So I'm having trouble tacking down an issue for a member. This member seems to be the only one that is having any issues but it is more likely that she is the only one pointing it out. Now first thing is that I can't duplicate these issues and when I try to duplicate them I either can't replicate them at all or else my bugs happen differently. So far it's specific to using BBCode but things like using the URL= code she states that her cursor pops to the beginning (just after the equal sign) and then adds these spaces that she must delete. Making changes etc does the same thing, always pops her to the equal sign and adds the spaces. Also using align BBCode doesn't work whe…

I upgraded a 3.4.7 forum to the latest IPB 4 and the UI does not work the way it should. I can't close IPB's drop down menus once they're opened. Here, the menu opens when I click my name on the top right corner and closes when I click again. On my site, it does not close. The only way to get rid of it is to click on another link. I have the same problem in ACP, clicking my name opens the "Change detail/Signout menu" but then I can't close it. ACP Search gone ?? In IPB 3 there is the search box on the top right corner, you type something and brings up everything that contains the string from settings, pages, members etc. I don't have this in IPB 4, has it been re…

Hey, I'm wondering if there is a secret behind the online userlist. We noted since a switch from phpbb to ipb4 a fall of online users from 50-60 down to 20 active. After several days observing that, we added on another site a session logger where the user automatically logs in after logging to our forum. The other site displaying active sessions from the last 15 minutes and this includes the amount of online users we had previously (50-60). We also asked not to log off from the forum and simply let the session expire. How is this possible? Is there any known fact regarding this? We never used a faker for online users and won't do that just as small side information. But i…

Our board is hosted and has the latest updates. Since the last one, though, we've noticed 2 things. 1) Cover images can be repositioned, but the new position doesn't save. 2) We're getting the error message below. It's fine after being refreshed, but it's still frustrating to see this so often. Sorry, there is a problem Something went wrong. Please try again.Error code: EX2

Once you post a Youtube link in the editor and click submit, it automatically embeds the player in to the body of your post. However, the default setting has the player much to large. How can I reduce the size of the player. I'm totally loss about are there or aren't there BB codes and where to find to them.

I know that with IP Board 3.0+ you were able to select a sub-forum and make it where any post created in that sub-forum would not appear in the "Recent Topics" side-bar module. Is this no longer supported with IP Board 4.0+ as I cannot find a way to do this.

Just upgraded to 4.0.9.2 and am getting the pages up fast however looking at the bottom left it says as it seems to keep loading the page "Establishing secure connection", then it blips back and forth to "Wiating for designzshop.com" for about 10 seconds no matter what page I go to. Anyone else experience this running full https? I don't have this issue using 4.0.8 on a different site on the same server, this just happened after upgrading my theme site.

So i upgraded to ipb4 about 6 days ago. the background process started and was moving at what seemed a normal pace then after about 3 hours hit a point were it pretty much doesn't move at all. Over the past 6 days its moved 2 percent for the 3 bars that are moving in the background process. if i click run manually it starts to run it normally for about 2 minutes then gets stuck in some sort of loop where it just refreshes and shows the '>' symbol were it should say what it's processing. This is annoying because the forum is down unil the background process is complete and it looks like it will be down for over a week. (ill also note we have 470k members and just as man…

In the ACP, I have changed the search type to Sphinx. Server address is 127.0.0.1 listening on port 3313. I have taken the sphinx.conf file and placed it in the forum root directory and started sphinx: searchd --c /home/whadmin/public_html/sphinx.conf and it starts up fine. When I click "rebuild index" in the ACP I get an error "EX1064 Something went wrong. Please try again." It doesn't appear that the sphinx.conf file is complete compared with 3.4

After the most recent update to IPS 4.0.9 (I believe) I can't remember where to find it, the Featured Topic block seems to have gone away. I didn't create this custom. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this back?
