Hey folks! I'm wondering if it's possible to put the preview for a single forum, or an entire forum category, on a different page? I don't mean the entire thread list, but the preview of the forum, so like, just putting this: on a custom page. Unless there's a single reference code I never found like "{Print_Forum_6_Here_Plz}" , I presume it's something one can do with Data List CSS, but I don't know what to refer to in the code for it. This is the code used in the tutorial: <ol class='ipsDataList'> <li class='ipsDataItem ipsClearfix ipsDataItem_unread'> <div class='ipsDataItem_main'> <h4 class='ipsDataItem_title'>…

Hello, I would like to serve my site over HTTPS - I have updated conf_global.php to:' base_url' => 'https://www.mysite.com/' To the side of my forum I have a post feed block. The avatars in the the post feed are being served as http leading to mixed content warnings. Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.mysite.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://www.mysite.com/uploads/monthly_2016_11/avatar.thumb.png.0389ebc5b8ad5154e6bfddcc76c7c183.png'. This content should also be served over HTTPS. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Thanks

Hi There, Can anyone please advise how to disable the HTTPS login when enabled for IPS4 for the AdminCP ? The secondary login is really a pain and my original password was extremely complex anyway. Thank you.

Hi, A few days ago (maybe after the upgrade to 4.1.17.1?) my REST API functions stopped working. For example when trying to create a new topic (POST to /forums/topics) I'm getting this response: And my system log show OutOfRangeException::0 error: I'm using this generic code to send the API test request: $fields = array( 'forum' => 16, 'author' => 84343, 'author_name' => 'test', 'title' => 'test', 'post' => 'test', 'hidden' => 0, 'tags' => 'test', ); $curl = curl_init( $communityUrl .

Prior to our upgrade to version 4, we used to be able to use short links for our topics. For example, one original thread was (full URL) http://forums.accellera.org/topic/1392-missing-proxy-to-automatically-cast-an-sc_bv-element-to-a-bool/ which was also accessible via a short URL: http://forums.accellera.org/topic/1392-/ But the latter now gives a page does not exist error message wiith code 1S160/2. IP support said that it was unintended that shortened URLs would work at all in the previous version, so it was just a fluke. Does anybody know of a plug-in that would allow me to make this work? Thanks, braymond

I can usually muddle my way through these kind of things but this one has me stumped. Basically, as you can see in the above screenshots, I want the Title, user, price and questions data to be inline with the record image on mobile. If I uncheck "Block" on the firefox rules, the content moves to where I want it. I tried this code: /* Smartphones (portrait and landscape) ----------- */ @media screen and (max-width: 979px) { /* Styles */ [data-pageapp='classifieds'].ipsDataList .ipsDataItem_main { display: inline; } However, this does not work. I'm obviously not using the correct classes and it is inheriting "block" from somewhere else.…

Hello, I was just wondering if what i want to do is possible and if i would be grateful is someone could explain how, On the left hand side of this page you can see a 'Political Party' profile field option. This option has 6 'select' fields and i was just wondering if, on another page, we can have it so based on the amount of people who set say X Party it displays a numerical value. An example would be On a new page it would say Members of X party: 21 Y party: 30 Z party: 5 and this would be based of the field option they select. Basically so we can count party members. I have tried to explain this the best way i can. Hop…

Hello, ajax pagination is a great thing, but it doesn't work with adsense. So IPS said: AJAX is a technology which allows the content of the page changes dynamically without loading a new page. IPS Community Suite uses this in some areas, particularly when you move between pages. For example, if you are viewing content with more than one page, you will notice that when you move between pages, only part of the page changes, rather than a whole new page is loaded. Google requires that advertisements be shown immediately when the page loads and not loaded using AJAX. This means that if you place advertisements somewhere that may be loaded with AJAX that you need to…
