Since 4.1 removed Sphinx, I need to get the SQL search working for my forum. The primary item I need is the ability to search hyphenated words. Here's what I have tried: In /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ I edited latin1.xml (where character_set_server and character_set_database point to) and in the ctable entry changed 10 to 01 in the 3rd row 14th column (0x2D) I then restarted mysql and even apache, rebuilt the search index and still am unable to search for hyphenated words. Can anyone help me with what I may be doing wrong?

Hi guys, I'm trying to fix this issue, but I can't find a solution. This is my board, and the problem is that the header ads (Responsive) pushes the sidebar on the right exceeding the content width. I tried to force a max-width putting the script inside a div with a style, (you can see the right width highlighted in blue), but it does not work. Any idea? Thanks! Alex

OK, I'm running IPB v3.4.7 and want to install a test forum with v4.0.13.1 on a sub-domain. I got errors: So basically I need to install php v5.4, correct? If I install php 5.4 on my GoDaddy shared hosting, will it break my current forum running v3.4.7 on php 5.2.17? Or will the forum automatically recognize the php upgrade and still work?

So I recently underwent a partnership with a fellow member of the IPS community to combine our sites. Two weeks later, I strongly regret that and I see exactly how stupid I was xD. He's having a bit of tantrum(claims to have multiple personalities). I discovered that he edited a few user accounts and placed them in my usergroup (Giving them full powers that I had and that he lacked). Quite frankly, I am disappointed that IPS doesn't have a better way to protect the super admin...it seemed way easier on IPB3 but I digress. So now my site is a bit jacked up and not working. I want to do a clean install of everything....Is this possible? 1. I know …

I am trying to enable the "Rewrite URLs" option under Search Engine Optimization. My .htaccess looks like: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico)(\?|$) /404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> For the most part, it seems to be working correctly. But when I go to IP.Downloads (http://website.com/files/) it doesn't load the application, but instead downloads a file called download.htm Anything I can do to resolve this?

Hi, Installed IP.Download not long ago but problem with it is when me or my friend uploads a 76MB file it says file was uploaded successfully since it says Done but once we click submit the download file appears as Size 4MB and when we download file we only get 4MB from it instead of 76MB and i have been through every settings in admincp cannot find any limit there and servers php.ini is set to 200M limit per file on upload yet file converts from 76MB to 4MB which is really weird :/ I hope there is a way to solve this since it's annoying us alot.

While using 4.1.3.2 (also happened in 4.1.2) if I try to set a caching method from Advanced Configuration->Data Storage, after setting the constants file and saving, the site becomes incredibly slow for about 10 seconds, and then just starts returning Error 500 page until I restart php to give myself enough time to quickly change the caching method back to no caching. I've tried both Memcached and Redis, both of which I can confirm are installed and running. Also tried using them both with Data Storage Method of File System or MySQL Database, no matter the combination once the site becomes unusable my error logs start spitting out constant error messages similar …

With 3.4 I was able to use this resource and a certain amount of brain juice to make custom blocks that would, for example, give me a feed of post from new members, of highest rated posts for the week, etc. For example the following looks for posts made in the last day, by members with less than five posts. The idea is that staff can use this to find those posts and make sure new members are being welcomed, finding the info they need, etc. $onedayago = time() - (86400); $this->DB->build( array( 'select' => 'p.pid, p.author_name, p.author_id, p.post_date, p.queued, t.title, t.approved, m.posts', 'from' => array( 'posts' => 'p'), 'where' =…

I can't seem to get a bunch of the sidebar widgets to display. Like popular now, announcements, etc. It states that they might need to be configured. How or where do I configure them? Also, with widgets like "status updates" etc... there is no way to prevent non-members from seeing them other then a skin hack? Is that right? Was hoping this was a setting in 4... Thanks!

I've manage to really mess up my Manage forums area by adding a custom URL in a Add a new category instead of adding it in a Add New Forum As you can see in the picture you cannot edit or delete the category, I've even found a button to click delete and when i did it just took me to the custom url. Is there a way to delete this in the filezilla folders or in mysql? i cannot delete it through admin CP If anyone can help me from my stupid mistake i will really appreciate it thank you.

Hi all, For some reason I recall being able to enable/disable post increment by group in individual forums in 3.x. Or am I remembering incorrectly? This would be useful to have, because for some groups, I want to disable post increment in certain forums. :S Or maybe the setting is there, but I'm just having trouble finding it...? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
