will the latest version of the forum experience problems if the database type is converted from MyISAM to InnoDB? Tech support did assure me it was ok, but that was a couple builds back.

I have been trying obscenely hard trying to get billing agreements to work on my site with Paypal. I have done everything that has been asked, to the letter... in the guide. I have the Paypal account created, with a secret/public keys (NOT SANDBOX) and subscriptions enabled, with my return URL set to the correct paypal.php file. Yet it will NOT work. Billing agreements just refuse to function on my site... and I don't know why. I don't know what else there is to do... I've done everything over and over. I've seen multiple screenshots of other users showing what they've done, and everything on my side is setup the exact same way. I am at a loss. What am I doing wrong…

I have particular forums set up where I stick all my topics I want to archive. When I upgraded from 3.4.9 to 4.1.19.1 these forums will no longer allow me to move topics to them. They are greyed out when I try to move a topic to them. I've turned off archiving and I've check the permissions and I'm set as an admin with no restrictions so not sure what's going on.

I have a question about embedding a page into the forum wrapper so it looks like it is part of the forum. I know I used to be able to do this but I do not remember if it was with 3.X or 4.X. There may have been a modification involved. Anyone know what I mean? What I am trying to do is embed blab chat into the forum.

Any suggestions ? I just upgraded to 4.1.19 this past week and found out that I am getting a 500 error as well when my users attempt to access the home page index.html in the public_html folder. Seems the index.php takes over and gives a 500 error or just a white blank screen. However, if they type in the full url to the forum it will pull up fine. I also upgrade up to PHP 7 which apparently might be the issue: I am wondering if I need to downgrade PHP back and if 4.1.19 will run without PHP7 ?

#ipsLayout_mainArea { width: 100%; min-height: 350px; padding: 0px 20px; } Is there a technical reason for the minimum height at 350px? Or can I safely change it to 10px without issues?

I'm having some problems with the Menu Manager. I am using several drop-down menus. The main tab (which activates the drop-down) is linked to the home page. I don't see any option to link it anywhere else (like the parent forum of the forum the drop-down tabs point to). For example, I have a drop-down configured like this: Forums (main navigation tab, which goes to all forums) --- All About Turkey (this is supposed to go to the parent forum ("All About Turkey" but it is going to the home page) --- Living in Turkey (this is supposed to go to the parent forum ("Living in Turkey" but it also goes to the home page) --- Animals …

Is it possible to see all outgoing community emails? Someone reported another IP trying to login to their account, and I found who the user is, but I wanted to see if other similar emails were sent to other people whose accounts got locked. And to see if the user tried logging in to more accounts. Thank you!

If I post a topic to the forum, and use forum for comments and then after turn it off, will the news post still have those comments from the forum topic and will it stay on the forum too? The idea was to post some topics to forums, but not all.

Is it possible to program certain advertisements to show up only in certain forum sections? For example, we are a fish care forum so I would like to set up ads for fish medications to be displayed when users are looking through the illness/health forum, but not on the rest of the site.

Hi community There is a second on the gallery index page that shows several "New Images" Seems like it's mandatory non removable block. Which is fine, but how do I change the number of images showing there? I would like many more and I would like them to be much smaller. people can click them if they like for a bigger view. Any ideas where these settings are?

Hey. How can I disable the message that I need to upgrade IPS Community Suite to version 4.1.19.1? I do not want to install this update at the moment. I mean a message on a red background, which is displayed on each page of the forum.

Comments from a mod on my forum (we're testing our IPS4 upgrade): I replied that he can turn off notifications for "A report is posted" in [site.com]/notifications/options/ Is there a better way to have this work such that the badge goes away after a report is read (even if not closed?)

Hi, Is it possible to use a {media="image.png"} tag inside of a CSS file? I can't seem to get that to work correctly. If not, how would you guys suggest I approach the problem? Maybe I am over thinking it? Thanks, Garrett
