I don't want to edit something that should not be edited, but so far no fixes in the custom files are working. The Location line on all members info display area on a post is missing the space between the "Location:" and the filled in place. Photo attached shows the issue. Is there a way to fix this, please? Thanks.

We have our email notifications in IC 4.5.4.2 set to be truncated, but the digests are coming down the pike with full text. How can I truncate the email digests? We would like no more than 2 sentences and then a link to the content. Thank you.

Hi, I've seen sites that have a landing page on their domain.com and forums on domain.com/forums. How do you achieve that with IPB? Do you just change the directory where files are installed? That would mess up everything and cause errors.

The default criteria when using the search bar in the nav is "Everywhere" - of which I would expect "Members" to be a subset. However I can only find members when I explicitly toggle the member search filter. Is there a way to make this work more intuitively by default? The settings for search & discovery in the Admin CP are extremely limited. Example screencap attached. member search.mov

I've noticed that the same password you use on your account is used on adminCP which means someone can get full admin access to the site just by finding out your user password. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for some extra good security measures when it comes to that (extra auth or something). thanks

I've been trying to read through previous posts and the Help Guides, but so far have not found an answer to this. Our forum has had signatures enabled for a long time, but we're considering removing them. When the whole Signature option is toggled to off/disabled, they are hidden -- but the information (text and/or images) in the signatures is not deleted. If the Signatures are again enabled, there is all the same text and image that was there before. Is there a way to delete all content in signatures when disabling them? Thanks!

I would like transactions for buyers and sellers to be safe. It's about ESCROW routing. After purchasing the item, the seller receives a payment but cannot withdraw it from the forum until the buyer approves the receipt of the product. Is there such an option? How to do it?

Hi everyone, I'm making an IPS Application to support my game and I found myself stuck for past few hours. I've been trying to add another tab to leaderboard, just like this: Now, I've managed to achieve above by creating a theme hook and adding another <li> element at the start of tabs. Element code looks like this: <li role="presentation"> <a href="index.php?app=core&module=discover&controller=popular&tab=gamescore" role="tab" id="elTabgamescore" class="ipsType_center ipsTabs_item"> <i class="fa fa-gamepad"></i> Gamescore </a> </li> Next thing I've been trying to do, was to ma…

Strange one and possibly an OCD thing... But, I hate seeing that members ID jump up quite a lot throughout registrations with accounts being banned/deleted, etc. Is there a 'safe' way or is it even possible to recount all the accounts and put them back in descending order? I get this may not work for larger communities or ones that use the member ID as their membership ID, etc. But, I thought I may just ask as it's probably just me that would want to achieve this.

Is there an app option for our personal website communities? I'm looking into apppresser / https://apppresser.com/ still working on it, but right now accessing the community area using the app isn't working. I have a few things I can check on, but wondering if there is another way of doing this? I am using learndash, memberpress and invision community for the forum area. I would like to have an app but of course all the areas need to be accessed when using it.

I did a search and didn't find anything that remotely related to what my question is but if it exists and I simply missed it, I do apologize for asking again. There may be a a reason why I didn't find it though, as my question might seem odd. I have a need to not only receive payments but to also send payments. I have looked through the functions and do not see a way for me to send payments. I thought that maybe on the off chance I may have missed it or not looked at it properly, to ask. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. TYIA

Hi all, I'm trying to create events that repeat every specific day of each month. For instance.. I want to repeat an event every 1st Sunday of each month. Is this possible? Or is there a plugin that adds this? If not, is there a way to integrate the TeamUp calendar somehow? Either by importing events or getting a feed of 'Upcoming Events' from it? We've recently switch to IPB and the Upcoming Events and RSVP features are the biggest reason why I want them to use the IPB calendar.
