You used to be able to set a Downloads Category as a "folder" and so that it would just list files from sub-categories, but that doesn't seem to work like that anymore by default. Is it possible to just set a Downloads Category as a parent folder, and allow uploads only to sub-folders? Yes, you can use permissions to disallow submissions to the parent folder, but when you browse the parent folder it shows up empty until you browse to a sub-folder. It would be nice to treat the parent as just a folder and just output all new items from the sub-folders... Has anyone set it up like this?

Is there a way to have advertisement images resized or disabled when viewing the site on a mobile device? Had a look on my phone and the layout is good but the advertisements go off the page generating a lot of horizontal scroll.

I have been trying to upgrade my community from 3.4.7 to 4.0.8 but I can't run the upgrade. Every time I go to the upgrade path, I get the following error: An error occurred (500 Error) We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now. You can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later. I have converted the database and this was confirmed as being completed. The files were re-uploaded and I still get the error Is there something I am missing or doing wrong?

Hello, I am on 4.0.8.1 - I would like to know how I can embed external content into a new CMS html page. This page will have a link on the top nav menu and then inside the CMS frame will call the external webpage content. I tried using jQuery and such, but that doesn't seem to fly. Is there a "standard" way of doing this? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Some background first: I created a copy of the Recent Images gallery Widget using the plugin format for templates and css. It works in dev mode, but not in "live" mode. So, I downloaded the widget, deleted the existing copy, and uploaded it out of dev mode. It works in live mode now. So there must be some database trickery in the background for installing the widget into the system outside of dev mode. The Issue: When I go into dev mode, after uploading the XML copy I downloaded earlier and then uninstalled, my widget doesn't have the template file anymore. The CSS and PHTML files are not created on the disk. So the moment you go into DEV mode with a widget, it'll stop wo…

Hey, I got the group collabriation add on to my IPB and i got the friendly urls activated. However, my goal is, to overwrite an url from the group collaboration so its dedicated to the community.

I've just moved from vbulletin4 to ipb3 and on to ipb4. All data was copied over nicely. I've first installed IPB in a /ipb folder and now moved it to my root folder. Everything seems fine except for the images of my theme. Every image now displays a small square. I can't find anything in admincp to rebuild the theme's cache or input the theme location. Any pointers?

I would like to know if IPS 4 creates thumbnails or many different images sizes of the images uploaded on text editor and on custom database field type upload. I know that Gallery creates many images in different sizes based on the image uploaded. But does the core have the same function? The thumbnail size can be customized? If there is no thumbnail on text editor and custom databases fields is there a way to implement the Gallery function on them? Thanks!!!

Hi, I have already installed IPS4 with a few applications. Now that I need Pages application, I renewed it. But I don't know how to install a single application? It says I need to "Select the .tar application distribution you would like to install", but where do I get the .tar? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
