Hello, Is there a option to disable reputation in certain sections of the board ? People usually get reputation by posting sh*t/funny stuff on Off-Topic, while people contributing on serious sections don't get the points they deserve. Thank you!

When editing page content for an Article Database, other than the standard {database="1"} in Articles content, is there a way to more finely control what is displayed on a more granular level ? I couldn't find any documentation on this on the IPS4 Docs.

Is it just me, however, I thought when multiple images were attached to a topic and you clicked on the thumbnail to enlarge, it would show the image in a lightbox...now when you click, it enlarges the image, however, you need to use the back button to get back to the topic. Thanks in advance!

Forgive me if I am missing it, however, is there a way to have a set group of prefixes that the topic author must choose from? For example, in a group of forums I want the author to have to be required select say a specific model of something. That way when people are scrolling through, they know the model that topic is for. Thanks in advance!

Hello, After watching this thread and seeing there was no plugin being available to do it, I guess I need to put my hands on it. However, as Recent Posts is a system widget, what should be the best approach to modify it? Or should I rather create a new plugin and mimic what the system widget does? Thanks!

I can upload images fine to the theme, and they work. However, after a while, overnight the first time, a few hours the second time, they are dropped. When I try to re-upload them I get an EX0 error The file names are there, but the thumbnails are gone. Any thoughts? The background processes fro the upgrade from 3 -> 4 are running. Could they be causing some problems? Thanks JM

Hello, In the past day I have been trying to achieve an optimal configuration for my forums in a dedicated server with the following specs: Atom™ N2800 / 2 cores / 1.86 GHz+ / 2Gb Ram I am using Nginx and PHP-FPM. I've tried switching from filesystem storage and database storage, along APC, XCache or Memcached. Every other options apart of the standard configuration that currently gives me an aprox. 1.7sec response time, every other option seems to be giving 2.4sec+ response time. I know of course it does add an extra overhead to the server, but shouldn't it be optimized to be fast instead of slower? Thanks

My site is for language-learning so I'm perfectly happy for people to upload files in their forum posts to help others with their pronunciation. If someone says "How do you say X?", then it makes sense to use sound rather than try to explain it with a description. But I'd like people to be able to play the files within the post, just as they would if it were embedded from something hosted elsewhere, such as YouTube or Soundcloud. This is a feature that we'd use a lot, so going to the trouble of uploading elsewhere when it's just a five-second clip really isn't much of an option. That doesn't seem possible to me. Sure, people can add .mp3 attachments but what appears in th…

I have upgraded it successfully to 4.0.13.1 and everything looks good. And after 4 days I realized today that one of the IP Content database is not showing any fields while displaying the records. I had a classifieds database having about 12-15 fields and only one is showing for image. Total disaster and my community members are getting furious with this now. Look's like a serious database conflict issue, as I reported this to support and they have been absolutely silent since few hours. Anyone thinking of upgrading from 4.0.13 to 4.0.13.1 please wait.

Community -> RSS/Atom Feed Imports. When Enabled for a particular feed, the RSS Pub Date is posted instead of the date that feed was posted on the forum, which does not render them chronologically. In the feed I have, there are two pub dates and unfortunately it grabs the second "pubdate" (The author's date - 2002). The first pub date is the current RSS date but neither are correct. The "Posted" date should be the date the RSS feed was posted. Small, issue I know and I contacted support which kindly sent a reply back that due to the nature of that issue it will take awhile - I am fine with that and fine with their response. Just want to let others be aware.

What is the easiest way in 4.0 to get a list of all the members with birthdays for a given month? In 3.x I can simply look at the month and can see all the members for each particular day in the month. In 4.0 it just lists "# Birthdays Today"

Hi I just upgraded from 3.4 to 4 and pretty well everything seems to work, with one exception... bbcode is not rendering. Instead I just see the raw tags. It is a test install on a clone of the live server. When I search for bbcode in admin I just get pointed at the customization toolbar. Additionally, I can't find a place to customize bbcode. What am I missing? How can I get the bbcode rendering? How do I add custom bbcode? Cheers John

I have a test install that I'd like to make live. Here's the process I'm doing to rename the folder. rename the current /ipb folder to /ipbX rename the test install folder to /ipb edit /ipb/conf_global.php changing the board_url to reflect the change edit .htaccess to reflect the change ... when I load the page it's missing styling elements. /admin is also missing styles. What am I missing? What else is referencing the old directory?
