I want to remove the Copyright and Credit text boxes as it doesn't make sense for us to have those there. Does anyone know where this is located so I can delete them from view? I've removed it everywhere but from edit view below Thanks

Hi all, We're experiencing issues with people from a malicious website linking to us and sending malicious traffic to us. We want to redirect them to a legal disclaimer page. So any referral links to our site from their site that are clicked on via their site would be taken to the legal disclaimer page. I have another personal website which I can use to test such a rule in .htaccess but unfortunately I am failing to get it to work. Current .htaccess: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /~bayour8/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} .*\.(jpeg|jpg|gif|png)$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule . /~bayou…

I searched and could not find an answer to this question. I have many pages in IP Content, in recent time I added two new user groups. I cannot find a place where I can assign those new user groups permission to view various pages. When new pages are created it is easy to assign them to all groups, but the existing pages did not have a permission setting for these new groups as they did not exist when the page was created. I can go to each page and change the permission settings for the page individually, but I have over 300 pages. Is there a way to assign permissions to the pages in bulk?

Hello In one of the later versions of IPB 4.x direct support for piwik analytics code was added. I'm using piwik together with the forum now for about a year - previously just using the Google Analytics section for piwik. I've read through the JavaScript API of piwik that it's possible to pass on the member name to piwik to better distinguish known / unique users to visitory: http://developer.piwik.org/guides/tracking-javascript-guide#user-id Is it possible to use placeholders in that analytics settings section? What is the safest value for guests and logged in members? Thanks

Hi, In French there is a lot of caracters like this one : If I use this caracter : The translation is working with sentences with this caracter If I use this one : It breaks the sentences on front end The problem is : french keyboards are using U+0027 caracters not the other. One solution would be to support both. I have to check all my french translation to find the bad caracter to change it and make it work for the whole site.

Hi, how do i set the membership so that it expires after a number of days. I have added an extra membership under the name Premium. I have managed to add a price and it works as it should. But then, after 30 days, I want the member must return to the default member if he does not pay for a new period of 30 days. How do I do this? I do not get the member to return to the default member after 30 days. Is it in these settings to set this? See the picture. Is this correct?

Nathan Explosion and TAMAN: two dedicated individuals who always seem to have time to assist n00bs like myself with issues that sometimes get a bit bewildering when one is trying to sift through CSS labels, CKeditor modifications and more! Let me say that I know there are more of you helpful folks out there - my apologies if I can't remember all of your names (it's Christmas and I've had a few glasses of wine ). But this message is dedicated to you as well. THANK YOU . People like you are part of the reason why IPS is such a successful product.

I'd like to hear from those webmasters whose forums have lots and lots of subforums (as I'm one of them but I'm still running IPB3.4). Have you noticed any difference in speed and performance between 3.4 and 4.1?

If you remove an application you get a message saying "Deleted", but it only seems to move it to a list at the bottom that says "Applications not currently installed". How do I remove that?

An earlier request for a feature that existed in content but is sadly lacking in this new software is the ability to select multiple albums, but display a rotation of images randomly. Again, this was requested many months ago so I am not sure it could be considered a bug, but is all of the functionality that existed in Content just being ignored?

When I am trying to add a new menu item and assigning it to an existing page I am presented with a scroll window to select the page. Unfortunately this scroll doe not sort in any fashion, meaning the last page created will be at the bottom normally, but if pages have been deleted it might show up anywhere in the scroll window. Is there any way to get this to sort alphabetically by folder?

I have a growing number of blocks I am using as filtering of content. When I create a new page the folder sorts the page alphabetically, which makes sense. BUT the blocks are not sorted in any way. Is there a way to sort folders alphabetically when viewing blocks?
