If profile fields are "Unknown" can you please hide them. This takes up space. Thanks


#2268722 Suggestion: Allow the sidebar to be displayed on every page

Posted Earl Grey on 18 May 2012 - 12:42 PM

There doesn't currently seem to be a mod that permits this and I think it would be a fine addition to the site if you were able to place the sidebar on every page. This doesn't have to be a compulsory option, you could turn it on and off, but I personally would love to see this!


#2268139 Can something be done about the facebook bot?

Really dislike the fact that these can't be hidden from users now. Also they really clutter the online users list and skew the total online number. I also remember being able to hide these form the online list in the past, but can't any longer.


#2193380 [REQUEST] Ability to close poll without closing topic

Posted RObiN-HoOD on 08 November 2011 - 02:51 PM

I believe the polls should be generally upgraded but for starters what I need is to be able to close a poll (not being able to vote) without closing the topic.

#2183927 Suggestion for IPB 3.2... Global Sidebars

Than, what's the formula?  Or is this another arm-chair quarterback type of response?



Agreed.  Some schooling would be useful here.
ACP->look&Feel->skin->globalTemplate....
ipsLayout at default likely does not have the width you need, so first, add to ipbstyles.css a new definition at very end as so:
.ipsLayout_myruleleft.ipsLayout_withleft { padding-left: 320px; }
.ipsLayout_myruleright.ipsLayout_withright {  padding-right: 320px; clear: left; }
.ipsLayout_myruleleft.ipsLayout .ipsLayout_left { width: 300px; margin-left: -320px; float: left; }
.ipsLayout_myruleright.ipsLayout  .ipsLayout_right { width: 300px;  margin-right: -320px; float: right; }
Then, back to said GlobalTemplate.
the trick here is to be smart about the markup.
find:
<!-- ::: CONTENT ::: -->
	{$items['adHeaderCode']}
	<if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">{$html}</if>
	{$items['adFooterCode']}
you want to do something like so:
<!-- ::: CONTENT ::: -->
	{$items['adHeaderCode']}
	<if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">
<div class='ipsLayout ipsLayout_withright ipsLayout_myruleright clearfix'>
<div class='ipsLayout_right'>
SideBar... Nice handy place to put all your adds and stuff, people cant close it, but if you are serving ads you dont want them to, eh?
</div>
<div class='ipsLayout_content clearfix'>
   {$html}
</div>
</div>
</if>
	{$items['adFooterCode']}

Now then, you are going to want to disable hooks on board index likely, as there's no decent method of global sidebar with the board index hooks.
then, you are going to want to pull out your firebug, inspect element what/have/you and go through places like blog, boards, regs and such and find elements(usually Fields) that overflow, if any.
these are handily dealt with.
the other apps sidebars can be snipped if needed, but there shouldn't be that need if you have twitched items appropriately... honestly how much work needs to be done for it is based on a SKINS width....
which makes shipping a pre-made solution un-viable IMHO... how do you support every skin width under the sun?


#2259170 Notification when someone like your article and like your commentary

Posted boboss78 on 24 April 2012 - 11:58 AM

there's no option to receive the notifications when someone like your article and like your commentary, it's a a bug or normal ?

if it's normal, i think the next version will need this amelioration


#2250349 [Suggesttion] Follow a member (like Twitter)

Posted tonami on 04 April 2012 - 11:33 PM

I love Friends function of IPB, and I have a feeling that it's not really a "friendship", someone add you like friend and you just become friends! My first question is there anyway to require an approval when someone add friend as default function?

I think a function like Follow a member (become a Fan, a follower...) will make IPB much more social, so members can follow any update of people they follow. Also they can see who follow them. And a member when he add someone as friend, if not accepted, he still can follow him/her to see updates.


What do you think about this function?


#2242432 No quick way to get to IPS homepage

Posted rbiss on 19 March 2012 - 10:35 AM

It seems awkward the way you have 3.3.3 set up here. Only way I can see to get to your homepage is to click a series of links or go to the copyright link at the bottom (or fill in url address bar).  Unless I'm blind.
