We are happy to announce a new promotion specifically for our loyal, existing customers. This promotion will allow you to fill in the gaps in your IPS community suite licenses at a discounted price.

New customers can get a discount based on how many IP.Board applications they purchase when they order. However, these discounts have not been available to existing customers who might wish to pick up application licenses they do not have to complete their IPS suite lineup.

Anyone with a current, active IP.Board license (Standard/Business/Perpetual/Lifetime) will be able to purchase the following applications at the reduced price listed:

• IP.Gallery: $64.99 ... $45
  
• IP.Blog: $49.99 ... $35
  
• IP.Downloads: $49.99 ... $35
  
• IP.Content: $49.99 ... $35

That's a total possible savings of $64.96!

Do you already have IP.Board and IP.Gallery but always wanted IP.Blog? Now is the time to purchase IP.Blog at a discounted price. Perhaps you have everything except IP.Content and are ready to power your whole web site with the IPS suite? Perfect time to give it a try!

To order: login to the client area, click the Complete the Suite link on the client area home page and pick the IP.Board license with which you wish to associate these new purchases.

Act fast! This promotion ends June 1, 2010.

Checking to see if roadmap plans to allow our members to purchase a banner ad spot, upload the banner and upon approval of ad, provide tracking stats to buyer?

If so this is a GREAT feature, it will allow me to break away from OpenX which is great in itself, but doesnt integrate with the forum memberbase, so as-is I have to request each banner, upload it, and pass out a separate (2nd.) login to advertising members.

Thanks!!!

Salutations.

1) When it comes to the IP Content many people have suggested it is much more powerful than the current vBulletin Content Management System, however we have seen many basic front pages like we see with vb4 sites is this software capable of being used as a news service with latest news with thumbnail images as our website front page?
IP.Content is more like the raw power behind a CMS.  To put it into very simple terms, it's like having a PHP environment within the IP.Board environment.  You can put in either HTML pages or PHP code and have access to most of the variables and functions that powers IP.Board itself.  You can create templates, blocks, databases and much more with it.  IP.Content v2 is coming with an articles system, which will let you more easily create content to view, without taking away from the power offered to you.  It's more like adding in a CMS within IP.Content.


2) Is there some sort of betting/credit mod available for IPB?
Do you mean a Points system?  If so, there is.


3) Apart from this site are there others out there that provide modifications and skins/themes?
There are several sites that offer modifications and skins.  Some offer both, others offer only the content that they deal with.


4) Is it possible to have static content pages filled with information?
You mean with IP.Content?  Yes.  If not, please explain.


5) Does IPB provide a paid subscription type of service/option?
Using IP.Subscriptions, which is a free add-on, you can permit your members to pay for memberships at intervals you choose.


6) Is there any type of discount for vBulletin subscribers desperate for a new beginning?
Not that I'm aware of, however if you purchase IP.Board and an add-on (or multiple add-ons), you get a discount for making a multiple purchase at one time.


Thank you to all in advance who supply answers to our questions.
No problem, please feel free to ask additional questions if you have any.  If/when you decide to make your purchase, feel free to use the links in my signature.  They will take you directly to the purchase page for your convenience.

A little digging into someone who's been threatening my boards has lead me to this:
http://de.crypt.in/t...jection-Exploit
is it new or did the security update for 3.0.1 fix this?

Sorry I couldn't post this anywhere else, my license ran out and I'm going to renew it once 3.1 is finished.

I've just updated this board to the very latest development copy again.

Please perform a hard refresh / delete any browser caches to ensure the very latest JS and CSS is retrieved by your browser. If you experience any JS errors or 'missing' features, it is likely to be a stale browser cache.

Notable improvements in this version:
- New mobile skin now fully integrated into 3.1



- New user-agents added to cover most modern mobile phones. These are tied to the mobile skin


- New notifications drop down and other notification improvements


Please note that the mobile skin is still being developed and as such, please expect to notice a few niggles here and there.

With the upcoming release of IP.Board 3.1 we are happy to announce a pre-release promotion so everyone can have the chance to become familiar with IP.Board on your community now and be ready for IP.Board 3.1 as soon as it's available.

We are pleased to announce IP.Gallery 3.1.0 has been released.

The following is a list of what's new in this version of IP.Gallery:

Friendly URLs
We've integrated gallery into the global FURL system used by IP.Board 3, this will allow gallery to create friendly URLs for categories, albums, and images.

Category/Album Covers
When viewing an image, you will have a new option to set that image as the 'cover' for the category or album that contains the image.  When a cover image is specified for a category or album, that image will always be displayed, in place of the last uploaded image thumbnail.

Sub Albums
Albums now support unlimited sub albums, which work exactly like gallery sub categories.

Profile Picture Album
You can now create a new kind of album, a 'Profile Picture' Album. After this album has been created, any images that you upload to it will be displayed on the change picture page in your User CP, making them easy to select as your profile image.

Image notes
Image owners are now able to add notes to sections of their images, positioning and resizing them to suit. Other members will be able to see the notes when hovering over the image. (An example)

Image rotation
Images can now be rotated in 90° increments, to compensate for those photos taken in landscape or portrait, but saved in the wrong orientation.

New slideshow
We have completely rewritten the slideshow feature! It is now a unified interface, loading images on demand as necessary. Users can play or pause the slideshow at will, or jump to specific photos using the thumbnail bar.

Friends-only albums
When creating an album, users can now choose to restrict viewing to only those users who are on their friends list.

Reputation support in comments
We have added support for IP.Board's reputation feature in comments posted within IP.Gallery.

Interface tweaks
We have updated the style of categories so that larger versions of the image are used, to give more impact. The image listing has also been updated, and will now show as many images on a row as the users browser can fit. This should improve the display of IP.Gallery for users who have higher screen resolutions. The image view screen has also been improved, including support for those features mentioned above.


Downloading

You can download IP.Gallery 3.1.0 if you have an active license in the client area. As always, make a backup of your community before proceeding.
