I have a Pages database which contains a date field. This isn't a mandatory field, since I'd like to leave it blank most of the time. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware of the following effect: Is there some clever trick I can apply so that if the field is left blank, nothing appears?

In the bottom side of your community there appears the language option, and when you click on it, with the language name there appears a flag with it...

I used several different custom fields in IP.Content for my article system, such as a teaser paragraph, image caption, author description, and so on. But for some reason only the teaser paragraph field is visible in IPB 4 when I try to add a new article or edit an old one. How do I make the other fields work as well? Thanks for any help! Edit: Wow. I've been trying to find a solution to this problem this whole morning. And 10 minutes after I post this topic I find the solution! For others that are having the same problem, this is how you fix it: In your ACP, go to the page Categories and select your category. Choose "Form Fields", and under "Use Fields" select all. …

I'm familiar with adding new buttons to the editor (and am slowly converting old bbcode to the new system) but when I try to add a new separator it appears all the way to the left on the editor, and is unmovable. What's a good workaround for this?

My community requires that we are able to set users as banned, but still be able to access the public content. Now, I am well aware that it we could create a group to move people to, however the current functionality of the banned option is perfect, apart from the fact we want to allow banned members to signout. I tried adding a logout button to the template, however this just results in the constant error of not allowing a banned member to do anything. Is there a way of doing this?

Hi All, In version 3.x of IP.Board, I could grab a copy of our forum from our website (sql dump and file copy) and create a local instance on my computer for the purposes of development. I just tried this in version 4.03 and it does not like it, icons and styling are out of whack and things are missing as you can see from the attached image. Probing further, on our public web server copy there are 7 JS files stored in uploads/javascript_global, on my local copy there are now 746 JS files and the names are different and there seems to be many duplicates. Since the names are different, it's causing referencing issues that are likely causing the the issues outlined above…
