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!

Announcement Block How can I edit the announcement block - add text? How can I choose what group sees it? Empty Block How can I create an empty block though the forum itself (without having pages) to add Media.net or Adsense code or plain HTML? Block Permissions How can we assign which groups can view blocks?

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

Hi all, I have been browsing and posting on various message boards since 2003. I even made one using Invisionfree back in the day! Haha. Regardless, it's been twelve years and my dream of owning a community with its own domain have been met (IPB is FANTASTIC software btw). I have been following and very eager towards IPB4.0 I have already made a backup of my databases for the forums in SQL format and saved as a zipped file just in case. I have ran into a problem though. How do I exactly run the UTF8 installer? I installed the UTF8 folder into my forum's root, and nothing seems to change.

As the title says: If I am in a forum and want to go to the very last post of a topic right away, how can I do that? Where do I have to click? The topic title brings me to the first page/post of the topic. The username brings me to the user's profile. The date/time isn't clickable. The dot in front of the title brings me to the first new post. I can't see an icon that I can click. Is it even possible?

How do I modify what happens on the submit button being clicked? It will probably need to work alongside the new commerce but at the moment it would be good to be able to play around a bit with it.
