Hi there. Could somebody please explain to me what the Email Error Logs inside the ACP are supposed to be doing? Or more specifically, I thought if someone registered using an invalid email address, the error logs would let me know. (I do actually already understand that I could set my board such that new members are required to validate their email addresses before doing anything else, but I have another reason I'd be interested in deleting registrations with invalid emails before they'd be auto-deleted that's probably too long and uninteresting for this post.) But I registered a couple of times for my own board using email addresses on a couple of different …

If I create a database, then allow records to be saved in Categories, how do I always 'show records like articles' in the individual Category. Example www.canadaisplaying.com 1. Click on TESTME in the navbar 2. See the list of articles mixed up by category ordered by publication date. Perfect! 3. Click on a Category in sidebar... now it looks like a forum. 4. How can you keep the same format so the category is displayed as 'show records like articles' It's kind of a 'discontinuity' so to speak. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks JM

When trying to install, right after entering the admin name and password, i get the following error regarding the database Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'IPS\Db\Exception' with message 'Table After which I just get: An error occurred (500 Error) We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now. You can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later. The database does exist - no tables since I assumed Ipb would create those, and the setup has the correct mysql account info (the database does get created by the setup script) Step: System Check …

The title tag is filled with unnecessary crap like "name of the forum" the topic is in and also "sitename". This can not be good for SEO How do I remove this? The title should only contain the title of the page, nothing else!

Is there a way to disable others from leaving a message on another members feed? I want members to be able to change their status AND allow others to comment on that status, but I don't want members to be able to post directly onto another members feed. I think that there is confusion and they think that they are sending a PM when in reality are posting to their feed and that post is being displayed on the main page because I have the widget enabled.

Protect Group from Flag as Spammer?
by Guest- 0 replies
- 107 views
Is there an option to protect a Group from the Flag as Spammer option? Rather than simply hiding content, I want to set the Flag as Spammer tool to delete all content. However, to guard against irreversible mistakes I'd like an option within each Group's settings to 'protect' that group from having the tool used on them. An alternative option would be to have a setting whereby the tool can only be used if a member has less than X posts. Is this possible?

After doing a test it appears our 'guests' are receiving notifications still. Any way to control that? Few questions: - Any way to control or disable guest notifications? - Does guest get a full copy of the post or just a link to it? I received a link but I had an email forwarded to me that was a full post and I'm not totally sure if they were an active member when that was sent or not. - If a member was following (via email notification option) a forum area that they had paid extra to get access too. Then lost access as their subscription to that area ended. Will they continue to get emails from stuff that happens in that area? - Lastly, if a user asks to r…

Not sure what the issue is but I received the following error during the upgrade - otherwise things seem to have gone smoothly. We'll see just how well although no other errors. Pretty impressed how quick and seamless it was... at least during the upgrade. Table 'mysite_dbips4.fxcore_view_updates' doesn't exist /home/mysite/public_html/applications/core/setup/upg_101019/queries.json - query #2 TRUNCATE `fxcore_view_updates`

I am not sure if this is a bug or something wrong with my site, so thought I would ask here before submitting it as a bug. If you go to edit profile and look at the Birthday setting, I have no option to edit the month and if I try to edit the day or year, I get an error does anybody else have this, or is it specific to my site? I have tried on all skins & it is also the same if I try to edit it in the ACP

I was looking through the settings and also in the market place. But did not see any sort of item that would allow this. maybe I am over looking it or not. Is there something I can do for my forums to add a ban button to members profiles? Then have it set to a certain group to be able to ban? I know in the admin panel there is a way to ban but I want to set a ban button up for head mods to be able to click a button to ban on profiles. So they don't need to see the ips, and email addresses. While not allowing other mod groups to see this. Thanks for your time.

Is there a format for the csv file? What can you do? Can you put them in to a member group? Set their pw? How exactly does this work? Is it possible to set a standard pw and force them to reset it when they log in? I have to make over 2000 and I don't want to email them individually to send their PW. Any suggestions? Thanks JM

The text editor never used to automatically hyphenate words but now with the current update (v.4.1.5) it is hyphenating words and even splitting member names up with hyphen. Is there some way to set the editor to NOT hyphenate any words?

Howdy folks, I remember in versions past we could create a topic, but before saving it we could preview it to make sure we were happy with how it looked, is this option still available somehow? Thanks for your help.
