In one of my Pages database I have a field type set to member. I would like to use some custom formatting when outputting it, such that it looks like this: The problem is that I can't use the usual $member object which features in other template, because then it would provide the details of the user logged in, not the user reading the record. I've made some changes using the $formValue, which has got my link going to the correct profile. But I'm lost in other parts of the code because it involves properties of the $member object. (I might be using the wrong words there. I'm afraid I'm a novice. I mean things like $member->$name.) Presumably there's…

I am considering finally breaking down and upgrading to 4.1 I was wondering if anyone had tips on making it smoother (I will be letting IPS do the upgrade for me) I have for example old plugins that I don't think have new versions (Ticket Systems, FAQs, (HQ)Awards, etc) do I turn them off before the upgrade? What about dealing with the skin which will break? Looking for any guidance from those who have done it to try and make the transition as smooth as it can be recognizing some things will likely break.

I disabled profile photo uploads for members and can't seem to get them back. I as an admin have access, but the member group does not. I've checked the group settings and they match my admin settings. Are there any other settings I may have changed to take the option away? I can't remember exactly what I changed when I disabled uploads.

Hello, I just enabled the Gallery application but I am a little confused about how it works. I created a category, an album inside it and uploaded a photo to the album. If I access with another user account and click on the Gallery tab I see the album I created and the picture I uploaded. I'd like to use this app so that each user can load his or her photos. They should be visible by other users, but there should not be a shared category to which everyone contributes. How can I do it?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The Release Notes template is beautiful but there's a little bit of room for improvement. On small screens, the record listing is displayed above the frame where the record content is loaded. As far as your phone user is concerned, nothing is happening when they click on the record. They don't get to see the loading graphic like larger-screen users do. Since clicking on the name of a record usually takes the user to the display template, they're left to the conclusion that nothing is happening when they click, unless they know otherwise. What's clearly missing is a scrolling function which applies when a record title is clicked on small screens, scrolling down t…

Is it possible to add a comment block to a Page? I have a lot of pages assembled using the page builder that are various combinations of wysiwyg and feed-type blocks. Several of the pages taken as a whole might benefit from being able to collect comments.

Who do you all recommend to help me get some my 3.4.6 back up and running? To make a long story short...the directory was deleted on Godady via removing an FTP user and the box being checked to remove that user's home directory! Wiped all of MY sites. I do have recent backups of the databases, but am having trouble getting anything working now. I need to get it back up so IPS can update it to the latest version. I really need some help.

I've enable google maps embeds and it works fine when the link is to a map with a street address. However, when I paste a link into a post where there is no street address present, for example, the middle of a lake, etc, the resulting embed is just a zoomed out google map of the entire world, no marker present. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Anyone know how to get this to work for non street address google map links? Thanks!

I've been having some problems lately and I was wondering if anyone had an idea why it happens. - The leaderboard takes 30+ seconds to load and locks up posting whilst it loads (have had to turn this off completely) - Splitting a few posts from a topic takes similar time, if I tried to split more posts such as 15 it would take even longer, over a minute. - Deleting a topic isn't quick either. I've been in contact with Invision and they said: Then direct me to my hosts, who I've asked but none the wiser. Does anyone have any idea what would cause this?

Hi guys, which permission does a User need out of the Moderator permissions to publish a database entry in a database (IPS Pages) which is generally set to "moderate new records". We got our staff who is allowed to publish content with no doubt. Then we got our basic members who are allowed to write content for us but staff members need to check and activate those articles. Coming new: We have trusted users who are in the group of basic members but individually getting the permission to publish content withouth being checked by our staff. For the third case we need the right permission settings in "Members" -> "Staff" -> "Moderators"…
