I've bought a translation-pack for my language, but not all Apps have been translated, so I thought I'd start fixing that. However, when I try to translate a "browse" key in "System" and save it, it reverts as soon as I reload the tab I'm working in and if I do not reload the tab and it says "saved", it still doesn't update on my forum. Has anyone run into a similar issue? Any known fix or advice?

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?

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…

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!
