I seem to be having a sitemap issue with google. Apparently this part of my sitemap: sitemap.php?file=sitemap_content_downloads_Category What is stated by google its an Error and warning "This required tag is missing. Please add it and resubmit." & "When we tested a sample of the URLs from your Sitemap, we found that some URLs were not accessible to Googlebot due to an HTTP status error. All accessible URLs will still be submitted." Also apparently I have 109 URLs submitted... but only 1 is indexed... not sure why. Anyone know?

Hello, In the "Commerce" module, I would like the invoice is not printed to PDF, but in html. Currently the code is: <a href='{$invoice->url()->setQueryString( 'do', 'printout' )}' target="_blank" class='ipsButton ipsButton_verySmall ipsButton_light'>{lang="order_invoice_print"}</a>I wonder what was the "$action" to be in the code instead of "printout" Thank's in advance,

Is it just me or is there no longer an option to an expiration time for packages? For example, Premium Memberships. In 3.4.x we could do the following: Premium Member 30 day, non-recurring. After 30 days, the member is placed back in original member group.Premium Member 30 day, recurring. Member stays in Premium Member group until they cancel membership.The only options I am seeing in IP4 (4.0.5.1) are these: Premium Member - Permanent. You can tell it "to place back in original group upon expiration", but there is no place to set expiration.Premium Member Recurring (based off time frame) - Member stays in Premium Member group until they cancel membership and time pa…

Hi I have had complaints from a number of members of duplicate topics being created (My guess is they are hitting submit a second time as posts take a while) and an eternal progress bar on topic replies. I have noticed this myself twice when using the quick reply box. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas? After reports of this I re-uploaded all 3.4.8 files, rebuilt text and templates, and rebuilt cache. The problem did not disappear. Cheers John

I've upgraded my test site to 4.0.0 RC4 and having issues with SSL breaking pages. I have https set for logins and nexus checkouts but when urls switch to https I only get text no css or images or anything. Also, if I access the site as https://site I get the same behaviour - unformatted text. Help!

In 3.4, while creating a post you could select a portion of text, click and drag it to a new location. Kind of a nice feature. Can the 4.0 editor be configured to do the same with both text as well as pictures? This is especially good with pictures, because with 4.0, the only way to move a picture in your post is to delete and re-insert it (as far as I know).

I have noticed a couple of times that when I create a post with an attachment, *sometimes* my next post begins with my previous post, as though it was a saved draft. I can't find a reproducible sequence, and didn't see anyone having the same problem. Anyone else experience something like that? Also, when I attempt to install an application add-on I get a white screen. I am not sure where to look to see the error. The response from support was to upgrade, but 4.0.5 didn't fare well in my testing. (I am leaving this text in here because oddly I am beginning a new topic and this was ALREADY in my editor). I had even just replied to another post just a minute ago.

Hello, I use Innodb for my Database cause i get a lot more performance with it. But with the new table core_search_index that IPS4 uses for the Search Engine, im in doubt whether i choose MyISAM or Innodb. A search only requires read statments, and i think MyISAM is stronger than Innodb in that department... But what happens if many people makes posts at the same time? Will the board writes all of them immediately to the index table and it could cause Table Locks? Or it will only write to the posts tables, and later will write to the index table using the background process's?

Hi all! I have just upgraded my ipb from 3.4 to 4.0.5 and... is all messed up. The skin not showing and it's almost impossible to navigate. Analyzing with firefox i found out that all the css and js files have wrong src, doubling the part of the index of the forum. for example http://myforum/http://myforum/eejujiu.css Sadly i'm totally lost where to go to edit and solve this problem, from the admincp it doesnt show correctly all the general configurations and from the db can't find any field related. All the other links seems to work correctly.. if someone can help me, thank you very much in advance ^^

Hi, I am using IPB 4, and I am making a request to the steam API to retrieve stats for a game. $playerData = \IPS\Http\Url::external("http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUserStats/GetUserStatsForGame/v0002/?appid=221380&key=".$loginHandler->settings['st_api_key']."&steamid=".$this->member->st_id."&format=json")->request()->get()->decodeJson(); The only problem is that depending on the User it won't retrieve a valid Json file if there isn't any game data. How can I have this code catch an exception or check if it's a valid json file before decoding?

Hi- My current navigation bar structure uses URL links on some tabs that go directly to specific forums. However when I click on the tab to go to the specific forum, the tab doesn't highlight - however the tab to the main forums application does highlight (or stay highlighted after clicked). Is there any way to have the specified URL in the navigation bar become the highlighted tab and not the main forums index page navigation tab? I don't think that this was an issue with 3.4.7 Many thanks!

Hi, If I wanted a "go to" paid person to help me make changes and help with the design that knows the ips 4.5 software inside and out, where would I find him/her? What is the rate per session/job/hour? How are they paid? Is there a list of designers that has ratings for each since this is shopping for a service? Thanks

I haven't been able to get this to run at all. I never had any previous issues with any of the software installs. After making a backup of my forum and copying the database, I tried copying the files to the respective directory. After it was finished I went to the admin/upgrade I got an error when doing the upgrade routine. Thinking it was something to do with the existing database and files I then created a new database with a new directory and uploaded the files. So when going to admin/install I get the following: Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in /forums/admin/install/index.php on line 13Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\'…

In the notification area, there is a settings button. I have Admins and Mods selected to receive an email when new content is created. No one is getting any email notification (basically it says to follow automatically). In 3.4 we all received and email when a topic was created. Does this work for anyone else in 4.0? Any advice or setting recommendations?
