Hi We plan to convert to IPB 4 several forums under punbb 1.3.4 We also know some large communities running punbb 1.3.4 planning to convert to IPB 4 So i have two questions : 1) the IPS4 converter will include punbb 1.3.4 ? (as IPS 3.4.7 did) 2) for a punbb community that we already converted to IPB 3.4.7 and then to IPB 4, will it be possible to add redirections from old topics to new ones ? or too late ? Tx !

What do I put it under, do I mess with the "parent" settings, Also how do I enable the status thing o the right side where you can post your status? These are some of the many features I'd like to know how to do. here's some more pictures of what I'm trying to achiev…

I have to say I have no idea how the templates are created or edited but I am willing to learn. I was told that no documentation is ready yet and to ask you is the only option I am left. May be it will be a difficult start but I want to add record image to the defauld record feed. Any suggestion where to start ( a document or an example ) is highly appreciated

In IPB 3.4.* I've coded a simple file that would get a user id from $_GET, and if a transaction did occur successfully, it would change the member to another group. However, I was not able to find documentation yet about how to use the IPS library externally here: http://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/ Has anyone already done anything like this with v4? The script is very simple and should be very easy to translate I guess.

If you upgraded your server in a VM envoiroment and then move the Database to the actual server , how do you update the absolute path of the forum install to set it up correctly? IPS4 seems to be asking for the VM path and not automatically updating to the new path

I added a digital ocean FTP as storage method, then i selected them all as main storage. Then in the process, it got stuck moving the files and still is stuck. Lots of stuff is broken and half of the process isnt done, the background process is stuck.. Anyone know what I can do? I submitted a critical ticket, but critical doesn't seem to make much difference. Luckily i can access the admin panel, barely.. when i click run manually, its kinda stuck looping @ "Processing MoveFiles - filestorage__core_Theme - 4 / 4"
