OptiForum Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 I would love to be able to read and learn about all the functions of the invision power board. Is it possible to compile a manual for dummies and make it available for download to licensed users? There is so much i need to learn. :huh:

OptiForum Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Try the FAQ and Docs:http://docs.invisionpower.com/kb/ That really does not cover much, especially for a novice user. What I need is a BOOK. I need a start to finish manualwritten for a novice with definitions. It could be called IPB for Dummies!!! There really should be something like this available :thumbsup:
cowudders Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 My partuicular gripe is the new IPB variables for better customisation. A superb feature, but with very poor documentation. I've been trying to get a list of the available variables and their function. Back in November of last year I got this reply from them when talking about this exact issue:Hello, Unfortunately, we do not currently have any documentation relating to the variables used within IPB. However, this is planned for the near future. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. For modification assistance, you may wish to visit one of our third party resource sites as found at:http://invisionboard.com/?resources There is really no documentation at all about the specifics... It's very poor.

Check out David Mytton's new book, Invision Power Board 2 : A User Guide. :)

OptiForum Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 (I made this like 3 years ago) Is this for real??? where can i get it, and is it written for owners?
OptiForum Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 no, its not real xD LOL...I was shocked too see that. Great work. If it was only for real i bet it would be a big hit here.

Wolfie Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 (I made this like 3 years ago) I like that part of:Gain Support Quickly When You See How To Ask Nicely :lol: It's amazing how many people DEMAND support. Gosh, ask nicely and if an staff member doesn't get to it immediately, a forum member probably will. :thumbsup:
