How will the converter handle custom vBulletin 3.8 bbcode if IPS uses the same code, but in vB it is custom not stock? For example, I have custom spoiler and media tags, and they work exactly as they do in 3.4. So will the 4.1 converter (when ready) process them? Or is there some option in the converter? I can't afford to have the converter simply ignore them, it's a very old forum and these are crucial. I have these custom codes that work just like they do in IPS. [spoiler]text[/spoiler] [media]youtube URL[/media] Thanks!

Hey Guys, One of the extra fields you can add in Downloads is an extra editor and that's awesome, it performs exactly as it should EXCEPT and editor allows user to enter a lot more text, but the field displays in the sidebar instead of under the details pane? Can someone tell me how to get this extra field to display below the details pane in Downloads? Please and thanks!

Ok - in the ACP Permissions there is an option to allow 'can manage see settings' and by enabling this the admin can then indeed manage those options but when they click on the 'Launch Live Meta Tag Editor' they receive a permissions denied message. Which ACP permission grants action to this function please?

Hello, I downloaded and added this plugin to my forum: https://community.invisionpower.com/files/file/7330-portal/ I made a new block for my portal named Play Osaka: https://gyazo.com/fba3e7740bc84619b1ff8b6a7b379bc6 https://gyazo.com/9f6c0efc6e2c8746bb64e5ae88b3f955 But the name still shows up as example block (HTML), yet it uses the code from my play Osaka block. https://gyazo.com/f967df13b16edb59b0fc1ac489aade00 Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, -Sacha

i have 4.0.13.1 installed, no posts or content except for a downloads file.. I named, tagged and added to the description the word 'dragon' then approved it.. However, searching for this word gets zero results.. I then rebuilt the search index in the acp and ran it manually, still nothing.. Changing the word to anything has the same issue. Is there anything i should look for in php.ini or other server settings, my.cnf maybe, that could be preventing searches of Dowloads files?

I purchased vectron previously gamer ESC, I thought this was 4.0 compatitable as in the change log it said "use 1.0.1 for 4.0" so naturally I assumed I could download that file. After purchasing there is only a 4.1 file aand the developer has yet to respond via pm.

Hi, the area for widgets on the right side has moved to the bottom of the page-- like it has become a footer, rather than a sidebar. From the Block Manager on the left side of the page, there is no way for me to place widgets on the right side of the home page. I don't know what caused the problem. So, now I have only one column for the whole front end of the site, and it looks terrible, with the formerly right-hand widgets in a long column below the original main column of the site. Represented by text, the home page looks like this: +++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ …

For example, I want my nav bar to be "Forums" "Chat" "Members" "Rules" and if you click on "Members" it takes you to http://www.leagueforums.org/search/?type=core_members and if you click no "Rules" it takes you to the thread i put my rules on nav bar being this:

A few of my members are saying that since the upgrade they cant post in a certain forum. I have looked at the permissions and everything seems fine. Also, the reply box at the bottom of the page doesnt always load - it just shows the 'drag files here to attach box'. Any suggestions anyone?

Is there still the possibility to define custom BBcode (like in the past) and to edit existing BBcode? Can the spoiler be edited to allow a title that comes from [ spoiler=title here ] content [ /spoiler ]? In the past there was the possibility to toggle code/preview view in the editor. In code you would see all the BBcode and in the preview you would see how the BBcode looks, is this feature still available?

Hey, I found this guide https://www.invisionpower.com/support/guides/_/maintenance-and-server-configurations/transferring-community-to-a-new-server-r20 for Transferring Community to a New Server. But it seems to be out of date. Is there a new guide? Or can anyone write down the steps I have to do? My situation is that I want to deploy local developed IPS board to a server but there are some problems with the file url's and caching files. The Data Storage Method is MySQL and Requirements are OK except cURL (not allowed by host): You do not have the cURL PHP extension loaded (or it is running a version less than 7.36) and the allow_url_fopen PHP setting …
