If you are having issues with your IPDL, you have found the right place. This guide will tell you how to troubleshoot your IPDL (IP Dynamic Lite) settings.


First things first: FAQ's:

I cannot get my IPDL working, why?

The main reason (and the most common reason for this) is likely (but not limited to) your Forums to export articles from...

What this does is "fills" the middle of the IPDL page with partial posts that you correspond this with.

But how can I do this?

Recomended forums to do this with is your News, Annoucements, and Rules forums. Click on those forums, go to your address bar, and find the number at the forum ID at the end. For example: http://name.#.forumer.com/index.php?showforum=2

See the BOLD RED 2? That is what you want. Go to your ACP > System Settings, click on IPDynamic Lite Set-up. Find Forums to export articles from... Separate forum ids with a comma for more than one, and put in 2. If you want to do the same for the other forums, MAKE SURE YOU ADD IN COMMAS AND DO NOT LEAVE A SPACE. Other wise you will have some sort of error page.

My banner won't show up, because?

You'll need to go to your HTML for this, First use www.filehive.com to upload your banner and copy the direct link. Then go to your ACP, click on HTML Templates, Manage HTML. Find IP Dynamic Lite, click on Expand to Edit, scroll down and click on the very first one - MAIN TEMPLATE. Click on Edit Single. Find this code: and replace the code in red with the direct link to your banner.

Misc. Items:

Under Show Site Navigation Menu, I put the links and it just goes back to my forum's Index, why?

Here's are exaples:

If you want to add in-forum stuff (like mabe the moderating team, the news forums, etc), you'll need to add this:

For the Moderating Team: {board_url}act=Stats&CODE=leaders [Contact Staff] - That's what it should look like. Do not add http://yourforum.#.forumer.com in there because {board_url} converted to your board URL. The words in bracets - [ ] - is what will show as the link.

If you want to add off-site links (such as your blog, profile, favorite website, etc) You will have to add the entire URL. For instance: www.myspace.com [My Profile]
