Im guessing this is one for the staff. Or anyone who can figure it out for me. So if you have only 1 forum and set default app to forums the homepage of your homepage will become the thread list of that single forum. But if you have more than 1 forum then it shows a category list instead. What i need is to have it still show the 1st forum as homepage....while still being able to access the 2nd forum from a menu link. Can someone help me please.

Maybe I am blind, but I can seem to find the options to allow myself or moderators to move a post? Can anyone enlighten me to where that is or how to activate it?

I have set up PP, Live. I can't see how I might have done anything wrong in there, seems pretty simple. But when it comes to buying something I get this error code Error code: 4X196/3 Not sure if that is PP being grumpy or something on my end. Any ideas?

I am using version 4 and just looking for one adjustment, I'm sure it's something simple to adjust. I am looking to make the dropdown menus appear on hover instead of click. Any help would be greatly appreciated on where to go and what to change. Thanks!

On our board, certain threads never show under New Content even when there are new posts. They all seem to be threads with a lot of (>500) pages. Anyone else experiencing this?

After upgrading from IPS 4rc7 to IPS 4.0.2, I found some problems: When I attempt to access the site, I always get something like the below code on the first load. Refreshing again reloads the site correctly. How can I go about debugging this?

As it states, what is the best way to pin a POST to the top of a TOPIC? In 3.4 I used Best Answer. Now that is gone in 4.0. Question and answer forums act differently now. I don't want them to be sorted differently. I just want to highlight a post. See we have things like contests and things on my site and I always highlight the new contest in a long-running topic. That is just one example. Best Answer always worked for me in 3.4 except for the fact that I could not mark post #1, which was needed sometimes for the following pages (so post #1 was highlighted at the top of page #2, etc.). I see Post Highlights is an upcoming feature but it looks like it works like tagging,…

Creating a Forum topic for an article. Just curious how this should behave. Should comments stay only on the front page and the forum on the forum? They should stay separate or mirror one another?

Hey guys, I have a few questions: 1. How can I rename the menu items - pages, calendar.. I cannot find a way to do it from applications, I can open the details but cannot chage it.. 2. How can I rename the blocks that I use to create a page - like topics, popular now, recent entries... 3. Also when I create a page it seems that the new entries from the forum lag a few minures before showing up on the page...? 4. How can I add a Pool on a Page? That's for now, thanks in advance

In 3.x IP.Content, this would work: <if test="!$record['custom_field_id']"> In 4.x I see some stuff like "{{if $record->customFieldsForDisplay" or "$record->customFieldDisplayByKey", but I can't figure out how to test if there's anything in the field. Any ideas?

When we quote a post that has a spoiler in it, the hidden content is no longer viewable in the quoted post. Is it supposed to work that way?

The easy block manager allows the creation of customized topics blocks where I can set only one forum to feed the block. But if I set this block on a specific forum topics list, the block will be added to all forums topics list. How to set a customized block to be added only in a specific forum topics list?

I want to make it easier to see between posts while reading the topic, it's too white and washed out for me at the moment so I just want to darken it down a touch. It's the part that is almost a container for the entire topic and flows inbetween each post. It looks bright white. I've changed every single colour in the editor for buttons, front end and text and none of them affect it.

I just upgraded my live site to 4.0.2 and the editor is not showing. At all. I've cleared the cache of the browser as well, restarted the browser and tried other browsers. Problem persists even on other computers. See screenshot below. Also, on the index, the sidebar does not expand. Same attempts as above. Edit: I've fixed it by going through the ACP > System > Support and selecting "Something isn't working" which still let me type in my problem, "cache". It cleared the cache and fixed the above display error and the sidebar issue.
