When using the IPB4 demo board I noticed somewhere in the acp you could change what editor (for people making posts) and you could also add custom buttons to the editors tool bar. I've hunted all around the acp in my new IPB 4 install and cant find it? Any idea where it's hiding from me!? lol Thanks

Is there a way to make for members to display youtube videos in the gallery instead of uploading videos? So they could just enter the youtube link instead of choosing a file to upload? We don't really want videos uploaded to our server, and youtube, well, it just works. If it's possible, we'd also like it if it could be configured in the acp that for the video category that we would create, we could select url's only, so files could not be uploaded. Or maybe it could be done with the downloads app? Same thing as above, but members could only upload/enter a url, not a file

So the mad emoticon is now showing up on my chat and the emoji looks squished. Is anyone else experiencing this on their forum? As you can see by the attached image. All of the other emoticons seem fine. And for the record I haven't modified any of the default emoticons. And the emoticons seem to be working on forum threads, so is this a bug? or is there is a problem with my IP.Chat?

I'm probably missing something obvious, but I haven't been able to figure out how to go about removing or updating a CKEditor plugin -- hoping someone else has figured out a way?

Loving the new IPS 4, as are most of our members. One thing I've been asked is if the forum is compatible with emojes (spelling?), those wee funny faces on mobile phones. I know we have the smileys but was just wondering if it's an option? Also, is it possible to have "back to top" button on the forum? This would be especially handy for people browsing via mobile phones. Would be superb if that can be done. Dave

It's been suggested before to enable full SSL support for the AdminCP, but I'd like to take things a step further with my own suggestion. I would like to have the option to enable SSL everywhere on IP.Board. Not just on login pages, not just the ACP, but give users the option to use SSL globally, similar to the manner sites like Facebook do. Users would be able change this setting through their account settings, giving them the option to enable or disable global SSL this way, but still letting the admin force SSL on login pages. SSL would first need to be enabled and set up by the boards administrator, of course.

I've just started doing a conversation from Xenforo, but the converter seems really slow. I've been looking at the database and it seems to be converting about 1 member per minute, at this rate it will take forever, have I done something wrong? Also what do "follow_missing_member" and "follow_missing_rel_info_orphaned" mean in the error log?

Hey, I was wondering if it's possible to give users in my store credit. Preferably, could I generate a gift card for them? I run contests from time to time and would like to allow people to purchase perks in my store using credit from these contests.

Hello, we are evaluating different caching mechanism with IP.Board 4.1.x. Thus we installed Redis 3.0.6 from here: http://redis.io/download Redis-server is up and listening on default port, but we seem to miss an appropriate PHP module for Redis: Redis In order to use this method, the Redis extension must be installed on your server. The ACP option is still grayed out and I am asking which "Redis extension" is missing? Thanks, Thomas

Many of my members are reporting that they are not able to stay logged in. When having to sign in again after a period of inactivity, they are prompted (required) to do a password reset. This is happening over and over for some. I have had them check their browser, make sure that cookies are active, made sure there was no auto-fill of incorrect password, etc. I'm not sure what can be done about this. Any ideas, has anyone else had this problem?

Or just all topics in reverse order, based on start date, not last reply. This is something i wrote a webpage for for my moderators to use to keep an eye on new content. However I wondered if it is possible to do it with the stream tools in the new one. Currently however I am either doing it wrong, or you have to have posting activity too.

OK, getting frustrated. I tried to split a topic from page 7 to the end of page 10, but when I selected one post and clicked split, it only moved that one post. When I selected multiple posts, it looks like it will only merge those posts together in to one post (?) and allow me to put a final comment. When I selected move, it will move the whole thread. So what's the correct way to split a topic in to 2 from the point it went OT?

Something Strange - Hide Tags

Hello, I've just upgraded v2.2 -> v3.4 -> 4.1.8 Despite sticking a "hide until reply" plugin on I found i am seeing tags that say [/hide_me] whereas checking my v2 database for the same post they were [/hide] Does part of the conversion process change these tags in posts? I think I have 2 options: 1) regex change it on the db 2) import another copy of the plugin which has the "new" tags.

So i have been setting up some awards for our new website @-RAW- and have encountered a problem. When we enable an award after creating the rule to automatically assign the award based on conditions it spams the award multiple times to the player. Why is that? Has anybody else experienced this? I only want it to give the award once. Thanks Rob

As title says, is it possible to hide visibile post count from the members profiles, at least from that normal forum view? As some of the new members says that it is not easy to come to the forum if you can see that many/most of the old members has like 50 000 posts. BW Kimmo

I'm trying to set-up Amazon s3 for remote file storage. S3 is all new to me, tho I've created an account and been able to upload a test file from within the s3 console and then access it via a browser. I've then gone to the ACP, to do the set-up there, and after filling in the details and submitting it gives me the error msg:- -------- There appears to be a problem with your Amazon (bucketname) file storage settings which can cause problems with uploads. After attempting to upload a file to the directory, the URL to the file is returning a HTTP 411 error. Update your settings and then check and see if the problem has been resolved -------- I've look…

one of my users inadvertently revealed his password, and now one of his friends is logged in and is posting as him. He's tried changing his password, but the password change appears to be getting passed across to his friend's session, as the friend remains logged in. I've just tried replicating that with a dummy account and two different browsers, and yep, if the password is changed in one browser the other browser stays logged in. Is there some method I can use to log out all instances of that user before I change their password? Or another method I can use to remove the 'friend' from having access to his account?

Hi there - we are looking to try to manage advertising content by forum. Is this possible with either the standard Ad Manager or Commerce? As a sports based site, we have some gambling relevant content. Ideally we'd like to put all gambling content in a specific forum and target gambling related ads directly at that forum (taking advantage of more generous ad terms). But it is hard to see from relevant ad manager and commerce documentation that this sort of obvious thing to do is possible. Or are we just being dumb?
