ACP>System>support>get support>follow through to the third process. Where will this post, in the IPS Technical Support forum? Anyhow it's kind of cool. I like it. I thought about just testing it, but I am sure that is not what it is for.

I just moved my forum installation from /forums/ to /sanctuary/ and I changed the board URL in the config file, however, now some of the images are not showing and the ACP has no CSS styling anymore whatsoever and is a complete mess. Am I missing something?

Is anyone using the Icalendar Feed Imports, yet? If so, would you mind sharing a little information about it? I have a couple of forums that this may really work nice on, might even be able to use it as a selling pitch. I saw icalendars listed under Community>Calendars>iCalendar Feeds, so I googled and read a little about it, other then that I don't know much about it. Wikipedia says " iCalendar is used and supported by a large number of products, including Google Calendar, Apple Calendar (formerly iCal),[2]IBM Lotus Notes,[3]Yahoo! Calendar, Evolution (software), eM Client, Lightning extension for Mozilla Thunderbird and SeaMonkey, and partially by Microsoft Ou…

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.
