Hello, How would an individual go about removing the ability to search an application from both the quick search and advanced search? I don't think I've missed a setting anywhere and I assume there's going to be a few files that need edited. I need to do this on a third party app (iAwards), but I think this isn't really an application specific question, hence posting here rather than support for the specific app...It may be useful to know how to do it for any application. If this is something application specific, I can post there instead, even though the developer doesn't seem too active at the moment. Thanks! -Cris

Please ask for any info you may need to assist. Thank you.

Hi, I am navigating to my articles database following the upgrade to IPB 4 .. but the templates seem totally off. When I go to templates, I can see templates available (2 column, 3 column etc), but when I go to the database and try to select any of those templates .. Only default template names are available such as "Category Listing" "Display" "Form" etc... What am I doing wrong? Does IPB4 not ship with a decent template right out of the box? Surprised. Thanks

I recently upgraded my site to IPS4. I've had issues, but ended up completely deleting my old site and re-installing IPS4 and updated my database. After working on the site and getting everything where I want it, test post but nothing happens. Hitting Submit posts but nothing happens. If the user refreshes the page their post is there, but if they hit Submit again it double posts or posts however many times they hit Submit. I've gone through and disabled any and all plugins, still same behavior. I eventually started disabling applications one at a time and testing. I've narrowed my issues down to the Pages application. If I disable Pages, then users can post and the thre…

Hello, I'm testing IP.Nexus now and I'm little bit confused about how custom fields work. I'd like to set some fields in my ACP, but I don't want customers to be able to modify them, i.e. I have products with different langauges or release dates, so customers should be aware of such informations, but not able to change them. Is this possible with default IP.Nexus? If not, is there an app or a plugin for this?

There are no links to any member profiles by clicking on their name or profile picture. On my other forum, it works. It is like something got turned off on the forums. No pop up box for member details because no link is active (their name is not an active link to go there). Is this feature turned off on the one forum? Where would that be if so? One of my mods also stated that if they send a PM it shows up in their status updates which is goofy. Is this a bug or feature and how do I turn it off? Thank you!

Sometime recently either Google started storing our pages differently, or the software started handling degenerate or old-style URLs differently. I am getting links out of Google in the form: https://forums.egullet.org/index.php/topic/142948-people-who-just-cant-get-a-meal-ready-on-time/?&hl= late Notice the index.php and the weird query string at the end. I don't understand how to write an .htaccess rule to correct these to the modern canonical form (e.g. to strip out the index.php part, and to convert that hl into the correct form for a highlight.) Can anyone help out with this?

Hi all, we're about to pull the switch (a bit late) on upgrading to version 4.1.14.2 of the forum software, and (amongst other things) I'm so pleased that we're finally getting Justified text, rather than the old left, right or centre of 3.x.x, which leaves a jagged edge down one side that always looked messy and unprofessional to my eyes. What I'd like to do is set up the posting window so that it defaults to justified text, rather than have reviewers (and the members) having to click the button every time, which is easy enough to forget to do. Incidentally, I notice here you've not got the button on your toolbar. The horror!!!! I'm not massively technical, but I…

Hello, we're in the process of testing a migration form phpBB 3.x. Everything's looking smooth so far, and we've been quite impressed with how robust the conversion process is. The only thing we're baffled by is how we can easily migrate our Geshi code over. I'm looking for some general advice on the best way to proceed. Here's an example of a topic from our public forum: https://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=102078 . I've attached a Chrome HTML page of what this page looks like post conversion. Here's a screenshot: http://imgur.com/a/phdhK for a quick look You'll see that there are some strange artifacts during the conversio…

Hello, as you can see here, my blog title is cut off because the name of it is too long to fit into that particular header. https://www.ohiocannabis.com/forums/blogs/ What is the easiest way to fix this? I would prefer to not have to edit the name as this puts restrictions on what people can call their blog. Should I just make the column wider? Or could I have the text go to the next line instead of adding the ... and being unreadable? Is there a way to adjust this within the dashboard or do I need to add some custom CSS? If so, anyone know what div/class specifically to add to the CSS to make only that blog header widen? Thank you.

In one of my Gallery categories I've set the default sorting order to 'Title', however upon viewing the category the images are not being sorted by title, but instead I think they're being sorted by the image name part of the image url. Is this a bug or is that how it is supposed to work? When in the category view, if I sort by title it sorts them correctly... Also, is there no option to choose ascending or descending for the default sorting order?

After a recent attack on my site last night, I've switched over to SSL. The issue I'm having is some, not all, of my images are broken and not found. When I go into the directory and perform a search, the images are there but with a bunch of different numbers that I guess get added after upload. The differ though from the numbers in the url that the page is looking for. I've run support to clear cache but this hasn't seemed to have helped. Can someone suggest something?

Hello. I'm trying to figure out how to make a simple "what's on your mind?" block. If it's feasible I was thinking one could just edit the default "Recent Status Updates" Block to only have the "What's on your mind?" box and not display recent status updates underneath. Ultimately I'm making something that looks like this, a block that I can put on my front page to make it even easier for my users to update their statuses and all that fun stuff. or even better would be this without the title bar thing at the top, Unfortunately I just have the idea and not the knowledge on how to execute it. If there is any kind souls out there that could help m…

Hi, I tried the bulk mail feature for the first time over a week ago but not everyone received the email (didn't arrive in the junk folder either). I have several accounts of my own set up with valid email addresses and with the news and info emails option switched on but none of them received the email either, which was supposed to send to the entire membership. There are no errors in the email logs, and the 'test email settings' feature sends test emails just fine (even tried one of the email addresses the bulk email failed to send to, and it worked in testing too). The bulk emailing system said it sent to all 7,448 members in 12 minutes and 34 seconds. Is thi…
