Hi, Do do I add / change registration questions from the control panel? And add other login fields like twitter / facebook etc. I can't find it. What is the best way to access the entered information to make lists and graphs etc? Is it a bad idea to disable reCaptcha? Best, Stig

I'm currently converting as much of IP.Board 3.4.7 to my own custom forum software as possible. However, IP.Board stores its passwords as MD5, which are stored in another layer of MD5 (according to the docs). My software stores passwords as SHA-256. Both use salt with the same hashing method as they hash their passwords. Is there a way to convert IP.Board passwords to SHA-256 passwords? I tried doing so through MySQL, but that command doesn't work (requires a library, I'm afraid of modifying such important services on a production server). And why did this get deleted? Some kind of propaganda?

How can you connect to external database using Mysqli or PDO with current application setup? I've tried a lot of things and with both I get errors respectively "mysqli_connect(): Headers and client library minor version mismatch. Headers:50541 Library:50624" for mysqli and namespace errors for PDO. I couldn't find anything which would help me in the code itself. Your documentation is kind of lacking in case of writing applications.

I would need to convert blogs from vb 4.2 to 4.0.8.1. I get this answer from support: "To clarify you can still convert your blogs yourself the same as you converted your board before for free. Just make sure you have vB set as your parent conversion. You may want to try it on a test installation on your server. " How i can do that? Should i first convert to 3.4 and then to 4.0.8? And then move database shells.

So I still have old links ( previous forums url ) stored in old posts the every so often people will complain the link doesn't work. Is there any way to use the friendly URL to redirect these to new post - using the convert tables? and not have to maintain the old php scripts showpost.php Ideally - (probably too late for me ) but it would be nice to have a way to convert old urls stored internally in the post table to the converted path.

Two issues: 1. I have a forum with 2 subforums. I am trying to edit the permissions for the whole forum and am getting an error saying that only categories can have no parent under Parent Forum. I have tried ticking and unticking the No Parent choice. It is the parent forum so I am confused as to why it's even saying No Parent is not an option. 2, In the subforums, for some reason only an Admin can post. Moderators, even one specific to this forum and subforum and members do not have a reply box to the existing thread. Thanks for any help!! I need the moderator to be able to post in an existing thread as well as members.

This has probably been mentioned before but if you load the type=core_members list on 4.0.8.1 you get a list of all member groups without respecting user permission. So even guests can view all groups. How can this be configured to respect user permission to view groups?

Hello. i hope I make myself clear on what I'm looking for. I'm wondering if there is a way to create a standard input form for clients to post to? For a select "client" group (not all our groups), I would like these clients, when they reply in their personal "journal", to have a standard input form come up automatically for them. We have communication issues with clients not providing us the details we need for our support program, so this form would provide them with the reminders for the information we require on a daily basis. If this cannot be done as is, I would like to find out if it's a feature that could be contracted for me?
