    Black Tiger got a reaction from Eric BXL in Preview button   
    Exactly the same reasone that my users (and I) did not find it at first either. Had to ask here for it. A very small magnifying glass with the editor buttons for several users points to what a magnifying glass would do, zoom in to see better, some would not expect a preview option on it either.
    So even when left at it's current position, maybe another icon then a magnifying glass (like maybe an eye).
    Anyway, it's probably something internal from the editor, but it would be nice to have a choice for a preview button on/off which then can appear next to the reply button where it's expected.

    This is not currently a feature, however I agree that it is sorely needed.

    Black Tiger got a reaction from CoffeeCake in Move several threads from search results   
    I've searched, also with Google, but can not find it.
    I want to doe a search for certain topics, select most of them and then move them to another category or forum part.
    For example, I want to search all topics with Foobar in the title, and I want to move most of them to a seperate forum called "foobar stuff".
    The search works, results are oke, but there is no option to select and move them???
    I hope I'm looking at the wrong place to do it. How can this be done?

    Then it will need updating. I was talking about the latest 4.4.10, sorry.
    Since there is no seperate release thread on top of the forums I didn't even know 4.5.x was out yet.

    Black Tiger reacted to CoffeeCake in Giving free year subscribtion to everybody, how?   
    Oh, no you can totally do it! I just don't believe there's a way to apply it to all members at the same time via the web interface (ACP).
    You can go in and add the free subscription for a year to each member, one at a time.

    Black Tiger reacted to CoffeeCake in Giving free year subscribtion to everybody, how?   
    Sorry, I was not as clear as I could have been. IPS doesn't have an automated way to give members subscriptions in bulk. To do so, you'll need to add them one by one, clicking through the ACP, or need to do something like build something that uses the API, or directly add the necessary data in the SQL database. 
    Not impossible, but you're going to have to do a lot of manual work or build something that does it for you.

    You could edit the templates or hide it with custom css.

    No, but you could add a custom profile field to allow members to add their email address to it if you wanted.

    Black Tiger reacted to Jim M in Can I just store files in 1 single directory?   
    Ideas don't make it into our software because of the size of the community who requested but the merit of the idea and the usefulness of the idea to other clients 😉 . 
    Screenshots are indeed not required. This a is a per category setting.

    Black Tiger reacted to Jim M in Can I just store files in 1 single directory?   
    Think this would be a case to allow screenshots in the Downloads application to be re-used across downloads like we do for many other attachments, rather than storing some images in 1 directory. I'm not sure how popular this would be though as I don't imagine many people re-using screenshots in Downloads. However, you may wish to make this suggestion in the Feedback forum if this is something you desire.

    Black Tiger reacted to bfarber in Can I just store files in 1 single directory?   
    No, and I don't understand why you'd want to. We've seen in the past when our software worked this way busy sites would get hundreds of files stored in the directory and you wouldn't even be able to open the folder via FTP because there were too many files to list. It's far better to break the files up into subfolders as we do now, and I am not aware of any reason it would be "better for website loading" not to do so.

    Black Tiger got a reaction from Trahis in Default language   
    And another case of a forum I'm admin of.
    I know about the docs. It's the same I stated in my last line, that IPS would detect automatically. We're lucky on both forums mostly Dutch languaged persons use the forums.
    According to the IPS Docs the suite should have choosen Dutch because for me and almost all my  users the language, including OS and browser is Dutch. But still it gave English. So it's not 100% working like the docs say it should work. However, that was may last year. We're a couple of versions further now so maybe that part is better, I won't test again. 🙂
     
    We can agree on that. But it might be that mod will disable the automatic detection. I don't know. I never used the mod/plugin.

    Black Tiger reacted to Excalibur in Show Member and Forum Statistics blocks to certain groups   
    I think for one thing, starting out you might not want to show guests how few members and such you have, it's tough enough trying to get a forum to take off, and seeing that information as a guest or perhaps as a new member, might be enough to turn people off from your forums, but at the same time, as you you grow and to established members and staff, that information is helpful to see, it really shouldn't be all or nothing. There are probably other reasons too, but that is what comes to mind.

    Black Tiger got a reaction from bfarber in Adsense issue with incorrect redriect?   
    I found a way. You can't use url redirects because it needs a query redirect. So that search did not fit.
    So I started to search for query redirects. Had to search for that too because I'm not native English.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  ^/index\.php$ RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^action=login$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.satellitefun.org/404.shtml? [R=301,L] At first the ?action=login stayed behind it, but after I put the ? at the url, it's fixed.

    Black Tiger got a reaction from zyx in (Idea) Contact Us Form Spam Reduction   
    Agreed, but there are already suggestions about improving the contact form, including one (from me) to add the ip of the user of the contact form.
    Also to make the amount of quetions to ask in the question and answer challenge customizable.
    They all can have some improvement because when not payed for the license anymore (f.e. version 5 comes out and you want to say at 4 and don't pay license anymore), the build in anti-spam will not work anymore. So the variety of protection possibility's or at least customization of these in IPS is a bit poor imho.

    Ive just added s new feature... Our spam prevention suite will check  the banned IP addresses for the contact us form in the next release 🙂 so once the IP or the members was banned, they won’t be able to access the contact us form .
