Hi guys! First of all, I am sorry to roll such a thread up again.(I know there is a huge discussion going on) In order to keep this post as short as possible i won't quote all the references i have found via search function. Avoding the whole SEO and funcionallity discussion - I just want keep the question simple: forum.site.com = Board site.com = Page In more detail: Is it possible to install IP.4 (the board and all other apps but Pages) to the "/forum" direction and make it fully accessable via a subdomain forums.site.com and have Pages working as homepage for the root site.com? How would an article in pages and a topic / post in the board look like URL-wise?

I love that content like YouTube videos and such are automatically embedded in posts. HOWEVER, they do take up a lot of screen space, so is there any way to disable embedding for quotes?

Hello, we need to implement a feature, that certain user (groups) can generate a custom voucher code at a different database at a different server. Like that: Domain1.com (ips board) user logs in, see new link in his profile admin and clicks it. Domain2.com (other system with API) gets request, look if group is right (if (group == "2") and generates code and send it to the user via e-mail or displays it at domain1.com profile admin. Is something like that possible and if yes, where I can get information about the programming?

Can someone tell me where the template is that controls the form output for the support fields in Nexus. I am trying to hack the template code so that a certain department does not show to a paid member. Just for a normal registration that did not pay for a plan. I simply want to have a "if then" statement that only allows that select box option to show for free members only. Any ideas? I have looked for hours and hours and even asked customer service, unfortunately IPS customer service does not know their own system enough to tell me. I bought Commerce/Nexus thinking it would do more than it did and until I got under the hood was I able to see it was not going to m…

Let first preface this post by saying that I'm very new to this software. I just bought 4.0 a couple weeks ago and I've been playing around with it to figure it out. One thing I really need a bit of guidance with is "how to style things". On the example link I have a basic "buy/sell" page with a few mock entries. With some basic CSS I changed the size of the labels and was able to change the width for the images but the height did not seem to respond...even with !important; added. https://www.markhamconnect.ca/buy-sell-trade/babies-kids-toys-clothing?page=1 I'm wondering if any of you could provide some guidance/tips on how to display the images properly and without …

Following a suggestion by, I think, @ForeverPontiac both here and in response to a previous request from me in the preview forum, I'm going to attempt to have a language-specific logo on my forum by creating a language string to link to different images. Practicing with an existing language string has worked, so I'm willing to give it a go. I was going to create a new language string using phpMyAdmin but now I'm no longer sure. Isn't there potentially the problem that a UID that I might give it could clash with one that comes out with a future update? I can see that word_id is of the type int(10), so it doesn't seem to me that I can cheat by using a decimal point ... or c…

When I upgraded my forum to RC5 it seemed to have doubled all members post counts. On my test board, which only has 3 members and 47 posts, one member has apparently made 66 posts. Any idea how I can fix this? I can't seem to find a way to re-check and re-count all members posts in the new ACP. Thanks!
