Browse Guidelines, Staff and Online Users It does not make sense to me for having them in the same place in the menu as Forums, Gallery, Blogs, Calendar. Somehow they do not fit together. Maybe move them next to Activity Stream and Mark site read as before? Or somewhere else? Or add separator in the menu, even something simple like | ? In this way the 2 groups can be separated.

It loads pretty quickly for me. I do not see any significant speed issue at the moment.

4.0 Contact Us form. Where to setup the email address?
estan replied to estan 's topic in Help & Support
Well, since this is not so important for our community, I stopped following this is fixed or not. I have no interest in sending emails to myself via the contact form As far as I know that the form is working for others. Feel free to open support request though in case this is important for your community. -

Few answers by Charles that helps clarify further -
Bug Tracker with 20 pages and growing. What is the plan IPS guys?
estan replied to estan 's topic in Feature Suggestions
Thanks for clarifying @Lindy! This helps me understand much better! I will open support requests then for few different important items that are impacting my community, rather then waiting fixing in the Bug Tracker. -
Hello IPS, In the last weeks, there seems to be not so much attention paid to the Bug Tracker as before. Bug Tracker has now 20 pages of bugs and they seem to keep growing. I have not seen so many pages with bugs untouched/unresolved in the recent past, or at least I do not remember. And I start to be a bit worried. It looks to me that you guys suddenly decided to focus all/most of your efforts on something else (support tickets, main site upgrade, next version with new features like 4.1 or something else maybe?). I guess it is a strategic decision, but some more clarity would be much appreciated. Can you please update us what is your plan with the Bug Tracker? Do you plan to start putting more focus on it as before soon or do you have some other plans? Should we continue to report bugs in Bug Tracker at all? Or should we create support tickets instead? And what is the plan? This is very important to know, especially for customers like me that recently upgraded to 4.0 and there are different issues in Bugs Tracker that are important for my community and that wait for a fix.

Changing Block Titles - Why can't we do it?
estan replied to phatmass 's topic in Feature Suggestions
Exactly. This is a solution if you have one block only. But I have multiple ones. -
Changing Block Titles - Why can't we do it?
estan replied to phatmass 's topic in Feature Suggestions
I very very very much need this too. -
I really need this option back again. It was present in 3.4.7 - where I can hide some forums from search results, make them non searchable and not appearing in the New Content section. The use case is that my community is focused in one direction and then we have few forums that are not so important for most of the members of the community but very active for different reasons. Most people of the community do not care and do not want to see many posts/topics daily in these non important forums. I use widgets to hide such posts/topics, but still they appear in the New Content section and flood the community. And I do not want to fully close/delete these forums, I just want them to be not so visible / prominent. Could you guys add per forum options for excluding a forum from A/ New Content B/ Search Results? @Charles

@bfarber or @Mark - can you help here? We are missing this random option in Pages and we need some help how to replace it with custom PHP block. Can you give us such an example PHP block code?
-
Well, yeah, plenty of stuff to improve, but I'm so so happy with IPB 4 that it is ok. I understand that these little goodies will take some time. I just hope that midtime I can find an acceptable solution. So, anyone who already did this, can you post the code and help us? Or anyone who have a bit of time to create the PHP custom block code, at least the most basic stuff - DB connection, fetching random record etc? Please, your help is much needed and obviously not only from me
-
Thank you! This really helps! I was wondering the same and did not know that these are by category settings now. It makes more sense though.

Hey guys, Before upgrading to 3.4.7 I had different functionalities that depend on the random feature - random article for the day, random quote of the day and few others. Since, we do not have such random option in Pages now, 4.0.3 version (I hope they will add it in the future versions), I need to do it manually. As I understand it, now I need to create a custom PHP block with code that connects to the Pages database and then shows the random article. I have no idea how to do that after the migration to 4.0. I even do not know how to do the simple thing of connecting to the Pages database. And I really need this because multiple functionalities after I upgraded to 4.0.3 does not work because of not knowing how to do this random thing, and google does not play nice with long time broken pages. I would very very much appreciate some support here. Can you please help? If anyone has same block code or similar one, can you post here?

4.0 Contact Us form. Where to setup the email address?
estan replied to estan 's topic in Help & Support
So, with help of support and some extra testing I did, it turned out that for some reason email sending does not work when logged in with my admin account only. Was not able to reproduce with other accounts. Very weird issue. The guys will investigate further. Thanks everyone for contributing in this topic! -
This might not the appropriate topic for 4.0.3 issues. Upgrade for me 3.4.7-4.0.3 went fully fine for me though. You might want to either open a support request or use one of the other forums. Or maybe fill bug in the tracker...
