Hello, I just installed v4.1.17.1, but cannot figure out how to display the sidebar in the forums. It's already enabled by default, but I don't see any settings in the ACP. Is this a known issue, or am I just overlooking an obvious setting somewhere? Thanks! Edit: Found it. For anyone else wanting to know how to control the sidebar, go to ACP --> Pages --> Pages (Page Management) --> click on "Open page builder" icon

Hi Guys, My IPS based site was recently hacked and they've made a nice mess for us to clean up by injecting .php files and editing existing .php files. By default, the datastore folder is empty in the IPS suite, so Im assuming all the php files in our install were generated over time by our community. Some of these appear to be injected but we're having a hard time picking out the needles from the actual hay. Can anyone tell me what these php files in datastore are for? For example there's one called administrators.2d044d0767.php or this one template_1_3db53200833e95cf9ba7ee49cd491e3c_trees.2d044d0767.php Are these normal? Is this data we should not keep? I could do …

I am very new to HTML and Website/Forum Design. Is there a picture which list the names of each element on the basic forum. Also, I don't have a store and would like to delete/hide the Browse/Activity/Store/Support "master" tabs and just leave the tabs under the Browse category. Thanks for any help.

I'm a little out of the loop but I've heard that an SSL Certificate is recommended for security but also search results, can anyone give me more information on the benefits, particularly paired with an IPB powered site? Thanks in advance.

The Forums option doesn't show in the Menu Manager in AdminCP (and, yes, it is published) but it's showing on the website front-end. This means I'm unable to change its position in the menu. I tried AdminCP > Support > Something isn't working correctly to make the cache clear but that didn't help. Any ideas?

For a database Listing template, how would I display the anonymous aggregated star rating for a record — not the review rating as is displayed by default. I would like to turn off reviews for the database, allow record rating, and display or sort by star-rated records. In this use case it's fine that the ratings are anonymous. Similar to image rating.

Would anyone happen to know the code to change the User's profile name font size to be smaller? I found the code on the forum before, but I had to reinstall a new theme and lost the code and for the life of me, I can't seem to find it. The forum display name is way too big and I would like to reduce the font size of it. Could anyone please help me out?

Running the latest version, no plugins, default theme with minor css changes and ad code added in. I've also ran a pure default theme myself and still have the same problem. I have also tried removing theme resources from the CDN. Basically on iOS both iPad and iPhone the editor is retaining posts after they have been made with the content has been restored message, it's random but fairly frequent. Other times pressing submit does nothing, when this happens you also can't upload an image. I did contact support but they can't do much with it being random, I need to be able to replicate it which is understandable. Is anyone else having the same issues?

Hello, since the migration from 3.4.x to 4.x I am still facing a problem with a good integration of the pages. I would love to see a menu on the left side with all the content pages, while actually the content should be displayed on the right. Please have a look here: http://www.deutsche-in-london.net/forum/index.html/. How do I build a site structure menu? Thanks

Hello, I am migrating my whole website to https. The forum is shown as unsecured, because it loads some elements over http. I got some logs like that : Plus, sometimes it loads the elements by calling the real servername url instead of the production CNAME one !! How can I avoid that?

Hi, I would like to have only one language on front-end for my site. So I deactivated the english language on ACP > Customization > Languages > English > Disable But sometimes I need english language on ACP (to find terms or to take screenshot in english for support here for example). Is it possible to allow english language only for Admin ? I don't want guest or others members could choose this language. I don't want google index the english language too (it will make duplicate language : french content with french menu and same french content with english menu : very bad)

I have a sub-domain on my site where I process payments. Now Google is telling me that me that because the other pages on my site (they listed several forum pages) are not https the secure section of the site will be flagged as insecure. I'm happy to buy a new certificate and install it on the forum section. How to I switch the site from http to https? Thanks (hopefully it's painfully obvious I hardly know what I am talking about)

We are looking to load balance our IPS forum and I am somewhat stuck on how to move forward. My issue is that I am not sure how to sync the files between the servers. We could use rsync but it seems that would be super complicated to use for bidirectional syncs. I also thought about NFS but that introduces a single point of failure from that network share. Does any have recommendations on how to sync files bidirectionally, or how you do sync files?

So I am doing some research on IPS Connect, but seems to me, that's two separate forums. I am trying to figure out how to add another domain, and have this format. domain1.com/blahblah/post/example.php? domain2.com/blahblah/post/example.php? Where you can be on either domain, and it will show the same contact, but under that domain the user is selected on. Instead if I go to domain2.com it would register/redirect the URL/Address bar to domain1.com. Is there any possible way to do such, and or to be pointed in the right direction? Thank you very much.

Hey everyone, Looking for some advice on below - Currently, my website is strictly my forum, meaning the .com domain goes right to the boards. That being said, however, we intend to move to a WordPress theme for a homepage/several other tabs, and would like to move the forum to domain.com/forum and have the new WP theme become the .com Can anyone elaborate on what is needed for such a move of the boards? Looking for anything specific to the IPB suite I should know in the move. Thank you.
