I been scouring the web trying to find information on changing the default CCS template to incorporate my custom template. Same as you have done here :) The lack of documentation has me a bit frustrated so I'm hoping you can help me. Basically how do we change the CCS to use our custom templates?

Here is the php code I use for displaying random banners in my forums. I use it in my global template and just place $random_banner[$random_number] where you want the banner images to appear. This is tested on IPB 3 with images only and not 3rd party delivery methods such as Adsense <php>$random_number = rand(1, 5); $random_banner[1] = '<a href="link"><img src="img" alt="img alt" border="0" /></a>'; $random_banner[2] = '<a href="link"><img src="img" alt="img alt" border="0" /></a>'; $random_banner[3] = '<a href="link"><img src="img" alt="img alt" border="0" /></a>'; $random_banner[4] = '<a href="link">…

Still deciding what would be best for my website. Anyone have experience using both of these? I am set to use Ip.Board but still deciding on the CMS. I have no experience using CMS but I am quite comfortable working with codes. From what I gathered, ip.content will be the easiest to make my main page have the same look as the i.board. and to pull information from ip.board to be shown on the page. While Drupal has a very good file management system but the IPB integration could break when I upgrade either of the software. My website has a lot of data and tons of pages; I estimate upwards 200+ pages. Most of them will be static pages however. In this case how would ip…

I noticed you have it setup like that here. How do I remove the extra /forum/ that is added to the url? /topic/ to for threads if you don't mind.

Is there a way to change the behavior of the "View New Content" link? I would much rather have it display the most recent... say 150.... threads that had activity in them. Right now, if I am looking a the thread list, read a few, and then log in from another computer, only the threads created since I last logged in are shown even though there are still threads that I haven't read. I'm on IPB3.04

At least it was new to me. Our newest members, tshirts, edited the profile page. On their profile they added a image in the shape of a heart which was also a poem. See the status updates in the sidebar. On first glance it seemed pretty innocent and even struck me as a unique addition to a profile. It almost got past me and in fact it would have if I didn't notice the link that was also left. The link itself didn't even seem like spam on first glance. I clicked and then the spam radar clicked in. The page was filled with at least 1000 links. Now I go back the tshirts profile and check the image a little closer. When I hovered over it I couldn't believe my eyes. This ima…

Anyone know the code to add profile fields back to the postbit area? I'm using a custom skin and apparently it's missing from it, and I've tried to find the code from a default template but wasn't successful on it.

I do. I have it installed on Computer Help Forums although I haven't been able to finish the import scripts so I can import my old downloads from Links and Downloads manager the system I used with vbulletin. Just like the other official addons that you can buy it does what it's designed for and does it well. I was able to add a large VM by ftp to get around my 32M php upload limit.

In vBulletin you could put the board into debug mode add a Product then add a Setting Group to vBulletin options and put settings in there. For example I made a plugin for my theme called Social Media, then put options for people to enter their username for popular social media sites. Then I put links to their profiles in the footer using something like $vbulletin->options['bsmediasocial'] or whatever. So how can I do something similar with IPB?

As I keep looking around within IPB, I keep finding more ways to help improve SEO. In THIS THREAD I outlined a way to edit two Invision Community Forum files to remove the forum name from the page title. Now let's move on and edit two files to accomplish the same with Invision Community Blog. If you make these two simple edits, it will prevent the forum name from being included on your blog page and on your blog entry pages. This will give more weight to your blog name and to your blog entries. The first file to edit is /admin/applications_addon/ips/blog/modules_public/display/entry.php The line you are looking for is in the block identified as - …

You can use this forum to help tune your mysql server. One of the most important tasks you can do to your server is to tune mysql to use only the resources to make it run smooth. If you don't tune mysql you could very well slow down your whole server because mysql will eat up the resources.

If you notice on the main blog page it only shows 2 blog entries. I can't for the life of me find the setting to change. I want at least 5 entries. There is a setting for default amount of posts to show on the blog page, but, it seems to affect only member blogs and not the main blog index. Anyone know how to get the page to show more than 2 blog posts?
