Have been enjoying and building a new project with the IPS Suite over the past few days. Decided in getting IP.Content today in which several issues have come up. After purchase had a tough time in figuring out how to actually install it. Found an older thread that had someone going through the same issue. Following the advice given I downloaded files from client area and uploaded the cms folder into applications. Install went fine, no problems but now when trying to create a new database I'm met with this error Receiving it in blocks, templates and when trying to view the example articles.html. Also there are entries in the system log with the following 2015_07_12_t…

Hi, So after what appears to be a successful upgrade of the forums, I am unable to login to neither the admin page now the main site itself. If I click the "Existing user? Sign In" link at the top, instead of the log in popup panel being displayed nothing appears and instead a strange arrow appears instead. If I try and log into the admin site, I see the following: I thought at first it might be a CSS styling issue, but all the CSS links in the page source appear to work correctly and are viewable. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advanced

I've just been creating a custom skin on my forum with a large header that works fine on desktop but it way too big and complicated for mobile use, therefore I was wondering if there is any way I can set this template bit only to display on desktops instead of mobiles? I did notice this code which seems to call template bits only for mobiles, but is there a way to do the opposite and only call bits for desktop? {{if !in_array('ipsLayout_minimal', \IPS\Output::i()->bodyClasses )}}{template="mobileNavigation" if="theme.responsive" app="core" group="global" params=""}{{endif}}Best, Paul

Every time I upgrade, I run into some problems because I have both Developer's Mode and Designer's Mode enabled. Most recently, I lost my custom CSS updates when I upgraded. Can someone please suggest the correct order of steps to follow when upgrading with Developer's Mode and Designer's Mode enabled? Thanks. -- Roger

My blocks keep moving around, can I just allow admin to change it but not the moderators? cant find a setting... in the first place i thought every member can change their own blocks, which would have been much cooler

Is there a way to move a post? The only way I can find is to split/merge a thread and I just managed to totally mess up ten thousand links because I merged it wrong. I just want to move a post to a different thread. Is there another way I am just not seeing? It used to be easy. Tick the post click move post and enter the thread link.

I would like to remove ability for users to have animated GIFs as avatars. Disallowing the .gif extension would be the easiest way I think, but I cannot find the setting in AdminCP anywhere. Also, there seems to be no setting as to how big (in kB or in size) the avatar may be, or at least I could not find it. Could someone help me find these? /Edit Also another question. When doing updates (like 4.0.1 that was just released), these also update the main official theme code and CSS. I have created a copy of the official theme and made my own custom changes to it. Will my copy receive the fixes included in the update, or do I have to make a new copy every time there is a p…

Hi, I'm using Pages. If I've selected Pages to be the default app in the Applications list, should the Home link in the breadcrumb navigation (next to the little House symbol) take you to the first home page in Pages (the one you have selected to be the default page in the folder, in my case index.php)? Mine doesn't, instead it takes me to my forums. Many thanks.

Edit: OOPS I forgot there was a privacy setting for this. I don't like it when you can filter the online list by all user groups as there are some groups that needs to be hidden from view like it were in the IP.Board versions. Now all groups are exposed to users and guests and it's very uncomfortable. There are these usual groups like members and guests, but also moderators, administrators, banned and "secret group".

I am trying to convert my phpBB 3 site, I purchased a cloud plan last night and read thru the guide. It says to submit a ticket to "Hosting" but I can't find any in support drop down. I submitted to "Account Services" but am wondering if I submitted to the wrong area. Can I run the converter prior to hearing back? I don't want to keep my site down any longer than needed.

In 3.x is was pretty easy to assign moderation rights to a single user to a single sub forum, how can this be done in 4.x?
