Should this be update not updare?

updare core_members set pp_setting_count_comments = 1;

There are 2 settings in the ACP...I found another in Profiles> Profile Settings but I have it set to on by default yet they are not on by default for all groups...

There’s a setting to enable it by default since 4.3.

I found that setting in group>Edit>Social but it must just allow them to activate it in their profile.

There's no sidebar widget for this in the core!

They can update their status from the create menu or from their profile once they activated the status updates!

None of my groups have Status in the create menu and I do have a sidebar widget on my index page?  How do members activate status?

ETA...I see the on/off button in member's profile.  Is there any ACP setting to turn them on by default?

I am able to make status updates from the side bar widget and CREATE menu but only as ADMIN.  I have all my other groups set to use Status Updates but no other groups can add updates!  Am I missing something here?

I see that content searches have a button to take you to the first unread post, but no button on the thread list?  Any way to add it?

Ah, OK...so no option to turn off per post/reply?  It is either on or off for the entire group?

This may be a stupid question, but why are some posts highlighted in yellow...what is going on here?

Got it!  Thanks guys!

I want to set up ADMIN to be able to post HTML in 1 forum (so I can post buy now paypal buttons for forum merch.  I found the setting for the group but how do I turn it on for the forum?

Ips is very quick and efficient providing support from what I have seen. Maybe your ticket got lost in the array of other tickets?

In meanwhile, can you tell us step by step how did you run the converter? If you log in and check the database where your Ipb forum resides on, is the content from your MyBB forum in there?

No, nothing in my database from the old forum.

I entered the info into the converter but the paths to my old forum were not working so I sent a ticket to my host for clarification.  The next morning, I went to continue the conversion  and it popped up a message that it was converting and then finished!  In less than 1 second!  Now I am unable o start a new MyBB conversion as it says that I have already completed it.  And now I am stuck!

ETA...I just got a reply back from IPS...they tracked down my issue, fixed it and will be adding it to the next release!  They also removed the failed conversion so I can try again!  But it will have to wait until tomorrow morning now...I have to head home from work!

Is it normal to wait for days to get answers from a ticket?  I got a few replies fast the other day and no nothing for almost 2 days!  I still haven't been able to run the converter.

What do you mean with “haven’t done anything?” It’s normal if they’re not shown in the frontend because the permissions aren’t set yet.

Do you see any imported members and forums in the ACP or are they missing there too? Please submit a ticket if they’re missing there, if not, please just review the forum permissions 🙂 

Yeah nothing.  No forums, no members...nothing.  I have a ticket in now.

I have a new problem...the converter says it has finished but it hasn't done anything to the new install!  When I try to start a new conversion, it says that I can't because it was already finished!  So, now what, LOL?

It's not a URL, but a full path, read this: https://www.kbpublisher.com/kb/how-can-i-find-my-full-server-path_289.html

I have been all through that, but nothing seems to work!

Hi guys, I am trying to convert from MyBB to IPB but I cannot get the full paths to MyBB installation to work on the converter.   There are 3 instances that I need to fill...emoticons, members and attachments.

I did install IPB on the same server as the MyBB forum...it is actually in same directory (7173mustangs.com) but I installed IPB in 7173mustangs.com/forums (new directory)

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
