I've been using blocks with IPB3 to export the first post of the latest topic with custom CSS to a website. (http://pyra-handheld.com/blog.html) This was done using <script type='text/javascript' src='http://boards.openpandora.org/external.php?id=20&k=b0e48a2b6c2bc6695d1fb4e7cc68bf7a&method=div' id='block-b0e48a2b6c2bc6695d1fb4e7cc68bf7a'></script> Now I'm trying to do the same thing with IPB4 - but I've run into some issues... 1. It totally ignores the setting which forum I want to use to view the post 2. How can I select that it will not show the LAST post in that forums, but only the FIRST post of the LATEST Topic…

Hi I have just updated from 3.4 to 4.0.13 on a test board. Loads of changes, and boy is it slow for many features... anyway, a few things didn't go too well. First thing I noticed was that bbcode wasn't parsed in most posts. I started a recache... which of course happens as the forums are used... unless I set up a cron job, with only myself and a couple of staff using the test board any actions like this are very, very slow. Impossibly so. So I looked to set up a cronjob. Trouble is, the cronjob that I am given in admin contains two "-d" options: -d memory_limit=-1 -d max_execution_time=0 but crontab rejects this line saying that "-d" is an invali…

Hello I hope I have placed this in the correct area, I'm trying to get the information on the logged in user of the IPB forum via my custom web application, but it always return a guest user. My application is part of the same website the forum is on. Here's the file structure to illustrate : - Website - forum (IPB install) - mods (my custom section) Here's what I use to get the details of the current IPB user : require_once "../forum/init.php"; \IPS\Session\Front::i(); $IPB_user = \IPS\Member::loggedIn(); The code above is working from time to time, but not all the time. It's not reliable and it's slow, there's a long delay between the moment t…

I issued a ticket on this already but haven't heard back and thought I would see if anyone else has seen this issue. In the Admin, if I try to view a member profile the screen goes blank. On the front end, if I use the search field to search on any term, it results in a blank screen. It also happens when you click on Advanced Search. This is happening on the the default theme and the custom theme and started happening after I upgraded to 4.0.13.1. Has anyone seen this?

When visit the IPS, the system show in the box that "The community administrator requires all members to sign in". Is it possible to let guests just view the forum without sign in, if they are interested in the forum then goto the sign in step.

I have a member who brought up a concern in our community forum. And I was wondering if I could stop the worry from spreading throughout my community. Here is the concern, a link to how malicious code can be buried into an image, and the code hacks the pc when the image is opened in a browser or in our case, from our community. Link http://motherboard.vice.com/read/how-you-can-get-hacked-just-by-looking-at-a-picture-online Can anyone more knowledgeable then us tell me if this is a big concern for online forum communities? Thanks folks

Since the upgrade to 4.1, my RSS feed from IPS into Outlook isn't displaying the brief description any more. It's just showing the View article link now.

I'm not seeing an option in the sitemap settings and Google is only picking up forums and pages that are pretty much unused as Commerce is my sites spotlight and landing.

Hello everyone. We just did a fresh install of the latest IPB 4.0. Most of of our users are doing fine, but we have a number of people having serious issues trying to load their images. When they click on the upload image button on their profile, or in the comment reply screen, they get a white screen and that is it. The user who reported this is in the UK and running Firefox with Flash on the browser. They do not have Flash installed on their computer, but they do have Java. They thought this information might be important. I did a search to see if anyone else was having this issue, but I don't see anything, so I would really appreciate some feed back. Not sure…

Hi @Rikki, I'm sorry to bother you… But I find your data-ipshover javascript functionality very exciting! It looks like it only works with internal URLs. I'm desperately looking to make it work with external URLs. Do you have any idea on how we could do that? Thank you so much

Adding code snippet with all the dependencies will crash the toolbar. The only thing to get it work again is to restore the Toolbar. Why is so difficult for the developers to fix the code colorisation with additional setup - no colorisation. As it is now the code tool build in is not very useful.

I plan on upgrading my old 3.4 boards to the latest IPB 4 version. Of course, before doing that on a live install, I tested it on a test installation. So I made a 1:1 copy of my site (only difference: subdomain and license key has -TESTINSTALL added) and ran the upgrade. The upgrade went without any issues - but IPB 4 seems to have issues. It has a LOT of slowdowns and often even times out. Part from the logfile: [Sat Sep 12 12:22:13.207015 2015] [core:error] [pid 17856] [client 87.134.20.133:58870] End of script output before headers: index.php, referer: http://betaboard.openpandora.org/admin/?adsess=etoc0kihlotnc33mndhkop8f40&app=core&module=customization&c…
