SVN for clients

February 27, 2008 by Guest Jaggi

4.4k views
Just thinking it might be a good idea to have a svn for clients so that we can update our forum via svn. Doesn't need to be a live area as i've seen topics before saying this wouldn't be very possible but i use svn with alot of my softwares and think its a nice and easy way to update them with little effort. Would enable us to download bug fixes and security updates instantly too..

Forum deletion should be recursive

As our site has recently shifted it's subjects, we have had to delete some forums. Since a few full category forums with child boards needed to be deleted, I looked for a way to kill the child forums too. But I could not. I think that it should be possible to remove the child forums along with the main forum. And in addition, to be able to delete the topics in the forum along with the forum. Sure, I support having the option to move the contents instead of deleting it, but I want the option of deleting it too! Well, I better get back to work, I got like 20-30 forums to kill manually. If only I could use the check boxes next to each forum to mark them for simulta…

Ok I have seen this has been asked about 100 times but all the links seem to end in 404 :( I have a new board and would like to just move the members over to the new board. The forums are a different layout and have a new look and different mods so I would not think that the members posts would fit well so just the members would be nice. Any advice welcome lol

Hello, first i have to excuse myself, for an eventually bad english...i hope for consideration! Now my proposion for the new software. My proposion is a kind of "Taking Over function" for the new Boardsoftware. I try to explain with an example: I draw up a new Thread. The Thread does have a statistic (ranking list) for hardware benchmarks (3D Mark) in the first post. Everyone is posting in this thread but suddenly - i am in holidays. Everyone is waitung for an update. But i'm away...i can't update the ranking list, and there's no admin or something like that, who fixes the problem - updates the list. This "away" problem, can also a rise, if the person who is com…

[suggestion] Template to Template includes

March 1, 2008 by Guest Digi

1.4k views
Not sure if this has ever been suggested before. I did a little searching and couldn't find anything similar to this. Technically you can do this, but the implementation (and presentation) is pretty ugly and it only works if the skin file has already been loaded. So here goes: I'd like to see html logic added that allows a template to call for another template to be included. This would allow for components and IPB to load logic-less templates to others without PHP manipulation. Here is an example of how this can be done currently (only if the template has been loaded in the php file):  {$this->ipsclass->compiled_templates['skin_s…

An Auto-Ticket should be created upon purchase of a plug-in

Why would you have your sales set up so that when a customer purchases a plug-in they need to go in and notify you it needs...plugged in? I mean, I can only think of one reason you'd purchase an IP plug-in and it's not to pet it and call it George. :blink: A plug-in purchase should go straight to a service rep's task folder. But I'm new and could be totally blind to a legit need to have it set up this way.

Can IPS provide any updates on the next release of IP.Board? I'm not asking for a feature list, road map or whatever. Just curious if the next release is being worked on, and if you're planning another bug fix release or a 2.4? 2.3 was released last June, 9 months ago. Thanks!

Maybe it's been suggested before, but I sure would like to see a search function in the ACP. This would help admins find certain sections of the ACP without looking everywhere and wasting time. I just tried to find the area where I set up forum pruning. I spent 10 minutes looking for it, and still haven't found it!

We've been running Invision Powerboard now for a little over a year now... We've been very happy with it and recommended it to several business associates, and many of them have implemented it into their sites. Up until this point we thought the support was very nice and documentation was complete. Well, this past weekend we had a hot thread that racked up over 50 pages of posts :thumbsup: . So this morning the forum is running very slow, and people are getting error pages. So I decide I'll come on over to the Invision SUPPORT forums and see what the community had to say about this. Well as it turns out.... I'm no longer a 'Current' customer, so I can't see or acce…

[Suggestion] Lock SQL Toolbox Option

February 11, 2008 by Guest AndyF
9 replies

3.4k views
Here`s an idea :D Add a line (probably init.php would be a good place) :unsure: , to disable access to the SQL Toolbox area completely. As if anyone gains root access, you can at least limit (a bit) what they can do. Something like... define ( 'SQL_TOOLBOX', 0 ); To turn it off (ideally by default it should be off, just imo) Just a thought anyway ;)

The profile page needs an online indicator... Sometimes I don't get to a member's profile from a post... I get to it from a PM or something... I click on their name and I have to scroll all the way down and look at their "Last Seen" thing, which may or may not mean they're online (they could have logged out). Please add an online indicator somewhere near the top.

Help File Limitations

I just discovered today that in IP.B v2.3.4 that there is a limitation on images for the creation of help files by the 'Tools & Settings | Topics, Posts & Polls" setting. This is a BUG and needs to be looked at. EXAMPLE in the 'Tools & Settings | Topics, Posts & Polls" setting, say you have the "Max. no. images per post" set to 5, NOW you want to create a HELP file that has more than 5 images, you CAN'T, you are stuck at 5 images and must increase this setting to get your HELP posted correctly. ALSO The HELP files should ACCEPT HTML and not convert it to BBC. Help files are suppose to be easy to ready and full of detailed info for your community, not…
