Hello, I was using classPost.php with IPS 3. After having created a topic, I was able to retrieve some information like SEO Title with: $classPost = new classPost( ipsRegistry::instance() ); [...] $classPost->addTopic() $topic = $classPost->getTopicData(); $title_seo=$topic['title_seo']; I have found how to create a topic on IPS 4 with: $topic = \IPS\forums\Topic::createItem($member, $member->ip_address, \IPS\DateTime::ts( time() ), $forum ); $topic->title = $topic_title; $topic->save(); $post = \IPS\forums\Topic\Post::create($topic_title, $topic_content, TRUE, NULL, TRUE, $member, \IPS\DateTime::ts( time() )); $topic->topic_firstp…

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?

I want to make our CK Editor like the demo on the CK Editor site, which is using the standard editor, rather than the basic editor which comes with IPCommunity. I've downloaded the Standard Editor files and unzipped them, but now what do I do? Do I simply upload the standard editor files into the CKEditor folder at admin/applications/core/interface/ckeditor?

Hello, I am having a problem with the Articles database. I use this database to store my articles which are shown on the front page of the website with one of the templates that IPS 4 ships with (3 columns and featured image). At the moment all article records are visible to all members and guests of the site. I want to start adding premium content in the Articles database that will only be accessible to subscribing members. I can do this by creating a database category and setting custom permissions on that category so that only members in the subscriber group can see the articles. This works. HOWEVER If I do that the index of articles on the home p…

Hi, not sure if there's a setting for this in IPS4 but if so, I haven't found. So, is there a way to prevent members from uploading photos to the Gallery if they don't have an album? (Basically I'd like to force them to create an album first). Thanks.

Hello, I have set up a kind of SSO on my website, based on IPS 3.4 users. If a user is authenticated on IPS, he can browse some other areas. Everything changed with IPS 4, and fed up of trying to understand how IPS Connect works to make it working, I am almost ready to redesign the SSO from scracth with a LDAP directory or external database. I'd like to know how IPS interacts with LDAP or external DB. How the groups are managed in IPS, are they read from the external source ? Is an user created automatically into IPS when an authenticated user goes to the forums ? Can I prevent an authenticated user to browse the forums, based on his group ? …

Has anyone had any success in creating a form? ideally I could create forms on my site that would replace our manual/paper forms. so it would include regular text and people would fill out fields, click on date drop downs (able to select multiple dates), drop down selection, check marks, relational (rely on a previous answer to provide more selections and the doozy is able to insert a picture taken on your phone or iPad. Once populated, save the data so you could pull it up, search it, print it. any chance this is possible?

Hi, Our Forum is still not live - trying to work it out first. Just upgraded to v4. Couldn't find it in v3 can't find it in v4. Have registrations set to Admin has to approve first (no validation email to new member). So what I want to do is change the wording to the automated email when you approve a member in CPanel. At the moment it reads: "Your registration request has been approved at {forum}. You can now sign in with the password you chose when signing up." I've tried googling, searching the forum but either there isn't or I'm not wording my search correctly but it's doing my head in. Is there a way to change the wording on approval/rejection emails? I woul…
