Epic, thank you @GTServices — looking forward to getting this setup on my forum.

Hey @DesertIslandFruits, how are you showing images for the secondary groups?

You can look into CKEditor 4 plugins to see if you find anything. This was the first I found but it looks like it requires 2 other plugins:

Alternatively you could get a Dev to make something for you or make your own buttons for it but I don't know how easy that would be.

Thanks Morrigan — it doesn't seem to be as simple as I'd hoped. It may be worth reaching out to a dev, as you suggested. Thank you for your input!

Hi there — I was wondering if there's a way to add accordions to post formatting options (example of an accordion)?

The good devs are busy.  The bad devs are busy too.

Here, here. Truer words were never spoken.

Thanks for the suggestions, I went ahead and reached out to a handful of devs and am currently discussing the project with one of them - I'll see how this first point of contact goes.

Cheers @Joel R

How integrated does your functionality need to be with the IPS suite?  Could you create a stand alone database driven webpage that you site's members navigate to via a menu choice? If so, then you have a larger pool of developer talent you could tap into.  If you absolutely need to integrate fully into the suite you can post your project here:

Thanks for the suggestion - I forgot to mention, I tried reaching out to a few top candidates listed on there a while ago, but my messages didn't receive a response, hence why I'm keen to explore my other options. It struck me that most people listed there are more interested in making small tweaks to IPBoard forums, as opposed to more complex projects and custom plugins etc.

Having said that, maybe it's time to try again - I'll message some folks now.

Hi there,

I recently launched a IPBoard community that is beginning to show traction. It's well placed for some explosive growth over the next few months.

With that being said, I have some industry (trading card game) related functionality I'd like to integrate into the forum.

As such, I'm hoping to find a suitable developer, but I'm a little lost as to where to look, and what kind of skills I should be looking for.

My background: I used to work at Shopify, and currently work as a Product Owner in an industry leading company. I have technical, design and product experience.

The rough functionality I'm looking to implement over time is as follows:

• Card embeds
  • Users should be able to tag cards from the card game the forum is centered around, Flesh and Blood. This would cause the image for the card to pop up, as well a hover view with the relevant cards information, such as attack power etc.,
• Deck lists
  • Later on, I'd like to start slowly working on a much more complex feature: the ability to add and share deck lists, that is, groups of cards folks play with during a game. As an example, you can see similar functionality over here on another forum for a similar game.

So, given that I am experienced in product development and have a good idea of what I am aiming to create, and have a good budget, where should I look for a talented developer to work with? Also, what language should I expect them to be proficient with? PHP? Or could the above functionality be built into IPBoard using other languages?

Thank you very much for any and all input.

Best,

Charlie

P.S. apologies if this is the wrong forum, I can post it elsewhere if more appropriate

Hey @GTServices, I'd love to use this but I'm still not sure if it'll work with 4.5. Would it just be a case of changing a config file value from 4.4 to 4.5 and giving it a go? If not, do you have any plans to update it? Cheers

Hey @GTServices, is this compatible with 4.5 at present? I'm very keen to purchase it and use it

Hi folks,

I'm hoping to exclude Administrators from the 'Popular Contributors' widget.

Is there an easy way to do this?

I tried Google'ing and couldn't find an answer, and the template looks like it would take some time to figure out given my skill level.

Thanks in advance
