Hello, I have a problem since yesterday. I do not know if this is related to the update that I did. I do not see the possibility to make status updates for everyone. When I look into the options group, I have "Can post status updates?" : OK (for all groups) but I need to turn this setting on each status individually for that we can post your status.

To be clear, I'm going to add all the provided robots.txt sample stuff into my live robots.txt. But 98% of our forums are member only and private. The other 2% are viewable by public but with no posting privileges. Nothing in the robots.txt can make the search engines see or index our member only content correct? It will just show the areas that are visible to guests by that permission set? Just verifying... Thanks!

Hi, We have a big issue here, users can't connect to our forums since about 3 hours ago and get an EX0 error. I have opened a ticket but I'm posting this here also. We need it to get fixed ASAP. We also can't log in to the ACP because we are getting the same EX0 error. http://www.gtanf.com/forums/ Any ideas please?

IPS community, I would like to disallow the Import by URL option for Profile Photos: I was able to remove the options visually and comment parts of the code related to it in: applications/core/modules/admin/members/members.php and, applications/core/modules/front/members/profile.php but unfortunately this feature still seems to be available. Removing this feature visually does not satisfy my needs. I would like to have it gone completely (visually + systematically) How do I disallow this feature completely so the web server does not send a request to download the image for CORS reasons. Could I be guided into the right direction? Thank you…

I know the if condition should look something like this: {{if $record->category == 1}} {{endif}} But I can't figure out how to format it properly.

Hi, There are no rel="next" / rel="prev" tags in paginated topics. In paginated forums these tags are existing. I don't understand why it is like that, but what and where can I add these tags to topics? I found in Table.php following lines of code: /* Add link tags */ if ( $this->page != 1 ) { \IPS\Output::i()->linkTags['first'] = (string) $this->baseUrl->setQueryString( $this->paginationKey, 1 ); \IPS\Output::i()->linkTags['prev'] = (string) $this->baseUrl->setQueryString( $this->paginationKey, $this->page - 1 ); } if ( $this->pages > $this->page ) { \IPS\Output::i()->linkTags['nex…

Hi there. I wanted to get rid of some of the stuff next to the user name on the side of posts that's going to be nonsensically extraneous for my forum. (Some of this stuff I'm not even entirely certain what it's for, even after doing several searches in here (must be using the wrong keywords, which tends to be a problem with stuff like this) and am not finding any guides that seem current version of IPB specific.) I did find the area for Ranks inside the ACP, but it seems to just give me the option of adding new, editing the default options, or deleting them all. I was tempted to just delete them all, but I don't know if that messes up the formatting somehow? …

I just got 1000 users online on my own site. and i think something nefarious went on. Site didn't go down or go slow so it cant be ddos. but i checked the logs and they went to tons and tons and tons of WP pages. That obviously dont exist since this is ips.

Hi! I would like to incert a member in a sentence in the "rules" section in a forum. Like this "for any concern pm >Blablabla<." And you should be able to click on a link leading to its profile. Is that possible? And also, I am creating members of my own as moderators, and they have "fake" emails. So any email sending to them will go out to nowhere. Is there any possiblity that I can make them go to my own email? Like I get a notice if someone Pm's one of the moderator account?

In an effort to curb spam, I put a limit of 5 posts per day that should have been removed after 1 day: I had a member who had already posted 20 times and had joined a week or so ago who complained that he could post only five times before he was shut down for the day. I signed in to his account and could see the same thing: he was unable to post more that day. So, is this a bug? Did I read this properly? Can others see the same thing on their site?

Hi, I'm currently setting up a test forum in a different root. I've already made sure the conf_global.php directs to the new URL and MySQL databases. I've had to manually set commands during the upgrade, which were all successful. However, I cannot get passed this error: Table 'DATABASE_NAME.cms_page_widget_areas' doesn't exist /home/***/public_html/pope/system/Db/Select.php::390 If I click "Retry?" or "Continue" I'm still redirected back to this error. Does anyone know what's wrong here?
