I'm maybe missing something obvious here, but... I have a military history forum, and I have multiple groups based on army rank. They start as Private and work them selves up the ranks. I recently added a rank below Private, cadet, but new recruits are still starting in Private. How do I set the Cadet group as the starting point?

I am needing to add discount functionality to commerce, more than what is available right now. currently theres these 3 choices. Most of these 3 are self explanatory. 1st Usergroup: would apply a discount for the specific user for that item 2nd Previous Purchase: would be if they have purchased before you get a specific price for that item 3rd Sale Discount: allows you to discount 1 item after x amount are in your cart to $x.xx I am needing exactly like the Sales Discount section however it will discount the whole sale. For example if someone buys 1-4 of my items the price is $435 an item however if…

Looking for some help from the community: I need to make a new version of the Topic Feed Forum Sidebar Block which only differs by showing the last poster's avatar and name as we have a lot more people that comment on posts than we do creating them, however I do prefer the one item per topic format of the Topic Feed. If anyone could point me in the right direction as to what html file and or sql query is responsible for this block I would greatly appreciate it! Sincerely, Shawn Tierney

Hello together, my following question is related to the commerce topic. We want to switch to IPS. We are selling a product and want to use the commerce application to realize that. When we update our product it will result in a downtime. At the moment we use a different software and we need to add the downtime manually to the subscriptions. I am testing at the moment if it is possible to do it automatically with IPS4. My idea was to create a Block on the client site with an php code. With this code i want to execute a sql command which add the downtime to the subscription time. I found the table nexus_purchases where the ps_expire is located. If I change this value t…

Hi there. This is partly technical support and partly a request for general advice, so I put it in here, hope that'll work. Is there some sort of guide or a thread in here that informatively discusses reputation? I don't mean formatting or a technical glitch, just using it in general. I've done several searches, but am not coming up with anything super helpful. Basically, it seems like a cool concept that could be very helpful and I THINK I'd like to use it, but it's become clear to me that I don't understand it fully. I've never used it before in a live forum, could do so in the near future after I finish upgrading, but feel uncomfy doing that when I don'…

Its great that IPS has an inbuild ad-system, but it seems that ads are being displayed on error pages like 404 pages. If you fore example use Google Adsense you will be getting in trouble for putting ads on error pages since its against their TOS. So how can I exclude ads from being displayed on 404 and other error pages?

Dear All Is it possible to remove likes from a post? I posted a number of posts which have attracted likes. I have now changed the authors of these posts using an app to a member that cannot get likes. However the likes for the previous author still show: The like button isn't there, which is what I expected. However the likes given to the previous member are. I don't want to take the likes from the member, but want to get rid of the shown likes on just these posts. Is it possible?? Not sure I've explained adequately Many thanks Bill

Like the title says, I cannot see the arrow on the front end to get to block manager, I cannot figure out how to add online users at the bottom of the page, gallery image widgets, or a recent posts plugin I bought, and installed.

I switched from remote storage to local storage so I could install a plugin I purchased. I've found two issues I can't solve: Issue 1 First, when trying to install the mod, I received a configuration error notice.

Hello I have the following "fraud" rule setup to require that all purchases are manually approved by an admin: However, a member with a subscription that was active prior to our recent migration from 3.4.9 to 4.1.8 was able to use their renewal invoice to pay for a new subscription without approval. Why didn't "Transaction amount = any" catch this and require a manual approval? Any thoughts appreciated.
