Hi people. Sorry for the 100 questions. My experience in anything Web related is limited. First off - I have finally got my site open so thanks to those who helped previously. The problem is I have selected IP Pages to be my default, but now my forums become /index.php/forums (I installed the IPB software straight to root rather than /forums/ as it will be my only content on the site - was that right?), is there a way to do away with this? Please see www.findyourselfuk.com. the first page is a custom IP Page as index, the forums then go to /index.php/forums/....... Can it not be pages as the default them forums go to findyours…

Hi After looking around for a host I think I have found one. After speaking to the sales team, I asked them to check the requirments of IPB with their requirements. He assured me all was well except for the fact they do not run on Suhosin but they on fact run on suphp. I am not a technical expert by no means. Will this affect my ability to have a 4.1 IPB forum uploaded or not? Karl

1. For business reasons (eg mergers), it is sometimes required to have 2 URLs pointing to the SAME forum. eg http://www.xyz.com/forum and http://www.abcdef.com/forum2. Can this be done at all ? 2. My DNS points www.xyz.com and www.abcdef.com to the same IP Now conf_global.php $INFO['board_url'] = http://www.abc.com/forum But I cannot find a place to put the 2nd URL Thank you.

I submitted a support ticket but wanted to alert other members that they may want to hold off on version 4.1.4.1 OR, if they are logged in as a member they might want to log out and look at their forum. Yesterday I upgrade to the latest, checked the forum and everything looked okay. This morning I checked the forum and saw the below error. The difference was that I was not logged in. When I logged in I could see the forum again. Obviously not a good thing for the many guests I get. "Something went wrong. Please try again. Error code: EX2"

Hi, I'm trying to update from 4.0.13.1 to 4.1.4.1. I uploaded the downloaded folder to my forum through FTP as always, but system check tells me there are no applications to upgrade. Any suggestion? Thanks

I'm pulling some stuff into Pages from my database and it's automatically sorting everything by 'date created'. I tried sorting the database (in database settings) but that will only sort the database category page, and there are no options in Pages to select the order in which things are sorted. Does anyone have a good method for automatically sorting/reordering the contents of databases in Pages? @Lindy @Charles Would this be considered a bug if the database setting isn't honoured by Pages or not? Personally, I think the setting in the database should override the default setting on all pages related to the database.

Hello, I have a problem with IPS 4.1.4.1. Although I don´t check the Moderator box "Show that the message has been edited"... ... it would be shown a comment "Edited just now by XXX": In IPB 3 I didn't have the problem. Is this a bug? Can I disable the "edited by" function?

Hi, I use a database in the PAGES system. I would like to use the "user" field to give data access. If I use only one user, all it's ok {{if member.member_id == $record->field_20}} For now, I put 2 user in my user field and this code does work. My field # 20 gives me this result for my 2 users: 206,1 (for the user 206 and user 1) I want to make a condition based on user entered into the fields. I'm test this, but it does not. {{if member.member_id == in_array( member.member_id, array($record->field_20) )}} Thank's for your support... Stef

In IP.Content I could decide for each database field, if and how it would appear in forum topics, if it got posted there. How is that done in Pages? In the field settings I see nothing to set this up anymore. And when I look at the template which is probably used, there is just a foreach loop for “topicFields”. But where are those fields defined? {{foreach $record->topicFields() as $id => $field}} {$field|raw} {{endforeach}} <br> <p><a href="{$record->url()}">{lang="content_view_record" sprintf="$record::database()->recordWord( 1 )"}</a></p>

Is it possible to make the activity stream the default stream for everyone? I'd like to replace the 'unread' link on the bar beneath the menu, I realise you can if you change the default stream yourself but is there a way to do this globally (for all members).

Before when I checked "Remember me" I could stay logged in here for months / forever, now it seems like it's max a week or something. Have you changed some setting? Because it's going on my nerves each time I need to log in.

Dear All I've just upgraded to Version 4 and am struggling a little Firstly, I've installed a hook which displays recent topics & posts in the sidebar. However our sidebar disappeared in the upgrade and I've no idea how to replace it. Secondly, I've installed an App (Messages) - I've enabled it, added a Message, but it doesn't show. I'm fairly sure I'm doing something wrong and it may be related to the above. Any ideas?? Many thanks Bill

Hello, I'm new to ips (and php fwiw) and I have a hard time with it. If pretty sure the answer is somewhere in these forums / documentation, but I just couldn't find it (or understant it maybe...). I am developping a website for a game and I use IPS community suite for its forum. But I would also like to use it to record scores etc... for users. So I would like that people could log from any page of the website / and have access to their id / name. I will put everything else in another database with these infos. Having access to their name / id is ok, but I'd like to use the userBar template on every page and I don't understant how to make it work. …
