I recently converted and upgraded from SMF to - > 3.X.X to --> 4.x.x My root install folder (smf) was at www.mydomain.com/forum/ on 3.x and when I upgraded I installed to www.mydomain.com/forums/ <--- the same but I added an "S" on forums I liked it because I could still access my old forum and I could also access my new forum. However, I see that many people are trying to log in at the old location. They must be using outdated links. Google has lots of link juice and old references too. Should I try and do some fancy regex redirect or should I simply change my new directory to "forum" instead of "forums"?

Is there a way to detect/edit/create a Menu Item Type in the Menu Manager? The reason I ask is that I would like to add easy access to some of my Store's categories to the menu using the type of smart application linking that is already available for the store itself. Some of the dropdowns already available for the Store's stored cards, addresses, personal info, etc. are already included. Is there a way to get store categories and sub-categories tossed in the mix, dynamically?

Is there a better way of removing old attached files and images. I have upgraded from 3.x to 4.x I was trying to use the "Insert other media" and I noticed many file showing 0bytes. So I went to attachments and can't find them there. I did find some that are no longer needed as the posts are probably gone and years old. When I go into attachments and find the one I'm looking for by selecting the image tab, sorting by date, then by member and click "delete". It deletes the image fine. It then throws you back to the very first page and you have to reselect Image, date, member each time you want to delete a file. If you have several this can take forever. Is it sup…

Hi, I have just upgrade my IPS 3.4.8 community and have some issues. The worst for me is this one : All old image attachments don't appear on forum posts, but when I edit the post I can see the image attachment Do you know how to resolve this issue ? Should I have to wait rebuilding background processes ? My website is now very very slow, maybe the background processes make it slower ? Thank you !

Now that we've got HiDPI smileys, is there a way (in 4.1) to add other HiDPI assets? I'm most interested in our organization's logo, of course, but there are a lot of graphical assets in our boards that would benefit from having a HiDPI version available.

Hi there, Since I've upgraded to 4.1 from 3.xx, I've noticed that the notifications doesn't tell us anymore who did what. For example, if someone like a comment i've made, i'll receive a notification saying "someone" like your comment in .... Same thing for actual likes. We cannot see who like what for example. Is there a way to set it up so that we have access to those informations? Thanks guys

Hi there, since a few days (4-5) my users experience some outages while using the chat. I received a few mails from the error log daemon (error code 5H268/6 - The server can't connect to the IPS-chat server) and some chat messages are doubled or deleted. Does anyone have the same issues?

I've been attempting to do a test upgrade of my forum from 3.x to 4.1 on my local machine via WAMP however the upgrade process keeps getting stuck with the following nondescript error: It doesn't matter if I click 'retry' or 'continue' - it just repeats the same thing. How do I troubleshoot this issue - is there an error log somewhere with more detail about what the problem is ?

I have a member using Firefox who cannot post on the message board. When she uses Chrome she doesn't have that problem. There never was a problem before upgrading to IPS4. I had her delete cookies and try again, but it still doesn't work. Are there any suggestions as to why Firefox won't let her post?

How can we check the difference between Android in-app WebView or just the Android browser, same for iOS I want to hide some Adsense code with php when the website is runned from the in-app webview. But when the app is runned just from the mobile browser it can show Adsense.

I'm totally confused by Pages. On IP.Content I had my news articles displayed nicely on my home page, and was able to have other non-news articles on different pages of my site but they all used 1 index.php page. Using Pages, my news and non-news articles are still in the same database called Articles, but if I add the Database to my Home/News page, set it to 'Show as articles on homepage', select only the News category to show, select one of the new templates in 4.1, it still insists on showing every article from all of my categories and not just my news articles. I was told by tech support some months ago I had to create a second page to display my other artic…

Id like to have Jr. Admins have the ability to edit others posts... Where do you set the permissions for that. Thanks Rene
