My site has been rather inactive for several years. So if I must make a mistake. It's not critical. I'm trying to delete in the members list many members that appear to be bogus. Is there a way to select that many of these and just delete no one Swope, kinda like a filter. Also, when a click on spammers. Is there a way to deselect one or 2 and then follow with a delete? Bob

Hi, we have a "Team" conversation in our messenger and one of the team members has mistakenly left the conversation. His name is now greyed out at the top and I can not work out how to re-invite him in to the conversation opposed to having to start a new conversation and re-invite everyone. There's some valuable information in that conversation, hence the desire to invite him back in opposed to create a new conversation. Any pointers? Or can it be done in the database?

I'm sure this must be easy, I just can't find it. I want to re-name the Downloads module to Manuals, similar to this site changing it to "Marketplace" Where is this change made?

I've posted it in the bug report but unsure what you guys think? - I went on Pages, Made a simple block on a blank page, and It only shows 1 Recent Image even if set to 3/5/10. I don't see this in any forum or bug report so was unsure if maybe I did something wrong? - Not sure how as i've not edited any code.

Hello, Recently moved back to IPB from Discourse. Not sure what to search and I looked all over the the admin panel however basically when a user posts a twitter link, it automatically posts the tweet. However, it seems a bit broken on my side. First, the styling isn't the greatest which I would love to edit if I could but not sure where to go yet. Second, the links don't work unless you right click and open in new tab. Tested on Firefox and Chrome, both latest versions. Thanks for any insight!

I just started a new board, and a new install of IPB 4.0 about a week ago. Today when I went to embed a youtube video, I tried to unlink the link in my post, and hit the < > ... then I get a popup that looks like it is going to load the dialog screen, and nothing happens. The post in question is at http://www.fibertothepress.com/index.php?/topic/14-april-15th-2014-wait-ave/&do=edit

I have set a number of groups on my website. I set a limit for the one group to only be allowed to post once every 24 hours. I created a forum topic as an admin and then logged in with a test account. I moved the test account from "members" to "my limited group" and I can still post as many times as I would like. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good Morning (in my timezone)... Am looking at upgrading a 3.1 community to 4.0, as well as changing the current url structure from domain.com/forum to forum.domain.com, and moving to a complete new hosting environment (AWS). I'm curious as in to what the best order to do things in? I also can't find any direct info on whether or not I can actually upgrade from 3.1 to 4.0, or if I have to go from 3.1 to 3.4 to 4.0. For upgrade testing purposes I'm looking at: Upgrading to 4.0 on existing installChanging domain/url path on existing serverMigrating to new serverAnything I'm particularly missing here?

In 3.x we always had to delete a file in Admin/Install to secure the board. Is this still the case with 4.x? I don't see any messages in Admin, so I'm not sure if this is still the case.
