Does this work with IP.Pages?

I use forums for my comments on records in my IP.Pages database and am trying to set a prefix for each topic created when an article is submitted, but no prefix is saved upon submission.

However I can manually edit those topics to set a prefix and it works fine. So it seems like something isn't saving in IP.Pages when creating a new record.

Honestly, I don't know. I don't have IP.Pages, and I don't know how Forums integrates with it in the context you're talking about. It should drop in and work for any content type that supports default tags, but that sounds like a funky and probably unique case.

Hi, how to change topic position?

I think that would come down to your theme styles. A quick line of CSS would likely fix that. What section is that screenshot of? Topic list? I can't place it. Is it the same way with the default theme?

[Ryan H.]

I have some fixes underway regarding capitalization, special characters, and paging on the Manage Tags section. Not quite ready for release yet, and I've run into a couple more core bugs in the process. Regardless, I expect that'll be ready within a couple weeks.

I'll be traveling in the coming week (4/1-4/7) for business. I probably won't be available for application support during that time.

When Tags Mode is closed, as you see in attached jpg why cannot i write into the red border area for preselecting tag. Otherwise is not easy way to find the whichever i want. Why it not sorted tag list by alphabetcially?

Without this two option, Closed Tags Mode is not useful. Except Only if i have a little bid tags.

Could you add these options to application?

Your screenshot didn't come through, but I assume you're asking for autocompletion of predefined tags. That select box is core IPS functionality, but that might be something that could be improved. Something I'll explore down the line. I assume they're sorted according to the order they're entered in the predefined tags setting.

Yes that is exactly what i mean, autocompletion of predefinition. For the second you are also right. When closed mod tags we should have option to sort them .

@Ryan H. I noticed that my prefixes disappeared from the last topic title:

Before they were displayed.

What version of IPS?

[Pedro Ibáñez]

Hi,

It is related with the app?

[motomac]

Hmm... the problem apparently has been fixed by the 4.1.19.2 update.

Yes, but I don't think anything is actually wrong--you can disregard those warnings, or run the auto-fix tool to continue past it. I'll look into it for next update.

Okay. That was a known issue with 4.1.19.0; I expect that's what you saw. Thanks for the update.

I'll be addressing that for the next update, but for now, no workaround.

Export tags into a CSV please!  

I have a lot of clean-up to do on my tags 

Thanks for the continued maintenance and updates on the app.

I'm not sure what you mean. As a user, or admin? You can only add prefixes in the admin panel.

See attachments. Add your prefixes, then assign them to your forums.

I'm using this version 4.1.19.2 and the problem still the same and auto fix does not work but if there is not important i'm not worried about it.

Hi Ryan H.

thanks for the information and pictures.

I decided to download your program as i was looking for a way to utelize my own Prefixes which a good friend of mine had made for the Forum.

Unforutantly i cannot find the option to upload or utilize my own custom Prefixes which is what i was asking/wanting from the beginning.

Now granted i am not an expert nor do i claim to be knowledgable in these things BUT all i could find is a place where i could put in HTML code if i wanted to use an image. 

Am i overlooking something somewhere where i CAN utilize my own custom Prefix images ?

If not the software is of no use to us .

 

Thanks for your time.

You can use HTML for images like so:

<img src="IMAGE-URL-HERE">

I assume that's how it works here but I haven't tested it myself.

[Wicked007]

Hi Simon Woods,

after using your example i uploaded a test img to an image hoster now which link should i use as there are very many to choose from ?

I tried the direct link and this is what i put in the HTML field

 

<img src="https://postimg.org/image/z2xtxxxx/">

but it did not show as an image unfourtantly ..

Any help would be greatful.

 

Thanks

By "direct link" they mean a link to their website. For your image, you need to find the URL that ends with the image file extension, such as ".jpg", ".png", ".jpeg" -- usually you can do this by right-clicking the image and choosing "Copy image address". If that doesn't work then it depends on the site you are using to host it; you might have better luck with a site like imgur.
