Thought I remembered where this was in CSS, but can't get to it now. Site font is a bit small for many users, just want to tick it up a notch or two.

Hi, I finally got the conversion from XF to IPS finished and everything looks fine in the backend. All Users are there, all Forums and Categories are there, the download categories are there etc. But nothing in the frontend. Just an empty board. Why is that?

I have the "Recently Browsing Block" enabled on my forum. When you're on the first page it shows all the members browsing the topic but when you are on any other page it only shows yourself as browsing a topic. Any ideas how to get this fixed?

Hi, sorry if this has been asked however i tried searching and couldn't find anything. How can I restrict admins to only be able to give members/other lower admins a select few groups. For example A hierarchy of Mod > Admin > Core Admin > Community Leader > Founder I want the community leader to be able to add "admin" to "core admin" but not be able to add them to "founder" or "community leader" I thought this was an automatic setting depending on what powers the groups have but it turns out the Community Leaders can add themselves to founder and core admin can add to founder too, Thanks

Hi, I am trying to convert over from XF but when the converter asks for the path to the photos (which should be the Avatars, correct?), it always tells me the path is wrong. I know it is right because when I enter it into the browser it shows me the Avatars. Please advise.

In my Moz.com dashbaord I'm getting reports of duplicate content errors for URLs like this: https://www.hookah.org/community/forum/13-hookah-lounge/?page=1&advancedSearchForm=1&sortby=forums_topics.last_post&sortdirection=DESC These are pages that allow the users to do a custom sort of posts in a thread. Does anyone know how I can do one of the following: 1) Remove the Custom Sorting option from the different sorting options available to Guest Users? 2) Put a canonical tag to not index these pages as separate pages?

Hi folks, I just changed over to IPBoards 4.1.14.1 and have it working great on a local VM with local storage. My production VM uses an array for all the large storage. I moved my uploads folder and set a sym link to the uploads folder: from /var/www/html/uploads to /storage/websites/IPBoards/uploads FSTAB is set for 777 directory and 777 file access. Which fields need to change in IPBoards to tell it that only uploads is moved to a new path? I changed the path in ACP -> Files, which immediately hosed my layout and all functionality. Thanks, Derek

Hi all! I have a block included on the right sidebar within a topic. I need to get the forum id so I can place conditional logic to exclude an ad unit within the side bar when a user views topics in a certain forum (adsense can't be shown on my off topic forum). I can grab the topic title from the block without an issue. I can also grab the forum id within the "forum view" fine (but not topic view). I just can't seem to grab the forum id within the block (embedded in a forum side bar). Can anyone help? Thanks!!

1. https://thesandtrap.com/profile/30849-rfkfreak/reputation/?type=forums_topic_post&change_section=1 is a user's reputation page for his posts. It looks like this: Note that he received reputation four times, but they all say they're from "alleztom". 2. When I visit the post in question (https://thesandtrap.com/forums/topic/78581-rfkfreaks-journal-about-golf-past-present-and-future/?do=findComment&comment=1278107), I see the four reputation points, but they are not all from alleztom (not that it would even be possible): So, is anyone else seeing this bug, too?

1. How do you set the allowed dimensions of the pictures? All I am uploading are being resized to thumbnail size, and I can't find the setting that controls this in the ACP. 2. Once uploaded, how do I insert them in an Article using the Page Builder? When I click on the Insert Other Media option, it shows only Post Attachments, Gallery Images and File Download categories -- and I can't see the pictures. 3. What is the purpose of the single image that can be uploaded at the bottom of the editor screen in the records view?

I have a long time, very prolific user who now likes to post controversial Personal Photos. And with over 10,000 posts, and probably twice that many nice photos, whatever he is using as his Personal Photo ends up everywhere. And I don't wish to delete all his content and ban him - it has been quite good. I created a new group and just put him in it. I prevented him from uploading a Personal Photo, but apparently that doesn't stop the "Upload from URL" option. I put zeros in the size fields for Personal photos. But nothing I do seems to stop him from getting a Personal Photo to show. My last option is to make "his" group unable to edit their Profile altogether. A…
