In 3.x this used to be filtered based on a search setting. Not the case from what I can tell now. Where do you select what boards you would like to see new posts pulled from in the Latest Topics block?

Alright guys, heres the thing. Im trying to do some customization for my ipb forums. Thing is. I can't seem to figure this out on my own. Issue one/two how do I change the name Blog to News and the word Forums to Media Kit (A example is the tabs you see above saying blog/ forums. Id love that changed. As well as when you're in that section the first title you see is blog/forums.) So by changing it, id love it to read News/ Media Kit based on which tab you're in. Third issue is on the blog section. When I view the front section (picture below) and want to read an article, if i click the link, it goes to the article, but if i click the picture, instead of going to the ar…

I had this setup with 3.4.7 in the SQL section of AdminCP but 4.0 doesn't have an SQL section. I'm doing a weekly draw on my forum giving away $50 every week. To enter, members have to contribute 50 posts in the forum over the course of that week. I need an SQL query that will generate a list of every member who posts 50 times or more in the forums from [starting date/time] to [ending date/time]. I've tried to figure it out but I'm not an SQL pro by any stretch. If anyone could throw me in the right direction, I would be super grateful. Thanks! -Andrew

I just upgraded my forums to IPS4. The archive feature was turned on and it archived a good 75% of my community. I am unable to manually unarchive the topics or if I turn off the archive feature, It doesn't unarchive the posts when it said it would. Has anyone run into this before? Can this be fixed? Should I create a ticket?

I might be totally dense, but I can't seem to find where to change how many download items are listed per page. The default seems to be 25, but does anyone know where to change that?

I have iThemes security installed on wordpress which is located in my root folder. However some of it's .htaccess rules are leaking into the forum sub folder. I'd like to blanket exclude any rules from my root .htaccess from being applied to the forum subfolder. (The forum sub folder already has it's own rule set) Can I place the following at the beginning of the root .htaccess?: RewriteRule ^/ - [L]I'm hoping this will stop anything from be applied to the sub folder Thanks!

Hello, I have some RSS feeds into forums (all testing), and have an issue and a question: The tasks for RSS does not run consistently, not sure if there is an error on a feed (nothing in the logs) or what the problem is.When they do run, they grab just the last 10 entries, is it possible to tell them to grab all new items and not just the last 10?Thanks!

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?
