Hello, I'm trying my newbie hand at creating a very simple IPB theme - really just changing colours - and I can't find some things. For example, when I copy this into my custom.css file to edit it: .ipsType_sectionTitle { font-size: 15px; font-weight: 400; padding: 11px 15px 11px 15px; margin-top: 0; background: {theme="section_title"}; color: {theme="section_title_font"}; border-radius: 2px 2px 0px 0px; } I can't seem to find the themes section_title and section_title_font to edit. If someone could tell me how to find them that would be great!

Hi, Image are very important on my forum (it is about coins collecting). Most of my user are posting images like this one : So I would be very interested by a rotate clockwiste or counter clockwise function. A rotation with the help of the mouse, because a rotation like 90° or 180° doesn't not fit. I tried this plugin : http://ckeditor.com/addon/imagerotate But I can't make it working Is somebody using a plugin or a solution to do that ? I would pay for it if needed.

Lately I've found out that the pages showing up on google when searching my domain is very less. Basically what comes up is home and registration. Could this be the outcome of a non organized forum? The homepage is not forum and therefore you have to go to forum via other buttons. I've posted an example here. You see that they first have to go to News, and then click on forum when they are in the category Home>Forums>Business & News in order to get to forums. I don't really want a overall forum that's why i have it like this. Does this makes it hard for google robots to crawl the site? That they don't have a Home/forums>category - to follow? …

Hi, I am using IPS 4.1.17.1. I have ads in two places: `ad_sidebar` and `ad_topic_view`. But I would like to disable these ads in forum node 27. I came across the ads removal code in certain forum nodes @thompsone provided here. I tried modifying and implementing the code to my `ad_sidebar` and `ad_topic_view` myself but I don't seem to get it working. IPS Support won't be able to help, so I was told to post my question here. I am not a programmer, so I don't really know what's going on here.. Any help/advice would be much appreciated. Thank you. `ad_sidebar` snippet from `sidebar` template: {{if isset(\IPS\Output::i()->sidebar['widgets']['sideb…

Hi guys - Is there a block solution that allows for the filtering of last posts based on members that I follow? I understand that there is an activity stream that accomplishes this but I am looking to put this block in my sidebar. Thanks - Chad

I want to show a feed block only for some forum categories. So I created a new block : Type Plugin, and with a FEED On the content block, I can choose "Use as a base for a custom template" Then I see the code for the block. At the top of the code I add a condition : for example one of them : But none are working I have another idea to do that : create new blocks using feeds. Get the key of the block and add them in the HTML template with conditions (HTML logics) It is working well, but there is some glitch in the design. I suppose I don't add the block in the right place It is on sidebar HTML code (here without HTML logics added) : …

I'm trying to implement a button across all gallery images (we only have one main album), that would essentially act as a 'YouTube subscribe' button. So that when users are on an image/video page, they see a button with language along the lines of 'Follow for more videos', but that's not the important part. The issue I can't figure out is how to statically use the id of the album. So far I have: {template="follow" app="core" group="global" params="'gallery', 'album', $album->_id, $followerCount"} So what I would like help with is: How to use a static ID instead of a variable ($album->_id). Optional: How to change the lang for this follow button. I…

Hi, since upgrading from v3 to v4, I noticed that my meta tags that were previously perfect in google search results, etc ... are no longer in place. Assume that's because the prior v3 meta code i had added into my globaltemplate were simply being applied globally, right? I've tried to play around with the meta tag editor in the ACP but its so complicated and difficult to understand how it works. Is an alternate workaround simply pasting the raw meta code tags directly into the globaltemplate? would that be the workaround, and would it would cause any conflicts with the system? Thanks!

Well, there used to be a section for the converters. I guess that is gone. I am attempting to do a test import into my test forum from Xenforo and I am stuck on the first import of smilies. A little more detail in the instructions would be good. So, it is asking for Path to XenForo installation. Is it asking for a path to the smilies folder? I have tried public_html/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies as well as http:// to the path. The path entered appears to be invalid is the error I get.

Hello, I got the following message from Google: Move the tag inside the head. We have detected that the Google Analytics tracking code is outside of the section on this page. This decreases the likelihood that the tracking beacon will be sent before the user leaves the page. One of the main advantages of the asynchronous snippet is that you can position it at the top of the HTML document. This increases the likelihood that the tracking beacon will be sent before the user leaves the page. We've determined that on most pages, the optimal location for the asynchronous snippet is at the bottom of the section, just before the closing tag. Solution: Ensure that…

doesn't look like website is reachable from outside of my server... I believe i messed up and set the hostname up as localhost in the ip board installation... Now I can't find where to change it. typing the IP or domain into the browser just says that the "localhost" file cannot be found.

Hi, One of my members is complaining about the height of the profile cover image, in that it doesn't show much. Is it possible to edit the minimum height, or allow the member to change it? It would good if a member could adjust the size say by dragging the bottom border. Many thanks.
