  1. Yellow pages does say it comes with support for google maps though, so must be possible for search functionality to be added?
  2. No proximity search function with this app?
  3. by city, postcode would be even better
  4. I see theres map locations on here. Is there a facility to search links by geographical location? If not would you consider adding this function either as core or as a private job?
  5. Actually you might be able to ignore this. It doesn't appear to be linked, but I could swear when I looked 10 minutes ago one of the words was autolinked. Will screenshot if it happens to reappear
  6. Is there a way to override this on only certain pages? I have a series of pages databases that i want to hyperlink words from the forum topics to, but i dont want the same word on the database page to be hyperlinked to itself
  7. Slightly confused over this. Apparently theres no longer any need to get a site submitted for approval That being the case, what exactly am I supposed to put on this field?
  8. I have been given a quote by a developer to make an app that will get populate data from an IPS database or application. He is not an IPS dev but seems to think its not a problem. My question is, has anyone done similar, and if so are there any hurdles to overcome? I have had previous experience with apple and android apps and they would constantly break everytime iOS was updated. I am concerned a combination of that along with IPS updates might cause a lot of problems. I have in mind a couple of different apps. One of them would require a member to belong to a premium usergroup to access the data. This would obviously mean having to log into the app with their IPS username and password, and i'm hoping that it will also be doable to accomplish having this all sync up together. Look forward to your replies.
  9. I'm looking to add a new feature to my site that shows where freelancers/subcontractors are in the country. I would want it to be quite simple whereby the member can set their map and also include a couple fields showing their skillset. Would this app acheive this out of the box? If not, would you be able to do some private custom work to make it so?
  10. Thats a massive shame, you were mostly there already werent you?
  11. What method would you recommend please
  12. Thanks for this. The second part for the files, is this images etc? If so do I need to back these up beings as i'm using AWS for these anyway?
  13. Looking for a solution for automatic backups. Im moving my site across to a new VPS which only takes daily backups and only stores for one day. Would like to set something up where automatic backups can be made and preferably sent to a destination. Is this possible?
  14. Possible to remove the option for adding photos in the editor or will this affect the text editor globally? I get quite a high proportion of advertisers insert the images there instead of using the featured image button.
  15. Is there an easy way to pull this figure from the dashboard and have it automatically update the figure on the front end? Getting bored having to do it manually every few weeks.
  16. True, it would render lots of things meaningless. Still it would be funny to change the c word to babe, and seeing members calling each other a total babe This is actually a good idea, thanks
  17. Swearings getting a bit out of hand on my forum lately, probably due to everyone being bored out of their minds, frustrated, skint etc etc because of Covid. Haven't activated the swear filter up till now, but as the forum is for professionals and is widely visited by the public I think I need to do something. Rather than just replace words with ***** I thought it might be fun to replace them with alternatives, might make the posted second guess trying to beat the filter, specially if I cover all bases. Anyone care to put forward some suggestions? Needs to be subtle enough as to not make a mockery of the place Example: c word - awesome guy
  18. Thanks, that hasn't worked unfortunately
  19. Hi guys, I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to provide me with a line of css. I have an issue with my directory that im pretty sure can be fixed with css. When you do a search on mobile, the map marker pop up that displays the company details adds a scroll bar, and it is a bit fiddly to use, sometimes doesn't work at all. I would like the scroll bar removed and just the whole pop up displayed, theres plenty of room. I was hoping something as simple as the max-height property would work but its not, or i'm just not finding the right selector. You will need to perform a search to see the map marker pop up https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/nearby-tipsites/?nearby=100&lat=52.247130899999995&lon=1.0766497
  20. I am looking to improve the user experience for my members particularly on mobile view. Many of them find navigation on IPS next to impossible. This is for the most part due to the amount of different things there are on the forum, and as a result people often post in the wrong places, or worse still, simply don't find what they are looking for. I would like to pay a designer to improve this and have had the following idea which i would like feedback on. I have knocked up some crude mockups just to represent the idea. At the bottom of the page I have added a 'easy navigation' button. Looking at different ideas of how to implement it, but it needs to be obvious, always on screen and literally say something like 'easy navigation' rather than having an icon that people have to try and figure out the purpose of. Secondly clicking on the easy navigation will give a full screen of the most important sections of the site, nice and clear and without all the options that are in the current default menu. Looking for feedback, thanks!
  21. I did this ages ago, if I remmeber correct something had to be changed at server level
  22. I could have a use for this! Please let me know if you get one
