What I'm trying to do is to hide a post bit element from certain forums (let's say with id's 1,2,3,4 and 5). I understand that this element should be wrapped in "if" tags that would check what forum this topic is, but I've no idea what this tag should look like. Any help?

Hello I was wondering what the relevant steps are in upgrading from my current install up to 4.0.0. Is it a case of pasting the files over the current ones and letting the software do its magic like with updates etc, or do I do something different? Thanks!

Hey everyone, I am new to ip.board loving it so far! I recently hired someone to create some content for me... I don't quite know how to add all the .css .js .html they created so I just wanted to add them as an admin with limited permissions as a content creator. They are currently signed up and I have them as a admin (I haven't told them yet) and I was adding some permissions to their account, but I dont know exactly what to give them in order to do the job but not have too much access. Does anyone have a template for this? Also, do they just log in same way I do, site.com/admin with their creds? Thank you, Micah

I sell some electronics that if bought in large quantities get a discount on the whole total. Here is an example: 1-4 $279 a piece 5-9 $219 a piece 10-35 $199 a piece So 4 would cost a total of (4*$219) $876 and not (4*$279) $1,116 Right now I don't see a way to accomplish this with Commerce but if there is a way let me know.

By default, the submit new article button appears within each category, and the article is then automatically placed in that category. However, is it possible to have a "universal" submit article button on the main page that allows the user to select (with a drop down menu) which category the article will be submitted to?

Just wondering what the best way to create a "skin replacement" is? Eg, this code is used in 3.4.x to output a topic icon, but custom ones can be created using the "Manage Replacements" feature, which I've used quite a lot for my current themes. {parse replacement="t_unread"}What's the best way to replicate this feature in 4.x? Would a theme setting be the best, or is there a way to create a variable which can be used in all template files? Thanks!

No luck in the other section, unfortunately. I am using the IPS connect plug in on wordpress, and am pasting the master url and master key into the wordpress plug in. All I'm missing is the API key from the forums. Does anyone know where to find this? It was easy to find in 3.4.x, but trying to find the API key in 4.0 is complicated. Thanks. What I need, what I can't find in 4.0RC4
