I'm about to do a fresh install and looking at ways to secure the ACP, after reading forum posts and tutorials I'm finding that in version 4.X the initdata.php has been re-imagined and I assume replaced with init.php? On line 52 of init.php, is this where I need to edit to change my ACP directory name? Thanks

Is there a way to see which posts are new in a thread, a small graphic per each new post not read or something would be really useful. It shows me which threads have new posts in them, and I can click on the circle to show me new posts in a thread, but the actual posts should be marked as well for longer threads where you are scrolling up and down. Examples attached. Tom

Hi all, I'm currently in the progress of updating from IPB 3.4 to IPS 4.0. We also attached a MediaWiki and our custom Portal Application to the Forums users table (directly). With this Major Update, I want to use the IPSConnect Interface in the future and I read the techdocs available... However, I have a problem with IPSConnect and I'm not sure if it's my fault or if something changed on IPSConnect too. According to this page there should be a cookie called ipsconnect_xxx this Cookie does not exist with IPS 4 anymore. Neighter on my upgraded test installation nor on a freshly installed IPS 4 on localhost (just to doublecheck). There is a new article in the IPS4/Devel…

Hello! I tried to put in FTP Data Storage and everything gets on another server, but the entire forum spoiled! I can not fix it constantly returns Internal Server Error, and the forum is security and it is important to be online. I do not know what happened, I got it again, but with the same SQL and works only with active Designer Mode, if you stop again returns internal error. I can not delete FTP from admin panel. Can you help me?

Hi there, In IPB3 I was able to rename an application's "Public" name so that it was called something different. I can't see how to do that in IPS4. I don't want it to say "Store", I want to call it something else. Does anyone know? Cheers

Updated from 3.4 to 4.0.8. Before the upgrade, the title of my homepage was "MySite.com", and now every time I access my site it shows "Forums - MySite.com". How can I remove the "Forums -" from the title? Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I've ran into some troubles. Anywhere that there is java-script of CSS on the webpage is failing to load properly. Upon inspecting the issue farther, I've realized that the person is because the images are being pulled like this: <link rel='stylesheet' href='https://pxg.me/https://pxg.me/uploads/css_built_1/341e4a57816af3ba440d891ca87450ff_framework.css.b7a64409a61c9f3ac310b5d9de28fcee.css?v=5a2301238b' media='all'>Rather than like this: <link rel='stylesheet' href='https://pxg.me/uploads/css_built_1/341e4a57816af3ba440d891ca87450ff_framework.css.b7a64409a61c9f3ac310b5d9de28fcee.css?v=5a2301238b' media='all'>Any help would be greatly appreciate…

There used to be a way that you could toggle to see either the text with formatting or the code with a light switch toggle on 3.x. It's not in the editor for 4.x, anyway to get that back?

Hello, I've upgraded from 3.4.8 (in my localhost first because of a huge database) and trying to set everything up. When I converted the database it went smoothly, I choose "utf8mb4". When I log in to admin panel I see that the "background processes" are not done, and when I try to enable them manually, it starts at first but after a while I get this message: "Sorry, you do not have permission for that! 1S111/1 Data too long for column 'msg_post' at row 1" What could be the issue, where should I look to first?

In this thread there are a couple of XML templates available to download to do all of this but this seems to be problematic for some including myself. I am on 4.0.8, and after importing the template and creating a page I get a blank page, adding the database showed error. Is there a step-by-step guide to creating something similar from scratch for a Pages/Database newbie?

This has probably got a very obvious answer, but I'm blowed if I can find it. How do you close a poll (prevent new votes being made), but leaving the topic open to replies?

Attempting to either hide certain groups from advanced search or if that's not possible remove the option to search by group entirely - So far everything I've tried hasn't worked unfortunately, curious if anyone might know how to go about achieving this? Hoping to keep the admin user name(s) hidden, in addition some groups may not want their names publicly displayed. Thanks!

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?
