In one of his staff blogs, ATC made the following claim:
- Quote:
-
On an ending note I would just like to say I could probably defeat Cybrus in a battle of who know's more about Invisionfree.
Based on that, I hereby challenge ATC to an Invisionfree knowledge challenge. The challenge will be broken down into three rounds:
Round 1: I will ask ATC 10 IF based questions. A point is awarded for every question answered correctly. No points are awarded for incorrect answers.
Round 2: ATC will ask me 10 IF based questions. Same point rules apply.
Round 3: Open support questions. Any member that wishes to do so can ask an invisionfree based question. ATC and myself will take turns answering the questions. By that I mean that he'll be given the chance to answer the first question. If he cannot, I'll be given a chance to answer. Then I'll have first crack at the second question. If I cannot answer it, then ATC will be given a chance to answer. One point will e awarded for every correct answer.
All challenges need rules. I think these rules are both appropriate and fair:
Basic Rules
- IF Based Questions Only - This is an invisionfree challenge. Questions regarding full Invision Power Boards, proboards, phpbb forums, or any other free or paid forum software is not included in this challenge.
- No advanced skinning questions - Basic questions regarding installation of skin CSS, board wrappers, and images are fine. However, more advanced questions about skins shouldn't be asked. Advanced skinning goes above and beyond basic IF knowledge.
- No advanced coding questions - This is not a coding challenge. I do not know how to create codes or anything of the sort. Basic code installation questions are acceptable, but nothing advanced.
I'll wait before I post my questions so that ATC can post in here to confirm he is accepting the challenge, and offer any possible rules changes he may have.

There's no set time limit, but it shouldn't take overly long to answer the questions. I'll have my questions up shortly.

This wasn't stated in the official rules, but obviously neither of us are permitted to go to a support forum and ask for help. If a question wasn't phrased to your liking or if you are not quite sure what I'm asking, please ask me to re-phrase the question before you start answering any of the other questions. Once you answer even one question, I will no longer rephrase any question. Any question you fail to answer, at the at point, will be counted as a missed question.

1. I am brand new to Invisionfree. I want to set up a folder that can only be seen by moderators. How would I do it? 2. I want to set up my forum so that you x amount of posts before you can enter certain folders. How do I do that? 3. I want my members to have certain titles as they increase in post count. For example, when a member has less than 20 posts I want his member title to be "Newbie", then when he has more than 20 posts I want his member title to be "member in training". How do I do this? 4. I want my moderators to have a different team icon than my members. How do I set it up so that my moderators will have something that says "Moderator" underneath their avatar and stuff? 5. I want my forum to be unique. Instead of following traditional format, I want my threads to show up in reverse order. When you open a thread, it normally goes: Opening post, reply 1, reply 2, reply 3, etc. I want to reverse that so that it goes reply 3, reply 2, reply 1, opening post. Basically, I want the newest post to appear in the first post on the first page instead of the last post of the last page. How do I do this? 6. I want to change the color of one thread title so that it appears in red font. How do I do that? 7. The timestamp for posts shows hours:minutes am/pm. How do I add the seconds to the time stamp so that it shows hours:minutes:seconds am/pm? 8. In the roleplaying archive folder of 6SW, I want to add a roleplay search at the top. Not a real search, mind you, but I want to organize it so that you can click a link and you can view the roleplays ordered by poster from A to Z. Another link that shows the roleplays organized by posters from Z-A, and so on. How would I do this? 9. I bought a domain for my forums. How do I set it up so that the domain appears in the address bar instead of z13.invisionfree.com/board 10. I want to make a few folders that can be viewed by anyone, but only if they know how to find the folders. I do not want to folders to appear on the main forum page or as a subforum of any folder. How do I do this?

Rephrase this please. Do you want the threads in reverse order or the replies themselves?

We are going by the honor system. It is ok to look inside the admin CP, since you'll have to give detailed instructions for proper support. But it would be cheating if either of us went to a support board and looked up old support topics, documentaries, or anything like that.

1. I am brand new to Invisionfree. I want to set up a folder that can only be seen by moderators. How would I do it?
A: First you would have to create a moderator group by going to "Manage User Groups" under the category "Users and Groups", its pretty self explanitory making a group. Just set the settings the way you want them to. After this click on "Permission Masks" under "Forum Control" in your Admin CP and create a new forum mask called Moderators or something like that, I suggest making it inherit the Member Forum Mask for now. After this you should create the forum you want visable by only moderators and do all the settings and what-not. When you reach the bottom of the settings there should be a check box that says "Permission Access Levels" now where it says Admin Forum Mask and whatever you named the forum mask you created check the boxes horizontally. Click "Create this forum" and there you have it!
2. I want to set up my forum so that you x amount of posts before you can enter certain folders. How do I do that?
A: Well, first you have to create two different groups. Go to "Manage User Groups? under category "Users and Groups" and create two new groups by whatever name you choose. Next you must go to the "Permission Masks" under "Forum Control" create two forum masks there now. After this go back to your groups and select one of them, switch the groups permission mask where it says "Use Forum Permission Access" to the people you don't wish to be able to view this forum. Next go down the settings of the group until you see "Group Promotion" switch the drop-down box to the other group you created and choose the amount of posts you wish the member to have before they can view the forum in the box below. Hit "Complete Edit" Next you should create the forum, go to "New Forum" and create it doing all the settings and all that. When you reach the bottom select the forum masks you want to be able to view and post in this forum and check the boxes horizontally (Make sure you don't check the boxes of the group you don't want to view the forum by mistake.) Now, if you want the forum to appear visable to the members you don't want to view the contents of the forum, create yet another forum and when your done with all the settings and reach the permission masks only check the boxes of the new permission mask you placed the group you didn't want to view the forum.. and there you go!
3. I want my members to have certain titles as they increase in post count. For example, when a member has less than 20 posts I want his member title to be "Newbie", then when he has more than 20 posts I want his member title to be "member in training". How do I do this?
A: Go to "User Title/Ranks" under "Users and Groups" there you will see default Member Titles set up. Click edit on the one you wish to change and change the name and the amount of posts you want before you can have that title, also you can edit the pips for how many pips you want below your member title. Repeat with the other two if needed. Now if you find yourself needing more than three Member Titles then there is a box with the title "Add a member rank" right below the three member ranks you have already. Type in all the info as if you where editting it and select the pip number you want the rank to have.. and your done!
4. I want my moderators to have a different team icon than my members. How do I set it up so that my moderators will have something that says "Moderator" underneath their avatar and stuff?
A: Go to "User Title/Ranks" under "Users and Groups" and at the bottom there will be something saying "Upload a pip" click the browse button next to the box and search for the image you want your moderator's to have. Double-click it and then click "Upload pip". After you've done this go to "Manage User groups" also under "Users and Groups" and select to edit your moderator group. Once there the third option should say "Group Icon" click on the drop-down box and the pip you uploaded earlier's name (The name you saved it to your computer.) should be there. Select it and scroll down to the bottom, click "Complete Edit" and your done.
5. I want my forum to be unique. Instead of following traditional format, I want my threads to show up in reverse order. When you open a thread, it normally goes: Opening post, reply 1, reply 2, reply 3, etc. I want to reverse that so that it goes reply 3, reply 2, reply 1, opening post. Basically, I want the newest post to appear in the first post on the first page instead of the last post of the last page. How do I do this?
A: Go to "Topics, Posts and Polls" under "System Settings" in your Admin CP. Scroll down till you see something that says "Posts and Posting" under that category of Topics Posts and Polls. Find where it says "Order posts within a topic" it should say "Ascending 0-9" in a drop-down box and then switch it to the other option where it says "Descending 9-0", scroll down to the bottom and click "Submit Changes" and there you go!
6. I want to change the color of one thread title so that it appears in red font. How do I do that?
A: Edit your topic title so it says the following "<font color="red">[Insert Text]</font>" and enter it.
7. The timestamp for posts shows hours:minutes am/pm. How do I add the seconds to the time stamp so that it shows hours:minutes:seconds am/pm?
A: Click "Date & Time Formats" in your Admin CP under "System Settings" when you get in you should see three seperate box's. In the first one you should see something like "jS F Y - h:i A" change it to "jS F Y - h:i:s A", then in the third box down you should see something like "M j Y, h:i A" change it to "M j Y, h:i:s A" and your seconds are added.
8. In the roleplaying archive folder of 6SW, I want to add a roleplay search at the top. Not a real search, mind you, but I want to organize it so that you can click a link and you can view the roleplays ordered by poster from A to Z. Another link that shows the roleplays organized by posters from Z-A, and so on. How would I do this?
A: For this go down to the bottom of the lists of threads until you find three seperate drop down boxes with different things in them. Change the first drop down box where it says "last post date" to topic starter. Next, in the second drop down box where it says "descending order" change it to the opposite "ascending order" the only other option. Click "Go!" and your forums are listed as you requested, or if your the admin and want to do this simply edit the forum and scroll to the bottom where it says. "Default sort key and Default sort order" switch them to what I stated earlier and edit your forum.
9. I bought a domain for my forums. How do I set it up so that the domain appears in the address bar instead of z13.invisionfree.com/board
A: In your Admin CP click "Domain Manager" under the category "Invisionfree Network" scroll down to the bottom where it says "Add Domain Names" enter your Domain Name you purchased into the box below and click "Submit" you will be able to see if this worked because Invisionfree will send you an email. Once verified where it says "Select Primary Domain Name" switch the drop-down box to your domain that should be listed.. your domain is in effect!
10. I want to make a few folders that can be viewed by anyone, but only if they know how to find the folders. I do not want to folders to appear on the main forum page or as a subforum of any folder. How do I do this?
A: Alright, first of all make a forum that only you can see or any other Admin on your forum, something like "Admin" should suffice, make sure you edit the permission masks so that you and other Admin's can see this forum. After you've done this create another forum, the name you want the folder to be called.The location of this forum should be a sub-forum for the Admin forum you just created. Where it says "Add to which parent" choose where it says "--- Admin" or whatever you named the forum. After this scroll down to the permission masks and check the boxes horizontally to whatever masks you want to view this secret forum. Next add the link to the forum wherever you want in a topic, forum description ect. and there you go a secret forum.
Only one I was kinda unsure of because I've done it like once and I forgot how to do it, I hope I got it right.

2. Your description was kind of confusing, and you made it harder than it really is, but I'll accept it.
6. Wrong. You have to create a topic multi-moderation to color topic titles. Adding HTML to the title manually will not result in a colored topic title.
8. Wrong. You told me how to order the forums, but you didn't answer my question. My question was how do I get that ordering at the top of the forum. The correct answer would be to scroll to the bottom of the forum, select the ordering I wanted, copy that URL. Go into the admin CP, manage forums, press the rules button to add rules to that particular folder, use HTML to insert the link (using the URL copied earlier), then select "show full text" for the rules display.
9. I'm iffy to accept, since you failed to mention that you have to first make sure the CNET name points to the server. I'll accept your answer though, since it'll tell you to point the CNET name to the server if you fail to do so before it'll add the domain to the list.
10. Wrong. I stated that I wanted the folders to be available to anyone, not just the admins. In order to do this, you must create a new category and make sure you select "Hidden from list - can access by URL if known" in the "Category state" drop down box, then move all the folders you want hidden into that category. That way, the folders will be completely hidden, but can still be access if you know the URL. This is how I hid SWF for the last year. The re-direct folder was linked to the hidden category. There was no special permission masks created, ever.
------
You missed three questions, which gives you a total score up to this point of 7. You can challenge any of the ones you missed. If you do not wish to challenge any, then please proceed with the game by posting your set of ten questions for me to answer.

7-10 isn't that bad? 10 was just another way of doing it, but since the question stated without subforums no arguements.

For number 10, if you did it your way, then the folder meant for admin view only would be visible on the main page for anyone that is allowed to view the subforum.

1. Please explain what (<% NAVIGATION %>, <% BOARD %>, <% STATS %> ect.) do in the Board wrappers of your Admin CP?
2. I am a Board Administrator and I want to show my members the amount of posts that have been posted daily for the month so they can see how well the forums doing. How would I be able to do this?
3. I want to restrict my Global/Super Moderators so that they can warn a member only twice a day so I don't have to worry about them abusing there power? How could I make this so?
4. I believe in privacy so I would like to change my board so that my members cannot see what other members are doing. (Last Click, Member Name) how could I disable this feature?
5. I'm a very efficent person and my friend who I planned on making a forum with cannot access a computer for a while. However, I want to make his account without going through all that nonsense of logging out and registering. Is there any way to do this from the Admin CP?
6. I'm one of those guys who absolutely despise emotions but I know members like to use them and how could I take those lovely facial expressions, but to satisfy my own needs I would like them to only be able to use "one" emotion per post. Is there any way I could make this happen, or do I have to endure those dreaded emotions?
7. I need to make it so that when somebody votes in a poll it will bump the topic to the most recent topic. How would I do this?
8. I started a hacking forum recently and I got a email saying that my board was deleted for violating there "Terms of Service", Support Tickets are to slow for my taste and I don't wanna start a whole new forum to ask. Could you please explain to me what rule I broke?
9. I was told my forum took up space? Where can I find how much space my forum takes up and how much I have left?
10. I want to send a global email to my moderators ONLY, but its waaay to slow to do it one by one. How would I be able to email all my moderators from Invisionfree?

Number 7 threw me for a loop. I'm almost certain that the feature existed at one time, but it is not an option inside the admin CP any longer. It has either been removed or I'm thinking of something else. Other than that, all the questions were extremely easy.
- Quote:

1. Please explain what (<% NAVIGATION %>, <% BOARD %>, <% STATS %> ect.) do in the Board wrappers of your Admin CP?
Navigation: That is the part above the forums that says "Forum name > Folder > Thread".
Board: This is your board. This is all your folders, all your threads, and so forth.
Stats: This is the board statistics area of your board. It is the part that tells you who is online, if there are any calendar dates, if there are any birthdays, and how many members and posts you have.
These are required on the board, so do not remove them. However, you can place codes above or below each section in order to have a certain feature appear on your board. For instance, if you wanted to put an announcement box below your navigation, then you'd locate the code, edit it to your liking, and put it below the "Navigation" part of the wrapper.

2. I am a Board Administrator and I want to show my members the amount of posts that have been posted daily for the month so they can see how well the forums doing. How would I be able to do this?
Begin by following the following trail:
Admin Cp > Statistics > Post Stats
You'll see an easy to use chart. Simply fill it out for the dates you want to show your posts statics, make sure you have "daily" selected in the time scale, then press "show". When the page loads, take a screen shot by pressing the "prt scr" button, which is located beside your backspace button. Paste that image into a Paint page or any graphic program of your choice, and save it. Then upload the image onto your desire image host, and post it wherever you wish on your board.

3. I want to restrict my Global/Super Moderators so that they can warn a member only twice a day so I don't have to worry about them abusing there power? How could I make this so?
Admin CP > System Settings > Warning Set-up
Scroll down until you see the "Global Moderator Permissions" area. Look for "Global Moderators can warn a member..." and enter 2 in the information box. Press "Submit Change" to complete.

4. I believe in privacy so I would like to change my board so that my members cannot see what other members are doing. (Last Click, Member Name) how could I disable this feature?
Admin CP > System Settings > Security & Privacy
Look in the "Privacy" section and you will see "Allow users to browse the Active Users list?". Select "No".
Also, if you want complete privacy, then you may want to consider doing the following:
Admin CP > System Settings > General Configuration:
Remove 'Users Browsing this forum' feature? > Yes Remove 'Users Browsing this topic' feature? > Yes
This will prevent members from seeing who is inside a folder and thread, respectively.

5. I'm a very efficent person and my friend who I planned on making a forum with cannot access a computer for a while. However, I want to make his account without going through all that nonsense of logging out and registering. Is there any way to do this from the Admin CP?
Admin CP > Users and Groups > Pre-Register
Fill in the required information, and press the "register member" at the bottom. Be sure to pass on the relevant information to your friend.

6. I'm one of those guys who absolutely despise emotions but I know members like to use them and how could I take those lovely facial expressions, but to satisfy my own needs I would like them to only be able to use "one" emotion per post. Is there any way I could make this happen, or do I have to endure those dreaded emotions?
Admin CP > System Settings > Topics, Posts & Polls
Look for: "Max. no. emoticons per post". Place "1" in the info box, scroll to the bottom and press the button to complete your edit.

7. I need to make it so that when somebody votes in a poll it will bump the topic to the most recent topic. How would I do this?
Admin CP > System Settings > Topics, Posts & Poll
That is the area of the Admin CP that controls the polls. As you can see, the option to bump polls is not there, which means it is not an option at this time. Sorry.

8. I started a hacking forum recently and I got a email saying that my board was deleted for violating there "Terms of Service", Support Tickets are to slow for my taste and I don't wanna start a whole new forum to ask. Could you please explain to me what rule I broke?
If you look within the Invisionfree Terms of Use, then you will see an area titled "Prohibited content":

Users may not post, upload, link to, or email any Content that contains, promotes, gives instruction about, or provides prohibited Content. Prohibited Content includes any Content that breaks any local, state, county, national or international law. Prohibited Content also includes: (a) Content that infringes upon any rights (including, but not limited to, copyrights and trademarks); (b) Abusive, threatening, defamatory, racist, or obscene Content; © Viruses or any other harmful computer software; (d) False information or libel; (e) Spam, chain letters, or pyramid schemes; (f) Gambling or Illicit drugs; (g) Terrorism; (h) Hacking or cheating Content for internet/online games; (i) Warez, Roms, CD-Keys, Cracks, Passwords, or Serial Numbers; (j) Pornography, nudity, or sexual material of any kind; (k) Excessive profanity; (l) Content that is invasive of privacy or impersonation of any person/entity; and (m) Hacking materials or information. Repeat copyright infringers will have access to InvisionFree terminated.
As you can see from the portions I have whitened for you, you are not allowed to discuss hacking. It even clearly says you board will be terminated for doing so.

9. I was told my forum took up space? Where can I find how much space my forum takes up and how much I have left?
It depends on what type of space you are referring too. Invisionfree does not limit the amount of raw data space your board uses. By that, I mean you are allowed to have an unlimited amount of posts, members, PM, and other type of raw data. There is no way to see how much space that takes up, unless you buy your data from Invisionfree. I have a feeling that this is not what you were asking, so I'll move on.
However, Invisionfree does limit the amount of uploads your board may have. To check how much space you have available and how much space you have used:
Admin CP > InvisionFree Network > Account Info
It divides everything for you so that you can see where most of your space is being used, and it summarizes all your space concerns at the bottom.

10. I want to send a global email to my moderators ONLY, but its waaay to slow to do it one by one. How would I be able to email all my moderators from Invisionfree?
Admin CP > Users and Groups > Bulk Email Members
Fill out the email however you wish. At the bottom of the screen, make sure that you select "Yes" next to "Send to group Global Moderator" and "Send group to moderators" (or whatever your name for global mods and mods may be). If you do not want to send the email to Global Mods, but just normal mods, then make sure you have "no" selected beside the Global Mod option. All other groups should be checked "No".

For 7, there is an option to do this.

Then scroll down to "Postable Forum Settings" then click yes where it says "Allow votes to bump a topic?"

I knew it was there somewhere. I should have searched more. 
The score stands at:
Cybrus: 9 ATC: 7
If anyone has any questions they'd like to ask, then we'll take turns answering. If no one asks any questions, then I'll win.
