Hello, I've got some problems with adding URLs / additional pages to the menu. My menu, in its basic form, looks like this: Pages - Forum - Gallery - Calendar However, when I create a custom item (external URL or page) in ACP > Pages > Menu, instead of looking like this: Pages - Forum - Gallery - Calendar - Ext URL - Etc. - Etc. it all looks like this: Ext URL - Forum - Gallery - Calendar Simply: the basic menu items disappear and custom items replace them (or cover them) one by one. How can I fix it so the custom menu items would be simply added at the end of menu bar? Thank you in advance.

Hello, We have an old phpBB board that we want to dump and convert over to IPB 4. So we have had a HUGE amount of issues on the way, one wich involve Collation. Important Note: We are Swedish and thus write mostly in Swedish on our board. So what we need to do is first install IPB 3.4.8, Convert phpBB into IPB 3, and then upgrade it to IPB 4. At the upgrade part it dose NOT ask to convert database and somehow ALL Swedish special letters like Å Ä Ö gets ed up, as seen below. Now, the phpBB is in utf8_bin and when I install IPB 3 its done in utf8_unicode_ci. And it works, no errors or even wierd letter replacements for Å Ä Ö. But as soon as I upgrade to 4.0.11/12/12…

Hi, twice under version 4 the table structure has changed requiring me to modify the SQL query in the attached php script, the most recent change has me stumped as I'm not able to find where the "Group names" are stored like they were prior to the change. The only table I can find them in is "core_sys_lang_words" however I don't know how to use this to create the query linking the information together (I'm not a programmer) I've tried support and you can imagine what they said. I run this script as a cronjob, essentially it grabs members of a group, purchase date information (expiry dates etc) and inserts it into another database I have. I'd really appreciate some assista…

Hi, I don't know if I have translated the widget's name correctly though I think everyone knows which widget I am talking about. I think this plugin is not working properly. It always shows as if I were the only one browsing "downloads" app, which is not possible. Moreover, if I open "who's online" and go to any of the sections that any user is visiting, it shows the same, no one but me. Is anyone in this situation? Regards, Ibai

Anyone ran into this problem yet? I've searched around and haven't seen. I'm trying to move my community to IPB 4.0 but getting stuck on the UTF-8 conversion process. My community has about 1.6m posts and the converter gets stuck on the "Processing posts" part. I don't know how to get around this. I've actually checked the database, and it seems it has converted all of them, but the converter still says its processing them.

In Version 3 I could re-send validation emails to all those awaiting validation (listed in the same page). It looks like Version 4 only allows me to re-send validation emails one user at a time. Am I missing something?

I have a database (no categories) set up to display records as articles. It's added to a page to make a simple directory of sorts and I'm happy with that for now. I'd like to be able to mark certain records as Featured and promote them to display on the front page, *exactly as they do on the records-as-articles* page. This seems like an obvious choice for a feed plugin and it *almost* works except that it appears that feed plugins use the listing group template. I get errors if I try to use a different template group such as normal featured article template. I'm at a loss as to how to create a "listing" template that works as the 'records-as-articles' templates do, with …

Hi there, All my old post's links are broken. None of them have a "href" so they point to the same page. Is anyone having the same issue after upgrading to 4.0.x? I upgraded from 3.4.x to 4.0.11. Any script to rebuild every link? Example: http://www.fmsite.net/foro/forums/topic/76720-2º-reto-dmc-the-dreamer/ http://www.fmsite.net/foro/forums/topic/72318-kits-fb-temporada-2014-2015/ As you can see, old links miss their HREF tag. Am I the only one?

Have yet to receive an answer to my "Product Assistance" ticket, so asking here: Where is the Full and Complete Documentation of the Pages App? I found the following URL's: https://www.invisionpower.com/support/guides/_/ips-community-suite-apps/ip-cont/https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/administration/pages/Is that it? There seems to be so much more functionality and ability to do with Pages and Integration among the suite that surely there has to be more detailed documentation, termplating, databases, etc? Am I just not seeing where to locate a single centralized, Complete Documentation (preferably with examples and detail descriptions)? Anyone know if one exists …

I'm having a major pages index issue and thought I would make a thread to see if anyone has any ideas on this. I just submitted this to support but like to see if maybe I can get a quicker solution, maybe I've done something wrong here. Not sure. I ran the SEO checker and had these errors in the screenshot. The 2 errors I'm concerned with is url and ip canonicalization errors which are easy to fix server side. These are supposed to be simple fix errors which my host did perform however they noticed issues after making the corrections and had to remove the corrections due to ===================================== Hello, We have found the reason the forum does not wor…

So, I'm curious about how this works. I pay 75$ for the application for my IPS 4.0 and then it runs just fine and dandy. At the end of the year, does it lock out? And then it's not available afterward...? Or is that just a 1-time buy in and then the 55$ renewal is to purchase further updates after the year is up?
