Hi! Wondering if anyone else had similar problem. I moved from vB4 to IPB. Done everything pretty well, going through all the tips, trick and manual. First I moved to IPB 3.x and performed conversions. Everything was well, pages worked as should, no issues. After going with upgrade to IPB 4.x pages got messed up. I still don't quite get how the Pages works under the hood and thus don't have a clue what should I be looking to try to fix this. I've asked support for this and I this reply: Although I can understand this, I can't get past my frustration of not even knowing how to get to solving this problem. Attached is a screenshot of the situation.…

Hi! I purchased and installed Download app on my forum, trying to setup & test it. I added a few categories, then deleted them, then added one category again. When I'm trying to upload file here <forum>/files/ I select "submit file", then select category in popup dialog, "Continue" and then I get infinite loop on this URL: <forum>/files/submit/?_new=1 I select category, then Continue, then again the same. What is it and how it can be fixed? Thanks!

Ok, here is one of my first actual questions on howto. I normally nut these out myself, but this one has me stumped. When making a se submissions using the Pages addon, there is an option to post to a forum, however there is no option to take someone to that forum after the post is made. What I am doing is using the pages for the form, keeping the page submissions not viewable, instead having them viewable in the forum, where there are better viewing rules. Once someone submits a form though. What I would like is the ability to redirect them to the forum post of the form. To be honest I am surprised that this is not already an option. The main reason…

Hello, I'm a bit new here bought the software not long ago to have a community for my application. I want my users to be able to login to my application through using their IPS usernames and passwords. I also would like to add these users to the online list and I'm not exactly sure exactly what approach to use since there's a couple of different ones. I've seen these approaches: https://github.com/sijad/IPS4RemoteLogin https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/single-sign-on-sso-r98/ https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/custom-login-handlers-r97/ but i can't tell which one would be the right approach, a…

I'd like to use SSL for my whole IPB (4.1) installation. First I enabled the 'https for admin logins' option in the admin panel, but this resulted in a redirect loop. After disabling that option, I tried to replace http with https in 'base_url' in conf_global.php, but this also gave me a redirect loop. Is there something else that needs to be changed? Thanks!

I was getting tired of a slow shared server and moved to a VPS. Now I have at least two issues. Email does not send, none. Search returns an error. See below. I asked the host to look at this, they said ask the vendor, there's nothing wrong with the serer. I fear asking IPS because I'm on 4.0.13.1 and they'll say many errors have been fixed with the newest version and I need to upgrade before getting help. Both email and search worked before the move. I suspect this is something simple I just don't understand. Any help on this is appreciated.

I want to test all the features and html elements of the current theme in order to style them properly before making my forum live. But I can't see all the elements that need styling without pages and pages of topics and messages. For example, I want to see how different member ranks look, how hot topics look, how pagination looks, how banned users look, etc. Is there a way to fill up the forum with sample content, and then an easy way to delete all that content before I go live? Thanks!

After I upgraded to IPS 4 many blog entries contain formatting as shown below: [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]Some text.....[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]Some more text from user.... [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] This is probably some formatting from Word when users pasted content from Word.

Newbie el grande, so have patience plz Just locked myself out from the forum admin backend by uploading a .xml theme for 4.x: Fatal error: Call to undefined method IPS\Theme\class_core_admin_global::js_general() in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/system/Theme/Theme.php(627) : eval()'d code on line 1097 The only thing I did was to make it default.

I am still having major issues with the Pages application. Most often the selectors to tailor content just don't work. I thought some of this was going to be part of the upgrades scheduled for September, but the selectors still work very infrequently. In this case, the Calendar block. I cannot select a calendar to draw the feed from. I have the community and one additional calendar that I created to test the feature. Trying to unselect "use all" in the edit block effort, I can unselect all, but nothing appears in the pull down. Is this just another known bug in the Pages application? Is there any ongoing work to get back some of the specific tailored fu…
