I am running a music related site and within my downloads I have extra fields such as Genre, Filetype, BPM, Key, etc. The search feature will not pull results from any of the fields. Like if I search "disco" and have a file with the extra field genre containing Disco, it will just display 0 results. Is there any way to change this? Or is this just native programming behavior I won't be able to avoid?

Answering my own question. My best workaround was to edit the HTML/CSS in the theme section. Templates > Downloads > View > downloadButton. Added a target='_blank' to the a link and changing the button text to ask users to right click save as to download directly. Otherwise google serves and plays the file in browser in a new window.

I am using external file URLs from my google drive instead of hosting files on my server directly. It works just fine but when the download button is clicked it opens the file directly in the current tab. Is there anything I can tweak to make the download button open the file in a new tab instead or force the download? EDIT: example of my site/download situation here - https://mixnmashmusic.com/files/file/2-victoria-monet-experience-feat-khalid-sg-lewis-diy-filtered-instrumental-by-mix-n-mash/

Currently: "Froot" and "Immortal" by Marina and the Diamonds. Mostly this week: Alanis Morissette - some of my favorite tracks from her "Jagged Little Pill" and "Flavors of Entanglement" albums.

All of these places sound great and nice to travel to (or make future plans to travel to)! Makes me wish I had the ability to travel more! haha

While I enjoy the thought of that idea, the forum is actually still being setup and finalized. I just recently set it up a few days ago and its a fresh, new site without any following whatsoever. So sadly I cannot make a poll but perhaps when people become active that can be an idea for down the road! Kudos to you for the idea!

Lol while that is true it would also be really difficult for me to do this idea, too. I like many artists and it would be difficult trying to nail things down to specific songs or albums as rankings. Plus I have a feeling that users (who don't complain) won't grasp the idea of the hierarchies that easily. My next idea would be music terms like speeds or perhaps terms for volume levels. And if all else fails and my creativity burns out, I may just settle on generalized member ranks but word them a little better than the generic ones that come with IP.Board

My only beef with that idea is the fact that the music site is not nailed down to one artist. If you have been around the music communities that exist online you know hardcore fans exist and fanwars start easily. I can already hear it now if I used the album or singles as member ranks "Why is Gaga the top rank possible, she isnt even the best", "Why is P!nk below Britney Spears, everyone knows britney is better. F*** p!nk" "Omg why would you even use Madonna, she is such an old hag" etc etc. I can just see it making people upset for no reason because they feel offense that an artist they like wasnt the rank they thought.

Wow. This looks simply awesome! I love purple, so that's a plus for me But the layout is awesome. Clean and sleek, simple yet looks beautiful! Keep up the good work!

Here is mine. I don't know if you guys will get the hint, but I like music.. >_>

Welcome Mold! Good to see someone eager to join and help! The joke may have been a little corny, Phun, but I still chuckled

Never thought about that. That actually sounds like a really cool idea!

I am currently in the works of a site using IP.Board centered around building a community for remixers and mash-up artists and music (discussion) in general. I dont want to use the generic "Newbie" "Member" etc ranks and am in need of some guidance or advice on something crafty or neat I could name them, possibly something to do with music itself but doesn't need to be. Thank you for anyone who can share some ideas and get the creative juices flowing

For me, all of my travelling has been done inside of the United States - a) because it's my home, b) because I have never had enough money to travel more abroad. In my personal experience some of the best places I have visited include: San Antonio, Texas While it is horribly hot and I'm not used to the type of heat they have, visiting was pretty awesome. It had the River Walk which was lovely to walk around both during the day but especially at night because it was a bit cooler. The shops were pretty neat (albeit expensive) and it was the first time I had eating/visited a Hard Rock Cafe in my life, which added to the experience. I also visited the 6 flags there as well and while I originally feared many of the coasters at first, I ended up riding all of them and thoroughly enjoying myself. I also got to visit some outskirt parts of Texas (some of which I can't remember the names to) which had kind of "old western" type feels to them. Shops and buildings still looked old and not-so-modern and the people were genuine and provided good service. Overall it was a nice visit for the short time I was there. Orlando, Florida My homestate is Florida but to be honest, I don't / didn't visit a lot of different parts of it (I especially don't now since I no longer live there lol). Mainly due to financial reasons. But for my senior trip we went to the Universal Orlanda / Islands of Adventure theme park. This was by far one of my greatest experiences because I overcame a lot of fears here. Before this time in my life the worst rides I had ever been on was just regular, non-upside-down rollercoasters. Nothing that went up too high, or dropped you too far, or went upside down or did anything crazy. The whole ride there my friends were telling me I had to ride their ride first because it would get me used to the experience and told me it wouldn't go upside down or anything. Little did I know I was being tricked into riding a thing called Doctor Doom which is one of those "sit down with a bunch of people in a circle ride and they launch you way the hell up in the air and then you plummet down and then launches you again and plummet down with less momentum until you stop" type rides. Needless to say with my fear of heights and fear of thrill rides, I freaked out the whole way in line, while being seated and during the ride. It was devastating at first but looking back at it now it makes me laugh. After that ride, though, I rode all the rollercoasters they had, including upside down ones and super fast ones, and also even went on Doctor Doom a second time. Riding all the rides and a little peer pressure with my friends got me to overcome my horrible fear of thrill rides and even to this day I sometimes get nervous on a new ride and have some gut wrenching feelings on them but overall I still go on them and still have a great time. I could go on, but I feel just a couple places was enough to talk about. I am interested in hearing some stories of places others have visited! Perhaps it can even give some people travel / vacation ideas!

Currently I am listening to Jo Dee Messina's new album "Me". More specifically a few songs from it I especially like like "He's Messed Up" "Say Goodbye to Superman" and "A Woman's Rant". People often think I am strange for listening to Country music though
