More of an AdSense issue as opposed to an IP.Board issue: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/161351?ctx=as2&rd=1

64 will probably work, but 128 is the recommendation of the makers of PHP. Generally speaking, if your host won't increase your memory limit to 128, it means they are overselling, and you should probably be looking for better hosting.

Friendly bump, I would really like to see this feature added at some point. On this site, I always use the Today's Active Content search to find topics to respond to. From that list, I often go into a topic, find I have to report it (wrong forum, for example), and the report form bumps me back to the topic when it is complete. But the act of pulling up the report form and submitting it are new full pages that the browser accesses, so I can't just use the Back button anymore to get back to the page I was on before coming into the topic. If clicking the Report button opened in an ajax popup like the PM button on the profile card, the report could be submitted without having to leave the page, and the Back button would still work as expected.

If it's a busy topic, with lots of posts coming quickly, and you don't quote the post you want to be replying to, it might get confusing.

The first release of our Skin Generator tool was quite successful, and the feedback we got from everyone was very valuable. We've worked on taking that feedback into consideration in our continuing refinement of this tool. While development of this is certainly not done (there's a lot more cool stuff we are working on adding!), we would like to roll out our next major update to this tool. In this update you'll find the following new features and enhancements. Page reorganization We started to realize as we were planning out some of the things we'd like to do, that the system may require many more options. With the old way of showing all of the options on the left all the time, it soon became clear that adding more future options there would stretch that area down even further, and would soon get overwhelming. What we decided to go with for cleaning this area up was to organize the various settings into categories, and place them in an 'accordion' style menu: You can click on each section of this menu to expand that section and collapse the rest, so that your overall menu area stays relatively small, and you only get presented with the options relevant to the type of settings you are changing. Another neat little feature you might note on the 'Pick Colors' menu is that each option there has a reset button to the right of the color picker. If you are fiddling with the colors and you get them just so out of whack that you can't make them look right anymore, do a quick reset to send that color back to the default. You'll also notice that the Preview button is gone. The Preview window on the right will now automatically update as you make changes. Pick a different color from one of the color choosers and the Preview updates instantly to reflect that change. The same also applies to the settings on the 'Choose Options' menu. More Views Being able to preview the skin you're making on just a few standard views is nice, but it's also helpful to be able to see how that skin looks on other pages of IP.Board and the various applications. In this new update we've added several new views to the list: Like the color pickers, changes here are automatic: pick a different view from the list and the Preview will update to show that new page. In addition, you can even choose new versions of the applications the skin will be used for on the 'Select Applications' menu and the changes will be relected there. You can see this in things like the IP.Downloads file view since it appears different in the most recent versions of this application. Support for the Community Projects We've added in support for the skin exporting the correct info for the Community Projects: IP.Tracker, IP.Shoutbox & IP.Links. Simply select which version of each of these that you need for your skin and the export that is built will contain the appropriate templates/CSS/images all recolored based on your selected options. Branding options This new version includes a couple new features dealing with branding your forum. First, in the 'Choose Options' menu, you are presented with a setting that lets you remove the default IP.Board logo. This is useful if you want to remove that logo entirely, to replace it with your own. In addition, the download will include a blank version of the logo, recolored based on your color choices. This blank logo is just like the standard logo that would be recolored and included in the images folder, but doesn't have the default IP.Board logo text on it. You can use this file to put your own text, or image, or anything else you need on it. Extensibility improvements Lastly, and least exciting from an end user perspective, we've done a lot of improvements on making various elements of this system more extensible. Previously, doing things like adding new colors or settings would require an awful lot of coding to add the item into the settings menus and to get the source code to find and deal with those inputs. Improvements have been made to move all color settings, applications, views, and other options into XML files. Those files get read to build the page, and then used again to build the preview and the download. This means that additions to the system can be made quickly, with minimal additional coding. All told, we feel these enhancements make this system a lot easier to use, and give us a lot of flexibility to further improve the system. As always, we welcome what feedback you have, so let us know what else you'd like to see this tool do in future updates. :) View full blog entry

Slight issue in Beta 2 with members that have long names:

Having a great forum skin is something every forum owner craves. A great skin is a big selling point, as it gives visitors a good first impression, and it colors (pun intended) the overall experience of using that forum. While a great many sites are perfectly happy with the stock IP.Board forum skin, getting something new is often a top priority for sites that are trying to make it big. Up until now, you've had a few options for this: Download or purchase a skin from IPS Resources, or a third party resource site Pay a skinner to make you a custom skin Teach yourself how to skin While all of these options are certainly good choices, we'd like to introduce another option for you: our Skin Generator service. This is a brand new service we have developed and made available to those with active IP.Board services licenses as a special little perk. The way the tool works is that it presents you with several options for customizing your skin, such as choosing different color choices: Clicking on one of the color text boxes there gives you a small UI (from jscolor.com) to choose different colors. You can either use that dialog, or type in a hex color there. There is also an option to apply our 'contrast limiting' function, which attempts to ensure light colors aren't too light, and dark colors aren't too dark; it can be used, or not, to try and get the skin looking the way you want. Once you have chosen colors and any other options, click the Preview button to show what that skin will look like; that shows in the main part of the page. Here's a quick one I created to demonstrate this preview: Note the tabs at the top for the different views, you can preview your choices in a couple of different forum views there. Here's a Topic View preview of this same skin: Previewing the skins is cool enough, but it wouldn't be a very good skin generator if it wouldn't let you get the skin you created for use on your own site, would it? Below the options for choosing your skin colors, there is a box for choosing some options to build your skin download: In here, you can name your skin, and choose the IPS applications you have installed, and their versions. By choosing all of these, your downloaded skin will contain all of the appropriate CSS, templates, and image files for all of these apps. No more worrying about whether the skin you got from a resource site has been coded to work with your IP.Gallery install! Once you fill out this box, click Export, and it'll prompt you to download the .zip file of that skin; the Skin Set and Skin Image Set files will be included in that zip, ready for you to import into your site. Here's one I created and installed on my test board: Please consider this a beta service at this point. As this is a brand new service plus it is doing something rather difficult (creating a skin automatically) we do expect many bugs. Right now this is designed for IP.Board 3.0.5. We will be upgrading it to IP.Board 3.1 when it is released. Please post any bugs you find or ideas you may have! That about wraps it up, please let us know what you think, or any other features you'd like to see introduced in future updates! :) View full blog entry

You probably want to find a better way to do this: <foreach loop="$markers as $marker"> <php> $friend = IPSMember::checkFriendStatus( $marker['memberId'] ); $member = IPSMember::load($marker['memberId'], 'profile_portal'); $avatar = IPSMember::buildAvatar( $member ); </php> Doing the IPSMember::load function on each iteration of a loop is adding an extra query for each member it has to load. Would probably be better to try and find all members you need to load and do that function once to load all of them. I just noticed this issue because I was getting 22 queries on this page.

The dude wearing the Archie Griffin jersey? :devil:

Updated the coreVariables.php code above, it was preventing AJAX requests.

You'll probably figure this out on your own, but to make the Online List stuff work properly, you need to also create an /extensions/coreVariables.php file, with this content: <?php /* Resets */ $_RESET = array(); /* Make sure our module and section are set */ if ( !isset( $_REQUEST['module'] ) && ( isset( $_REQUEST['app'] ) && $_REQUEST['app'] == 'membermap' ) ) { $_RESET['module'] = 'membermap'; $_RESET['section'] = 'map'; } Since your app only has one module and section, and neither is explicitly set in $this->request, they won't ever get saved to the sessions table, and thus the Online List stuff will never really load the stuff from /extensions/coreExtensions.php to parse it. Here's a quick class for that that I whipped up: class publicSessions__membermap { public function getSessionVariables() { /* Return */ return array(); } public function parseOnlineEntries( $rows ) { /* Got rows? */ if ( !is_array( $rows ) || !count( $rows ) ) { return $rows; } /* Loopy loo */ foreach ( $rows as $row ) { /* In some other app? */ if ( $row['current_appcomponent'] != 'membermap' ) { $final[ $row['id'] ] = $row; continue; } /* Guess not... */ $row['where_line'] = "Viewing the Member Map"; $row['where_link'] = 'app=membermap'; /* Add to our array */ $final[ $row['id'] ] = $row; } /* Return */ return $final; } }

You'll need to add a class publicSessions__membermap to the /extensions/coreExtensions.php file. It's been reported to me that when people go to the Online list and someone is in the Member Map, they're getting this error: Fatal error: Class 'publicSessions__membermap' not found in /home/mccune/public_html/forums/***/applications/members/modules_public/online/online.php on line 250

Yeah, I don't want to open up that whole avatar vs. photo can of worms, it's just something that seems to me would be more of a place where photos would be displayed. But if that's not the consensus, that's OK. :) EDIT: On the popup, it'd be nice if you could also pop up the user's popup card from there too, just include the little icon beside their name like it has it in posts. That way, we can find people on the map and quickly do things like add them as friends, search for posts, see their rep, etc.
