Manipura

ahhhhh and here comes the conflict i was having in my head great -_- lol

Thank You for your input, thats what I thought but wanted to be sure before i started messing around with the files

Thanks, I have that, What I meant is how do you get the Topic Title ONLY (No Description below)

So you guys have it so the similar topics descriptions and what not are removed, is this a skin edit, css or what?

GIMME CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Babymetal!!)

Solved it Myself.

You can always just change the Theme Images transparency prior to upload. The way it sounds is you would like to upload any photo and have a set default opacity. If you need help with making an image more transparent I can help. just post the image here and i'll take care of it

No, sorry

No idea whats going on... tried and failed many a time I give up help needed

Thanks! You should start seeing a change within a couple weeks!

What is your price range? Doesn't seem like a pressing matter... only advice Over do it, Get top notch graphics, ram, hdd space, and cooling system. I'd advise waiting a little bit though if you can. I Say that because this is releasing before 2015 http://www.bit-tech.net/news/hardware/2014/05/01/seagate-10tb/1 My Thoughts, partition the hard drive 4 ways boot Linux, Mac & Windows with 1/4 to spare as backup. I advise you do similar could last you a VERY long time.

Step One: Requirements Before installing, you need to make sure that your hosting environment meets the software requirements. Our requirements are listed on our web site and you can also download a script which will check if your server meets the requirements. You will also need your database information for the install of IP.Board. You will require the database name, the database (SQL) user and password. If you are unsure of this information, you should check with your hosting provider. There is an optional entry for table prefix. This is usually only required if you need to share a database with other third party products. If you're not sure if your sever meets the requirements, or you need any of the requirements explained, simply submit a support ticket and a technician will be happy to advise you. Step Two: Downloading You can download your software from the client area. Once logged in, select "Purchases" from the left-side menu and download the latest version of each piece of software you're installing by clicking your purchase (if you're just installing just IP.Board, you'll only need that, but if you also purchased IP.Gallery for example, you need to download that separately). Please note that IP.Calendar is now a separate application and can be found under the 'download' button on the IP.Board application along with IP.Chat and IP.Converge. Once downloaded, unzip the file and it will contain at least an "upload" folder, and possibly "Documentation" and/or "Tools", depending which package you're looking at. Step Three: Uploading You now have two choices. Either you may upload the files to your "webroot" so that your forums appear at 'http://www.domain.com' or you may create a new directory on your server named appropriately. If you wanted to access the forums via 'http://www.domain.com/forums/' create a directory called 'forums' in the webroot directory. The "webroot" directory is usually 'public_html', 'www' or 'httpdocs', but this varies from server to server so if you're unsure, contact your hosting provider. Using your FTP client, you can now move into the directory you wish to upload to (in the example above, we would move into the newly created 'forums' directory) and upload the the contents of the "upload" folder in the expanded zip archive you downloaded. You need to upload all the contents of the upload folder/directory as expanded. If you are installing more than one piece of software (for example, IP.Gallery in addition to IP.Board) you should also upload the contents of their "upload" folders to the same destination. You can choose to install additional software at the same time or skip this step and install it later. If you are installing IP.Nexus or IP.Converge, you must ensure your FTP client is set to upload files in binary mode before uploading. IP.Nexus requires either IonCube or Zend Optimizer to run. For all other products, auto mode is usually fine. Once you have finished uploading the files, you need to rename "conf_global.dist.php" to "conf_global.php". If you have uploaded IP.Content at the same time you will need to rename "media_path.dist.php" to "media_path.php" You should then CHMOD the files and directories. Below is a list showing the file structure and recommended permissions for the files and directories in the IPS Community Suite. The values may vary from system to system, if in doubt, please open a support ticket in the client area and a technician will be happy to advise you. Items in blue must be CHMOD 0777, or fully writeable (IUSR_<server-name> "Full Control") on a Windows server. Items in black must be CHMOD 0755, or normal values for a folder on a Windows server. Items in red must be CHMOD 0777 (or fully writeable on a Windows server - IUSR_<server-name> "Full Control") for installation, and then can be CHMOD 0644 (or normal values for a file on a Windows server). Items with * must be recursively performed to affect all sub-folders and files. admin blog colorpicker fonts cache * ccs_files * conf_global.php converge_local downloads * hooks * interface ips_kernel lofiversion public ipc_blocks * js min resources style_avatars style_captcha style_css * style_emoticons * style_extra style_images * screenshots * uploads * On a server that uses suPHP, all folders must be set to 0755, and all files to 0644, initially. The software may write some of its cache files at 0777, but those can be safely ignored If you're not sure what suPHP is then you can probably safely ignore this note. Note that upon successful installation, you may CHMOD conf_global.php back to just being readable without being writable. On many servers this corresponds to 0644. If you are installing other applications like IP.Gallery, IP.Content, etc. you can upload them along with your install and everything will install at the same time. Step Four: Installing 
You should now run the installer file through your web browser by entering the URL to it into your browser address bar (if you have followed our example, type in domain.com/forums/admin/install, naturally subsituting 'domain.com' for your web address). If there are any issues with the server set up, files, or CHMOD values of your files, you will be presented with warnings here to correct those before proceeding. Any issues that are found here will normally require you to correct those before installation can occur, otherwise, follow the onscreen instructions. When you get to the form asking where you would like your IP.Board installed to, you can usually leave the values as they are as the software will do its best to automatically detect the location you are installing. You can find your license key in the client area by clicking your purchase. Your license key activates additional services like the Spam Monitoring Service, Visual Skin Editor, etc. See above screenshot for location. You will need your database information for the install that you obtained in step one. The SQL host can usually remain as "localhost" unless your provider has informed you otherwise. You can generally leave the "SQL Table Prefix" as blank, unless you are sharing the database with third party software, i.e. perhaps WordPress. If unsure about the MySQL Table Type simply leave as MYISAM. When asked for your administrator login information, simply enter the information you would like to login to your community and the Administration Control Panel ("Admin CP or ACP"). It's important you remember this as you will use this information as soon as the installer is finished to login to your community to start the fun process of managing it. Once the installer is finished, follow the link and to log into your newly installed community with the information you set for your administrator account. Once you are logged into the board, you can click on the "Admin CP" link found in the navigation bar to access the Administration Control Panel. - https://www.invisionpower.com/support/guides/_/install-and-getting-started/installing-r18

Hello fellow Flakers, Besides the here & there help I've provided for those that have created a topic seeking assistance, I feel I have not really contributed much to this great community. So I am going to give back by providing some great SEO tools & knowledge from both the White Hat & Black Hat perspective. (Black Hat <3) I have not seen a full blown SEO Help topic here & I see a lot of newcomers to the world of hosting, owning, running a website so I hope this can help. White Hat First off Get yourself a Google Webmaster Account & Bing/Yahoo Webmaster Account also get a Google Analytics Account (its the best imo) & Signing up for Bing/Yahoo ADS gets you a 50$ advertisement credit, even if people dont click a % of impressions are people that might have seen your site. The webmaster accounts allow you to upload sitemap files specifically designed for bots to crawl. They provide very good data on how many search impressions you receive, what is clicked most, as well as getting your website into 3 of the most popular search engines. You can have a sitemap made for free at many sitemap generating websites who abide by the guidelines of google & bing, here is an example site that I use. http://www.web-site-map.com/ You will want to index as many pages as possible & its best to select directories / pages with a lot of content and links. After tracking this info through your webmaster accounts you will get a grip on what people are looking for and what brings you the most traffic. This is key, especially when it comes to Meta Tags and the display of your website in the search engines. With meta tags you can add a title, description & keywords. (All hidden on the face of the website but the Title & Description appear in the search engine) This will show your site in an organized fashion in the search engines & allows you to dictate what appears. <head> <title> Your Website </title> <meta name="description" content="Keyword 1, Keyword 2, Keyword 3, ETC, Seperate using commas"> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"> </head> Next Up is social networking (If you want to advertise what your doing) Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, etc. Posting content on a daily basis, followers or not, is a great way to get recognized and the more sites linking in to your website out there the better. Bots will crawl and Bots will see. Black Hat To get views and ranked fast, this is the way to go but every rose has its thorn, some of these methods will indeed boost your site ranking, but some things might suffer like your bounce rate & time spent on the site. Here are some great websites AlexaBoostup.com Essentially this works as long as people use it. It works off a point system, you are give 500 points to start & each point spent is a view from somebody else, you can gain points by viewing others and every 90 seconds a new site appears. Each site you view you gain 1 point. You can just let this run all night gaining points & then during the day you can allow your points to be spent. This only works if you have the Alexa Toolbar installed but nonetheless it gets your website viewed and I vouch for it as it does work. Linkcollider.com This works in a similar manner to AlexaBoostup in terms of points but does not require the toolbar, it is a more general autosurf application and is not limited to websites. You can use this too boost all your social networks, and instead of people only viewing yourwebsite they can choose to retweet, like a facebook post, subscribe to your youtube, etc. Very Powerful tool. Pingfarm & IndexKings Ping farm allows you to add an unlimited amount of URLS and will ping search engines, enticing the bots to crawl as the ping signals the site has been updated, create a .txt file with the urls you want it to ping and ping it as many times as you would like. Index Kings allows you to add an unlimited amount of URLS and will then add links to at least 15,000 sites per URL. This is very powerful as the more sites your websites link appears on the more it will appear on search engines. The only other tip I have for Black Hat Seo is get this program called Tviewer. Seen here I'm not going to post a download link, you will have to find it on your own. Install Alexa & Quantcasts tags into your browser, Along with google analytics this will give you a well rounded perspective on your sites views. I hoped this is useful! I'm no expert, just a few tips that have worked for me. Less than 48 hours of my full blown SEO integration.
