How to enable "Developer's Mode"

Featured Replies

what do you mean about by IPS told me?

that is the way you set to developers mode

i use

define('IN_DEV', ( IN_ACP ) ? 1 : 0 );

on my config file

They said this "IN_DEV is a developer tool that is not supported by the ticket system"

Use at your own risk, they don't support editing the coding as a dev.

Any dev tools / mods / coding is at your own risk.

Thanks for the heads up MathewC

define('IN_DEV', ( IN_ACP ) ? 1 : 0 );


-RAW- the link said they had settings, Where can I find these settings in my ACP ?

Additional settings appear in the normal settings pages.

Such as when in the 'System Settings' page you can then see a button to export xml files.

normal settings pages


And where is that ?

board > conf_global.php > define in dev.

Open up the board zip, tools, upload buildInDev.php to your root and run it from the command line.

Edit: Mistake corrected

  • Author

board/admin > Index.php, define in dev.

I don't get this part, Explain more

Open the file (conf_global.php), add

define( 'IN_DEV', 1 );

If this is just for skins I don't see the point personally, hooks/apps yes.

Okay I did that but now Its saying

"Fatal error: Class 'skin_global_20' not found in /home/public_html/admin/sources/classes/output/publicOutput.php(3837) : eval()'d code on line 2"

Open up the board zip, tools, upload buildInDev.php to your root and run it from the command line.

^

What are you trying to do?

Oops (been a hard day). don't know where my head is at the moment. Put that line in conf_global.php found in your root dir, and run buildInDev.php from your command line. Undo what you did with index.php in admin.

Yes like MathewC said, what are you trying to do exactly?

"Open up the board zip, tools"

Where ?

Where you downloaded IPB from, board.zip, inside there is a folder named tools. buildInDev.php is one of them

"Open up the board zip, tools"

Where ?

The compressed file you download from IPS. which is called "board" upon uncompressing, you have three folders, one called tools.

Easy as that.

You're a Hosted customer, so you won't have access to the board ZIP files. As well, the files on our hosting are encoded and cannot be edited.

I was wondering how can you get Settings for the Theme Skin Set, like Socials, and the color picker and more.
Idk if this does that but it said something like "Settings"

Does this do that or know ?

You make them.

Oh I thought they had settings built in IPB

One more question about it:

I see "IP.Board External Edit (WebDav)"

I enabled it but how do you edit themes outside of ACP ?

I don't see anything on my forum that had to do with IP.Board External Edit (WebDav)

I also don't think thats worth doing, AFAIK most skinners just copy templates/css from IPB look & feel into an editor like Sublime text 2, generally the best way to go.

Oh so your saying it's worthless

Just gonna do that then

Coda and Transmit are what I use, very resourceful.
