Invision Power Board

**Unforseen** · April 24th, 2004, 6:01 PM

Well I have a few questions. I recently installed Invision Power Board on my website. Everything works great and it was VERY simple to install. I'm trying to find some good skins but I can't seem to find any sites for it. If anyone could help me out i'd appreciate it. Also, I realize that IPB is charging for forums now. Would it be possible to add VBulletin as part of Scripta since it charges too.

I think that vBulletin charging would be a reason NOT to include it in Scripta.

Indeed.
vBulletin is not free and thus it would be very hard to implement it.
And it aint exactly cheap either.

InvisionBoard costs money too.

I would expect that it will be removed then, or maybe the old version can still function.

Yes I also remembered something like that.
Queer.

Probably miakeru is right though. Could be an old version (Or a stripped down version with less features or no support or something)

The free version of IB doesnt include support. The paid version includes a built in chat room. The free version is basically the same as the paid version. They are about to realease a 2.0 version of it now, you can download the beta version of it now on their website.

I've been having trouble installing skins to my IPB board. I follow the directions and add the .tar file to the archive_in directory and I keep getting this error when I try and import it: Cannot write to the /home/remacla/public_html/forum/style_images directory, please set sufficient CHMOD permissions to allow this. IBF cannot do this for you.

Any help would be appreciated.

Change the permissions of it in cPanel. Try 755.
