Was clearing notifications removed in v4? We haven't been able to find where to clear them after upgrading. If not, could anyone please let me know how to clear them? We have a ton of members asking about it.

I want to create a link in a custom error page for a restricted forum so it will take the user to the private message form. Easy enough... URL/index.php?/messenger/compose/&to=3 But I want it to be pre-filled with more than one recipient not just one. How would the link be formatted?

On the checkout page (for example: https://forum.aeurom...heckout/7034/),we'd like to change the headings for 'Returning Customer' and 'New Members'. The headings are populated as variables in the Nexus -> CustomerInformation template. I cannot locate where the variables are stored. Are these accessible to IP hosted forum admins? Alternatively, will it hurt anything to comment out the exisitng H2 and create a new one with the desired language in html?

If I'm in title and I type my topic title, I should be able to press Tab and get to the next box. Instead no matter how many times I press Tab, I never get into that box underneath. Can this be corrected?

I set my default stream, but those that are not logged in are seeing "All Activity", which includes stuff I don't wish to be shown. Why can't guests see the stream I have set as default? PS, how come no one got round to recreating View New Content?

I'm having a bit of trouble with "Full Size" in the gallery which seems to download the image instead of opening it up in the browser like it did in 3.4.x on this site it opens in a new tab but on mine it doesn't. Has anyone else come across this, or have any ideas on how to fix this? This happens on all images from JPG to GIF. Deeply appreciated.

I used to have code to display ads in my header and footer, but now in IPB4 the ads disappeared and I've searched the adminCP and the forum, but didn't find about this. How can I do to have it back working? Thanks

So we switched to a Ubuntu server today, and we've been experiencing this: Any popup screens are stuck forever loading. Users are unable to like, follow, etc. It does work, however, when you open the link in a new tab. Is there anything that could be causing this?

I run a support group with an average age of 71. Members were very clear that anything lower than 18 point was too small for ageing eyes. In previous versions I used: Make font size larger for all postings Open up your ipb_styles.css file under look & feel > manage skins > css tab Then add this to the bottom of the file and save it, or you can find that actual item in the file and edit it to 18, however this is simple and will work just fine below. .post_body .post { font-size: 18px !important; } to set post size to 18 point to display that size, and selected Size 18 in topic box so the emails had the right size font…

On the latest version of IPS. Having an issue where a British user is posting an event for 6am but when he gets a confirmation email the email says 5am. Not just the email he is getting. Everyone who is set to get a notification on it is seeing this 1 hour difference. DST detection screwing up is my guess but how do I correct for it on my end?

I have my landing page setup with a few plugins that show latest articles and other members stats, nothing special. When i click on the featured article, no matter which, it loads to the article page, but also still has all the plugins on the same page and the article is displayed all the way at the bottom. Is this the norm now in ipb4 ?

Ok so I've read a few posts regarding hiding blocks when viewed on smaller devices. They talk about this "hidden mobile class" but no where have I found the actual code and a decent explanation on where to place it. Can anyone help?

I found some old topics relating to this via search but they are years old and possibly inaccurate now. Does anyone know if, by default, every link posted to the forums / sub-forums are nofollow? A very old topic claims this as true. If not, is there an easy way to make specific sub-forums nofollow? For example on my forum I have a sub-forum called "advertisements" and would like to make that nofollow.

I've just done a VB4 to IPB4 conversion and all of the BBCode is showing up making it look rather unsightly. Similarly smilies are showing, it's just showing the smilie code. I remember in IPB3 there was an admin option to refresh all pages which fixed this issue. Is theres something similar in IPB4?

I have a custom field set up so that users can pick from a list where they sit in the stadium, I'm having a thick day as it is so maybe it's something obvious, but say a user then decides he/she doesn't want to show where they sit anymore there is no option (that I can see) to clear the field. I added a blank space in as a choice but it still leaves the ticket icon, any ideas?

Several users have reported problems accessing the forum with windows mobile phone. Win 8.1 The problem lies in the fact that they can not load the full page, or can load the page, but after that it does not respond to the touch. The problem exists on the both skins (default IPS and Spectrum by IPSFocus). The problem appeared after the upgrade from 4.1.9 to 4.1.12.2. It seems that this problem does not exist in the latest version of Windows for mobile phones, ie. Win 10 Please check for yourself if you have a windows mobile phone: https://www.fiat-lancia.org.rs/forum/ Is anyone else had this problem?
