Automatically synchronize WordPress' user roles with IPS community suite groups! No core files touched! Once you have mapped the WordPress user roles with IPS user groups of your choice, you will get IPS secondary usergroups synced with WordPress' user roles. Primary Group in IPS community suite remains untouched - this allows you to give users in IPS and WordPress extra permissions without showing them to public. You can map each WordPress user role to a unique corresponding IPS user group or map several WP user roles to the same IPS user groups - once a user group in IPS is removed or added from member, all mapped user roles from WordPress are synced instantly, too. Important Requirements: IPBWI for WordPress v4 installed on WordPress and IPS Community Suite Please note that we only test on most recent release version of IPBWI for WordPress v4.

This entry is about our IPS Community Suite 4.2 release. Following on from our previous entry about the new Recommended Replies feature, we also have one more small feature change that will be very useful. Content Message is a small feature available in all IPS Community Suite content areas (forums, blogs, gallery, etc.) and allows a moderator to put a message at the top of any item. Topic with a moderator message This is useful if you have a special use for the area people are posting in, need to encourage conversation to stay on topic, or perhaps the conversation is becoming heated and you need to remind people to behave. Sometimes the smallest features can prove the most useful and already I have found myself reaching for this feature out of habit from using it on our test 4.2 installs and missing it on our production site. I cannot wait to have it available and I am sure you will enjoy the ability to add custom notes to any area of the Suite. Development Note For our power users: this feature and the Recommended Replies feature use a new content meta data capability. This allows you to store miscellaneous data that is attached to a content item which does not need to be otherwise searched or exposed unless you are viewing that item. We will provide technical details on this later but it is a really easy way to store data about content without having to create additional tables or methods. View the full article

This entry is about our IPS Community Suite 4.2 release. Sometimes you may find situations where you want to highlight one or more replies to a content item to bring attention to a really great response. This is especially true on busy communities where you might have dozens or even hundreds of replies in a single discussion. There is now an ability for a moderator to Recommend a reply (or multiple replies) and even leave an optional note explaining why they think you should view that post. Moderator Permission Optional note for recommended reply When a reply is Recommended you will see a snippet at the top of the content item along with the optional moderator note and a link to jump right to that reply. A topic with a recommended reply. You can Recommend more than one reply and this feature works through IPS Community Suite in forum topic, blog entries, gallery images, and so on. You can set this permission along with other moderator permissions in the AdminCP. We really think this will allow moderators to bring attention to some of the best replies and guide users to the best content your community has to offer. View the full article

We are well into development on IPS Community Suite 4.2 and are excited to start announcing all the new features and improvements. Our next big release is focused on engagement with your members. You will see enhancements to our Reputation system, new ways to encourage people to register on your community, and enhancements to existing features to make them more interactive. There are also entirely new capabilities we cannot wait to show you ranging from new ways to organize content to tools to help promote your community. Version 4.2 also features a refreshed AdminCP and default front-end design. Theme changes in 4.2 are mostly in the CSS framework so your existing themes will either work without issue or require minor changes to work in the new version. Over the next several weeks we will be posting news entries with previews of upcoming features fairly often. Be sure to follow our News section, our Facebook, or Twitter to stay up to date. We expect IPS Community Suite 4.2 to be out in mid-2017 with a public preview available sooner. Everyone at IPS has worked very hard on this update and we think you will love it!

Pages SuperSlider is a versatile and customizable slider/swiper block template for Pages database blocks. Check out the live demo to see it in action. SuperSlider is fully responsive, touch-enabled for mobile devices and works in the main content column of single-column pages or in the sidebar. The appearance and functionality can easily be customized through dozens of options in the settings plugin. You can create any number of sliders and also combine them on one page. But all sliders will share the same settings. What’s needed: IPS 4.1 in its most recent version with the Pages application A pages databases that uses the stock Record Image field and has images with a sufficient resolution uploaded through that field. What’s included: The slider/swiper plugin which gives access to the settings and installs the jQuery slider and the CSS. The SuperSlider block template, which can be assigned to any Pages database block Detailed Feature Description and Notes: Pages SuperSlider is built with the IPS design framework and is therefore fully responsive and should be compatible with most well-coded/well-designed themes. The template is designed to work on single-column pages (with or without a sidebar) and in the sidebar. SuperSlider currently comes with these options: Block features: turn block headline on or off add padding around the slider choose background color Slider features: choose slider type: slide, fade, coverflow, flip add thumbnail navigation bar turn auto-play on or off set auto-play delay loop slides or stop at the end/beginning show or hide navigation arrows select arrow color show or hide dot navigation below the slides use dark or light mode for dot navigation set slider to Right-to-Left mode Image settings: Image aspect ratio for main column Use thumbnail images in main column Image aspect ratio for sidebar column Use fallback image when records have no record image Text settings: Title alignment: left, center, right Title background color Title background opacity Support notes: If you change settings and don’t see an effect, wait until the caching time of your sidebar blocks has passed or remove the slider block and add it again to refresh its code instantly. The slider uses JavaScript and is based on the open source software Swiper (by iDangero.us). I only support the implementation of this slider module, not its own functionality. If the slider itself causes problems (e.g. doesn’t work properly in older browsers) or conflicts with other third-party software on your site, I cannot help you. I only support my own code used to implement the slider into the IPS Community suite. View the full article

What does it do? This plug-in prevents your members from trying to steal attention by entering a title in purely uppercasing, with lots of punctuation and will try and strip to a more readable format that is constant with your board posting guidelines. Plug-in Settings: Case Types: There are 5 different types of casing that you can use. No Modification, Sentence Case, Upper Case, Lower Case and Title Case. Excessive Punctuation: This tries to reduce excessive punctuation from the title. This will turn ??????? to ? and !!!!!! to !. Exception Words: These are word of your choosing that will never have their casing changed, regardless of your plug-in settings. If the word is upper case, all of these words in the title will be forced Upper case for example. Remove Characters: These are characters that will be removed regardless of how many there are in the title text. Names that begin with O', Mc or Mac will be processed automatically from o'neill to O'Neill or mcneill to McNeill. At the moment, only the Forum Topics and Pages Applications will have their titles changed. View the full article
