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"…

So I have just installed this for the first time and all went ok until it finished. I tried to search to see if anyone had this issue, either I dunno what I was searching for or maybe no one had this issue. Either way any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I've just started editing the custom CSS for the first time, to be able to style some pages just a bit more to my liking. However, this messes with the mobile layout (I'm just adding a div class via the WYSIWYG html). Does anyone know how to make sure a class doesn't affect what happens on mobile?

Hi all, I just migrated to IPboards from UBB. There are two features that I wish IPB had, but I haven't found a plugin or configuration to get them back. I was wondering if I may have missed something or someone has a suggestion (like using Automation Rules to do it, or something: 1. I'd like members to be able to set their own # of threads per page and posts per page 2. We used to be able to show how many unread posts there were in each thread for each member Any suggestions?

I've been trying to get a hold of Michael from DevFuse to no avail. I've been using his products for a long time and highly recommend them to many people often. I know he's the man and super helpful, which is why I have to ask here. Is he okay? Is something wrong with his site? I need help and IPS Support wants me to get an "upgrade path" for the garage/collections system from him so I can upgrade without losing it. Maybe Micheal has another way or whatever. I've tried contacting him on the DevFuse website and even posted there about it. Like I said. All to no avail. I can't even post in the Paid Modification Support there for some reason.

I have what I think is a very typical hosting site. I login to the cpanel, go to phpmyadmin and of course I have no access to privileges from there. I can manually create a db and create the user to apply permissions to, but I can't create an account that has permissions to create a database. I'm automatically logged into phpmyadmin. When I run the install script it seems to locate the server but doesn't allow me to access anything to create the DB.

Hi, I just added a ips modal dialog (data-ipsdialog-modal) for guests showing a small "Register first" message. The problem is that the dialog is always almost 95% wide but this looks very ugly with only a small sentence. Is there any parameter for the a tag to show this dialog only with a custom width (i.e. max-width: 300px)? I don't want to change max-width of .ipsDialog > div ... because of the other dialogs.

I can see IP Board saves IP Addresses in at least three locations: core_members in ip_address - Last IP address used? forums_posts in ip_address - When a post is created? core_message_posts in msg_ip_address - When a private message is created? Is there any that I've missed? And does IP.Board save registered users IP Addresses if they're just browsing, or do they have to "create content" - outside of that one location in core_members?

I am in the process of converting from 3.4.5 to 4.1.X and I have to rebuild my content and blocks because things don't look right. I have a custom block that displays a random fact (quote if you will) that uses a line of PHP. I tried all of my options when creating the block and paid attention to any notations about using php. I can't get it to display the random fact. For example, I choose: Create New Block Type = Custom Content Editor = Manual PHP Then I enter in the editor: {parse include="/filebin/randomquote/randomquote.php"} What I get on the front end is: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'include' (T_INCLUDE) in /ho…

For some reason, the word filter appears to be case-sensitive, which means I'd need to add every permutation of capitalizations for each of the phrases I want to flag for mod review. Is this something I can change somewhere in the core code?

So I did a ticket because I got a call from one my Admins saying the site (Tennesseeanglers.com) was down and showing as a threat. Members are frustrated. So it seemed I needed to go SSL. I did that and have it set up now. But it's still not working right and showing as a threat. I did a ticket (#975167) and they said I need to upgrade. Wonderful. I have a nice theme an some great modifications. The images are messed up. Is there anybody here with a good rep that can help me out? If so, send me a PM and a number. In the meantime, I'm going to try to get this going. Thanks.
