Do you mean print button or print styles as well? 

A print button that would print the content of the article as formatted on the page. Current print page from browser does not do this well. So, my guess that will need a style also. 

thank you,

Excitement was short lived. Reading at some S3 documentation, AWS scales the capacity as needed and the 503 errors are short lived. Does IPB retry the request if it does not succed?

I have discovered that older pages are missing thumbnails. Her is a page example

https://www.bmw2002faq.com/forums/topic/169196-1970-bmw-2002-fully-built-scca-fsp-26-kgb-racing-machine/

Both, the photo and the thumbnail exist and can be accessed

https://uploads.bmw2002faq.com/monthly_08_2015/post-32029-0-82014000-1438909310.jpg

But the code for the image source for the thumbnail looks to be incorrect

<img src="%7BfileStore.core_Attachment%7D/monthly_08_2015/post-32029-0-82014000-1438909310_thumb.jpg" data-fileid="106877" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt="post-32029-0-82014000-1438909310_thumb.j" data-ratio="74.75" data-src="%7BfileStore.core_Attachment%7D/monthly_08_2015/post-32029-0-82014000-1438909310_thumb.jpg" width="400" style="height: 299px;" data-loading="true">

How can this be corrected?

Thank you,

It looks like having logs written to the same bucket was triggering a large number of LIST and PUT requests. I have moved the S3 Bucket logs to its own bucket and here are the results. You can see the change at 17:00. I have not seen 500 error since the change. I will keep monitoring.

Thank you,

Steve K.

P.S. Should I create a different post for the Thumbnail issue?  I do not think it is related to the S3 bucket.

I think the problem with the Thumbnails is different. The file exists, but the path to it is incorrect

<img src="//content.invisioncic.com/a319035/monthly_08_2015/post-32029-0-34079200-1438909995_thumb.jpg" data-fileid="106908" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt="post-32029-0-34079200-1438909995_thumb.j" data-ratio="56.25" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/a319035/monthly_08_2015/post-32029-0-34079200-1438909995_thumb.jpg" width="400" style="height: 225px;" data-loading="true">

I changed the policy on the bucket to prevent the List for Public. I have CloudFront for the external serving. I will see if that reduces the rate. I do not have the rate monitored in CloudWatch, so i will look to see if i get any more errors.

thank you,

I ave not rebuilt cache in a while. The error in the log is often, but not consecutive and all of them i see are caused by Guest user.

i am not sure what issues these might be causing, but i just saw this in the post where the attachment is not available.

https://www.bmw2002faq.com/blogs/entry/2411-first-drive/

And i am also seeing that the thumbnails on old posts are not showing ups properly

I do not know if these are related.

thank you,

I am getting a large number of errors in the logs that look like this

thank you!

I believe at this moment, if there are two people in a conversation and one of the leaves or deletes the conversation, the other person can still reply in a conversation without the indication that the other user will not see the messages.  Is it possible to prevent those replies or bring the other user back into the conversation?

Thank you,

Steve K.

I think there have been some conversations about the community and the feature used to exist, so hopefully you might be able to do this, but is it possible to add a print button?

thank you!

This is so awesome! Starting to utilize it on my site.  Would it be possible to add a feature of listing a short bio for the author?

Thank you!

Thank you! i will investigate getting the other site moved to my server. Is there a problem with moving things to an existing site?

It would be best if both sites were on the same server inho, as it will make conversion easier/more convenient.

That is the part that is currently not possible. These are two active sites. There is a plan for one to be retired, but i do not think i can move it to the same server

thinks i see in the the instructions is all about old site migrating to a new fresh site without much data

Thanks,

Is it possible to import data from a PhpBB forum into an existing IPB site?  The sites are not on the same server. Can data be exported and them imported into an existing site?

thank you!

steve k.

Yes, updating to new version of the software fixed the problem. Thank you for the help! 

Steve K.

Thank you!

it does not seem right for this to be by design. This ignores the menu configuration and just adds items from the last listed menu item to the top of the drop down and it is only in Mobile.

steve 

It looks like in the mobile menu, if the last item in the menu is a DropDown, the items from the dropdown menu are shown first in the list.  See the imaes for better explination

In Desktop menu "site probmes" "off-topic" and "test forum" do not appear

Is this a bug with the menu system or something on my side?

Thank you,

Steve

Never mind, discovered that the Editor was not functioning on my site as it did here. that was corrected.

Is there a way to allow users to set up links on the uploaded photos in the forums? i can see how it can be done with html allowed, but was looking for something a lot simpler.

Thanks you

I am getting the following error when trying to create a Block. This is happening when all detailes are entered and i hit "Save".  I was trying to create "Main Block ( Multiple Image Backgrounds )"

Thank you!  Worked great to reduce the page size and load time

It seems that the pages default templates were left behind when other things got revamped.

It would be great to have same style template for the record, DB, and category view as already exists for the Blogs post and category views.

If that already exists and i missed, i would greatly appreciate the pointer.

steve k.

Is it possible to change the Templates to use the Thumb version of the record image in the record, blocks and other templates?

thanks,

Steve

@misfit76 In the slider settings, you can choose the pages on which to display the slider.

At the moment i can chose the application on which the Slider can appear. I am looking to be able to specify exact pages.  I woudl like for it to be on the home page, but not the rest of content in the "Pages" application.

thank you,

Steve K

@CodeBite, would you be able to ad a feature where the Slider can be added to specific pages like running on home page only?

thanks,

steve k.
