Having never used IP.Content/Pages before, I hope someone can answer this question: I see that there's an option to cache blocks... but there's no information on just how long the cache lasts, or if there's any way to change that figure on a per-block basis. Does anyone know how long the cache lasts, and if the length of time can be changed?

I have my board set up to use subscriptions. For spam monitoring purposes, I want to be able to distinguish between free users and paid users. Free uses would have spam prevention, keycaptcha and question and answer challenges. Since paid members have to sign up using a credit card, I am not to worried about paid users, using spam and Do Not want them to have to go through spam prevention keycaptcha or question and answer challenges. It would be nice to be able to turn this on or off by group settings. Or I am open to other ideas? Thanks

I am currently programming an aspx website that uses custom membership and want to be able to add a member to our ipboard forums when they signup to the website automatically. Whilst I have looked at the dev area and it refers to ipsmember, I have recently put version 4 on the test server to start working with that. My .NET knowledge is quite good but my pho is very poor so if anyone knows how to do this in ipboard 4, any help is greatly appreciated.

It use to be using pages and I cannot remember how but I think is was menu, we could reorder top navigation bar or remove/hide a tab. I want to use the store for subscriptions, but I don't need the store tab. As long as it's set up right in packages, the subscriptions will appear, when clicking on sign-in. So I want to remove the store tab, since I do not have a store. I am sure removing the tab can still be done, I just haven't figured out how to do it. Thanks

I'm trying very hard to embed a youtube video into IPB 4 and resize it so it's not so big. I know that usually you can post the youtube link and it will embed the video automatically, Unfortunately this isn't working in v4. Literally the only way I can get a video on the post is by using the Insert other Media button on the bottom right and selecting "insert image from URL" But I can't adjust the size of the embedment. I wish I could just edit the post in HTML. But doesn't look like I can do that <----EDIT----> I've found the "Can post in HTML" option in the user roles settings which allowed me to edit in HTML. Now is there a way to allow users to only embed yo…

I have a question regarding the Chat. I have these usergroups in my forum: http://prntscr.com/6pkejp Lower ranks like Chatmods kick Head Admins or Seniors. Is there a way to Prevent Head Administrator, Senior Administrator, and Super Moderator from kicking members of their same rank or higher in the chat? Like, is there some kind of hook for that? As for my second question, I want users to be required to have 30 posts to Enter the chatroom. I saw this in another forum but I dunno of that is a hook or not. Thanks in Advance to anyone who answers these questions for me.

The code editor in IPB only has a drop down for HTML/PHP/CS/JS (why oh why do you never put the most useful one of plain text in there??) From reading the docs on CKEditor and it looks like I should be able to add other supported languages you just need to add something like this to ckeditor\config.js /* Copyright (c) 2003-2015, CKSource - Frederico Knabben. All rights reserved.

I am trying my best to create a plugin I need, I'm not a dev, when I am doing this coding I kinda feel like a fish out of water. That said, can any dev tell me what Class I extend to tap Topics. I am trying to hide topics per group in a single forum. So, that is my question, what Class do I extend and tap into, the rest I will try and muddle through myself.

Anyone using the Easy Mode option to create a theme might want to think twice. Have tried using this a few times now and seem to always find at some point it will not save (build) the theme and get an error message 'There was a technical problem saving this theme' No matter what I do it will not save and so all the work done changing colors (buttons, header, even own custom.css is lost as cannot save and so have to start all over again which for me is a complete waste of time) Am using RC7a and this still happens
