Is there an IPSDebug equivalent in 4.x? I was not able to find any documentation or working examples. In 3.4 I could use... IPSDebug::addLogMessage('some_message_here', 'some_filename_here', array($some_array1, $some_array2),true); Regards, Guylain

Hello, switched recently from vBulletin 4 to IPB 3 and upgraded to IPB 4. The custom profile fields from vB got converted. But they don't show up most of the times. I found this information: Custom Profile Fields In some profiles I can see the fields but most of the time they are not displayed. When I choose "Edit User Profile" more profile fields show up but not all. After I save the profile fields in the editor, I can see all fields from the editor in the user profile even when some of the fields didn't show up before I got in the profile editor. Any hints? PS: Is there an option to force existing members to fill out new profile…

Right now I have IPS with IP.Content in a folder on my root. I have been using Wordpress as the CMS, and I want to just use IPS now. I found a guide the other day on how to do this, but now I can't find it. There was a couple of lines of code I had to add or change. Thanks.

I do not see a backend setting to change either of these. I suppose the default app may only be possible to set during installation, but is there a setting to change the landing page?

When I was running my forum on version 3.2 as Admin I could see all members IP addresses in every post that was made, but since I upgraded to 4.0 I can't do that anymore and I can't find a section in the Admin CP that will allow me to switch on this option. Can anyone tell me if it can be done and if so how do I do it? Thanks for your time...

We run a small private forum where members have to be manually approved and I'd like to customize the registration page so that the forum membership requirements are listed there. Is this possible and if so where would we find the option under the Admin CP? Thanks

I enabled signing up and signing in with Google and Twitter. I've had a few people register with a username of Guest coming to me in the email, but a "real" username in the ACP. For my registration, I also have a required field that I help use to block spammers. That field is being bypassed. I presume these users are coming from Google and Twitter? Is there a way to require these users to complete the required field?

In one of my databases I don't need to use the listing view. There's no need for people to leave comments or reviews and there's nothing to read. It's for audio pronunciations, so instead of taking you to the display view, clicking the record title plays the audio. What I'd like to do is add the link to report the recording to the listing view. I know that to do that I have to add {{if !\IPS\Member::loggedIn()->group['gbw_no_report'] }} <a href='{$record->url('report')}' data-ipsDialog data-ipsDialog-size='medium' data-ipsDialog-title="{lang="content_record_report" sprintf="$record::database()->recordWord( 1, TRUE )"}" data-ipsD…

Finally got around to actioning the last update, and now the site is REALLY slow for a chunk of users. Tried clearing the cache but it's still a sloth. Any reason for this? Or any way to fix it and/or speed things up?

When I enter my chat room I'm having an issue where after awhile, when I type something and hit enter the field in which I enter my text to send doesn't clear and then it starts spamming the same text over and over all on it's own. Anyone run into this? Ideas on how I can fix this?

Is anyone else noticing Polls not fully listing all the voters? I've had several polls on my forum set so you can see who voted, but not all users who voted seem to get listed on them. It'll say for example 11 people voted on an option, but it'll list only 7 of them, etc... EDIT: Think I found the culprit. I'll file it as a bug. Apparently if you change your vote, then change it back, it won't list you anymore as a voter, but still count your vote.

Hi - I'm fairly new to IPB and have just been set a bit of a puzzle by my boss. He wants us to use our Community to share presentations we have created with our community members. The downside (as I see it) is that nearly every presentation we create is built using MS PowerPoint and inevitably the file size is over 5MB due to the images we use within the files. I've tried uploading our PPTs to SlideShare then embedding them into our Community - this is ok, but I'm not convinced how secure SlideShare is (a lot of the files we would want to share have intellectual property or monetary value; potentially someone could find the presentation in SlideShare if they really want…
