As I have something like 30 plugins installed, the user Settings area is very crowded. Is there any way I can organize the navigation there? I'd probably make a drop down with unimportant stuff like Pokes, etc- maybe put all of the social media integration under another... things like that. How can I do that?

Is there a way, for when you create a new group, to set pages permissions for more than 1 at a time? To be able to allow that group to see pages with out having to do each page permission one by one? Example: newgroup5 15 pages... Instead of having to edit each page permission 1 by 1 to give access to the new group, adding the group to more than 1 page at a time. Is that possible to do? (I think that made sense!)

When adding a post (article) into my database with IP.Content, the last field is the IMAGE FIELD. This is the image that gets shown on the index page of my database. How can I make this field a REQUIRED one? I can toggle this for both the TITLE and CONTENT fields, but the Record Image is not editable. Thanks in advance!

How do you add an application to the menu? Like the guidelines and calendar are on the menu by default, but I can't figure out how to replicate that and put other applications on the menu. What am I missing?

I found a weird one. I need to post a another post... Apparently not in the 4.1.9 version I can't reproduce. The 4.1.8 version will. What you have to do to make it happen is to quote someone. The backspace into the quote. Then enter key twice to leave the quote box. Then type below everything is backwards.

So, I was wondering if it'd be possible to code up a little thing that appears in the bottom right of my website and has a few different things which bump out when you click them. For example, Enjin has that little thingie. I could manage coding the fontawesome icons, even working with the embeds and IPS side of it- I'm just wondering if something like this is possible. If it is- I'll probably start messing with it and maybe release it on the Marketplace!

I have been using Invision for some time, but running it on my own web space with Patrick Internet. It was no problem and running fine. Sometime late 2015 I started to experience an intermittent fault that prevented me from uploading a simple small jpg image to a post. Previously that had been no trouble at all, but I discovered that if I uploaded the text, then edited the text, the image could then be attached successfully. It was a workaround rather than a solution. Recently (December) Invision upgraded my board to v4. With the upgrade to v4 I now cannot upload an image to my Photographic forum from my home. I get the attached error message. Invision tell me its the fa…

Hi! I can't seem to find a node to give my moderators permission to move topics in my forums. Am I just blatantly missing something? I've looked in Members -> Groups -> Moderator, and even in the individual forum perms I want to give them...

I don't know if it's happening with me or it's a bug. Google + share only share the url and nothing from my site. It's same for this site! So, I assume it as a bug. But facebook share is behaving ridiculously on my pages and forum posts. After posting a new article, If go to share, this is what the popup window gives. Even after sharing the post only the url is shared. Now, I go to https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/ and see 'existing scape information, I get this:- Then I go for ' fetch new scrape information'. Now I have this :- Please see the errors and that no image is scaped. So, again I 'fetch fo…

Hello I've just upgraded my test board to version 4 (my test board is on my server to make sure I have all files needed...). It took about 4 hours to upgrade, but I got no errors during the upggrade process. Now, the Gallery shows dark rectangles instead of pictures (and I also have these dark squares instead of screenshots in the Downloads section) : The pictures urls are like this : http://mywebsite/gallery/image/955-photo-005jpg/ and they don't show. I have another board whose version is 4 and whose gallery is working fine. What can be the reasons for this problem ? Did I forget to do something (configuration) ? Thank y…

So I noticed one of my databases was added to my Create menu, which is neat - it shows up as "New Wiki Page in Wiki". But can I disable the "in Wiki" part of it? I can get why it's there - maybe someone would have a "New Car in Garage" or something like that, but there really should be an option to disable the "in x database" part of it.

Is there a way to limit how many times members can start new topics in a single forum, but otherwise let the post normally on all the rest? I see settings on a per-group basis, but no such restrictions on a per-forum basis. Am I missing something?
