    I've bought a IPB license for FBodyOnline and set up a test site to try out the converter and look for potential problems when I do a final conversion later on. Hopefully in the next couple months after I add my design and some modifications.

  2. I just purchased www.IPBSetup.com and it was suggested to me that I use that URL vs the current www.IPBHelp.me I like the .me I have, I think it's catchy, but I do see a point in useing a .com. If you had these two URL and wanted to make a general support site for IPB fans, which one would you use? Please vote also, does anyone know how I'd go about changing the URL in the IPB settings? I can do it in vBulletin blindfolded, but I'm still searching around in IPB for settings. Thanks everyone -Brandon

    I recently bought the domain https://notusing.net. I use it to park domains I am either going to sell or use in the future. When I got disgusted with Internet Brands attitude and vbulletin I had an idea. I have 5 unused vbulletin licenses. They all used to point to the domains they were installed. What I did was change the domains license to point to https://notusing.net. I didn't want any of the communities I have converted from vbulletin to IPB to be associated with the IB brand or vbulletin. I have since pointed all sorts of scripts that require a domain to be set for license purposes that I no longer use to the domain. If you want to use the domain just set …

    Help, i'm trying to log in. Resent my details, clicked the link in the mail and when I again enter the reCAPTHA code and click submit, I get this error: [#2013]

  8. Hi Brandon, Thanks for setting up the IPB version of setup. I like you, have moved one of my forums from vB to IPB. I thought I'd point out there is a page loading error on the home page. It's a java error related to the shout-box. I kept getting the same error myself whenever I enabled the shoutbox on the sidebar. I thought I'd point it out, if you figure out a fix, let me know! -Chris

  9. Hi Brandon, (old vb groupie here, hehe) I played around a bit with the forum index, as I found the default theme and many of its variants rather flat. If you look at the forum index, the only thing that pops out is the "In" and "By" in the third column. That's not exactly the desired meat and potatoes of any forum's front page, is it? :D Here's a quick and dirty of my test board with the default theme's forum titles gone bold: /monthly_01_2010/post-155-1338226680764_thumb.png Kind of like familiar old times, a bit, isn't it? Refreshing. :D Next project: turn unread topics bold on what we've come to know our forumdisplay page. That one is even flatter t…

  10. Would a IPS marketplace be a good idea here on our forums. We'll probably limit the scope of what can be bought/sold/traded to reduce the risk of scams and other garbage from flooding the forums. But I'm thinking a place where members can buy and sell their used IPS software licenses will be a nice place.

  11. ooo, I can to try my first IPB upgrade :)

    What are your thoughts on the swiftness of the search. Its hard to get a good compare between vB and IP in this area because I am unsure of either site hardware. I bring this up because the 'view new content' (only search I have really used yet) seems really lethargic on all the sites I have been on. Considering how swift and responsive the rest of the sites seem to be, the search seems like its choking up somewhere. Or is it just me? To me, search responsiveness (and of course relevance) is crucial. Couple other things: 1- Is there a way to not show already read threads in the 'new content' results (kind of like vB) or do I just need to get used to it again? …

  16. As a potential vB convert, how do you add comments to photos in the galleries? There is a comment count, but I'm not seeing a button or link to add a comment?

    What are your plans for Thanksgiving? Are you going to be doing a lot of traveling, maybe just staying home and have people go to your house?

    Anyone here like to cook on the grill? Yea? Well so do I. But I think my pit is a little small. Plans are to build a bigger one when I get some free time. The handle on the little pit needs to be fixed, but it still works. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc194/kevcj/Bar-b-q%20pictures/DSC03813Small.jpg And here is my bigger pit. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc194/kevcj/Bar-b-q%20pictures/IMG_4088Small.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc194/kevcj/brett%20wedding/DSC09829Small.jpg

    Why is it that many (or most) American boards have the general forums as last forum? I see it many times, the introductions, feedback etc are all downstairs. I find it a bit strange an does not welcome me as new member. Ok, I know how it goed, but there are more people who don't. I like it better to have the general forum on top. In it are the rules, announcements etc etc, almost anything a new member needs to read and needs to feel at home. So can you explain why it is pretty common to do it this way?
