In general, this works for 3.2.x, 3.3.x and 3.4.x.

it's there How to Remove "License Key Missing" Warning in ACP New Tutorial 2015, Greetings

[ Tutorial ] How to change the default mobile skin in 3.4.x

10:00 AM IP.Board Tutorials

How to change the default mobile skin in 3.4.x. If you have installed a new mobile skin on IP.Board and want to make it the default version, as well as updating User agents you also must change the skin key in Admin CP. That option is actually hidden and you have to edit a little to get it to show up.

This is the simplest way I know to change the default forum skin on IP.Board. The skin key is hidden and there's no option to change it from the Admin CP.

FTP into your forum and navigate to admin/applications/core/skin_cp and download the file cp_skin_templates.php

Open this file in an editor (I use Notepad++) and scroll down to line 1401

if ( $skinSet['set_key'] != 'mobile' && $skinSet['set_key'] != 'default' )

change this to

if ( $skinSet['set_key'] != 'nmobile' && $skinSet['set_key'] != 'default' )

Save and close the file and transfer is back via ftp to where you downloaded it from.

In AdminCP select Look & Feel/Manage skins and templates and edit settings for IP.Board Mobile, there should now be a drop down box which says Skin key - mobile, change this to mobile_123 or anything that isn't "mobile" and save the settings. Now go to your new mobile skin and edit settings, in the drop down for Skin Key change this to mobile and save your settings.

How to Easily Smooth Board Width Changer On IP. Board

10:00 AM IP.Board Tutorials

How to Easily Smooth Board Width Changer On IP. Board. I was originally going to make a hook for this, and I got quite far with it too. But, I ran into a few problems and just couldn't get it to work. So I'm making a tutorial for it.

Please note: This was done on the default IPB skin. This may be different for you, depending on the skin you're using.

Go to your ACP
Look & Feel
Your Skin
globalTemplate.

Find this:

        {parse template="includeJS" group="global" params="$jsModules"}
        {parse template="includeFeeds" group="global" params="$documentHeadItems"}
        {parse template="includeRTL" group="global" params=""}        
        {parse template="includeVars" group="global" params="$header_items"}

Add this code above it:

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src="{style_images_url}/boardwidth.js"></script>

Next go to :

Go to your ACP
Look & Feel
Your Skin
CSS
ipb_styles.css.

Find this:

#content, .main_width {
    margin: 0 auto;
    /* Uncomment for fixed */
    /*width: 980px;*/
    /* Fluid */
    width: 87% !important;
       min-width: 960px;
}

Change it to this:

#content, .main_width {
    margin: 0 auto;
    /* Uncomment for fixed */
    width: 980px;
    /* Fluid */
    /*width: 87% !important;*/
       min-width: 960px;
}

And save.

Next Go back to your globalTemplate and find this:

<if test="showhomeurl:|:$this->settings['home_url'] AND $this->settings['home_name']">

Add this code above it:

<li class='right widthSwitch'><a href="#">Change Width</a></li>

Note: You can place a link for this anywhere you want, I'm just using this location for tutorial purposes.

Next Now, you're going to code and paste the following code into Notepad or anything you prefer, and save it as "boardwidth.js".

jQuery.cookie=function(name,value,options){if(typeof value!="undefined"){options=options||{};if(value===null){value="";options.expires=-1;}var expires="";if(options.expires&&(typeof options.expires=="number"||options.expires.toUTCString)){var date;if(typeof options.expires=="number"){date=new Date();date.setTime(date.getTime()+(options.expires*24*60*60*1000));}else{date=options.expires;}expires="; expires="+date.toUTCString();}var path=options.path?"; path="+(options.path):"";var domain=options.domain?"; domain="+(options.domain):"";var secure=options.secure?"; secure":"";document.cookie=[name,"=",encodeURIComponent(value),expires,path,domain,secure].join("");}else{var cookieValue=null;if(document.cookie&&document.cookie!=""){var cookies=document.cookie.split(";");for(var i=0;i<cookies.length;i++){var cookie=jQuery.trim(cookies[i]);if(cookie.substring(0,name.length+1)==(name+"=")){cookieValue=decodeURIComponent(cookie.substring(name.length+1));break;}}}return cookieValue;}};

jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($){

    // Board Width Changer
    var widthElem = '#content, .main_width'
    var    elemProp = $(widthElem).css('width')
    var    fluidWidth = 87;

    if( $.cookie('boardWidth') !== null ) {
        if ( $.cookie('boardWidth') == 'fluid' ) {
            $(widthElem).css('width', fluidWidth + '%');
         }
        if ( $.cookie('boardWidth') == 'fixed' ) {
            $(widthElem).css('width', elemProp);
        }
    }

    $('.widthSwitch a').click(function() {
        if ( $(widthElem).css('width') == elemProp ) {
            $(widthElem).animate({ width: fluidWidth + '%' });
            $.cookie('boardWidth', 'fluid');
        } else {
            $(widthElem).animate({ width: elemProp });
            $.cookie('boardWidth', 'fixed');
        }
        return false;
    });
});

Then go to

your FTP
public_html
public
style_images
(Your skin name)
Then upload the boardwidth.js file in that folder.

And you're done!

Comment it out by adding a  to the end (do not remove the code)

Part two, add 'post reply' to the end of the page.

Immediately after the code you have removed, you'll see this line:

<!-- Close topic -->

Add the following code just above that 'close topic' line but after the code you commented out:

<ul class="topic_buttons">
        <if test="closedButton:|:$displayData['reply_button']['image'] == 'locked'">
            <li class="important">
                <if test="pollOnly:|:isset($displayData['poll_data']['poll']['poll_only']) && $displayData['poll_data']['poll']['poll_only']">
                    <if test="closedButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                        <a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" accesskey="r">{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_poll_only_reply']}</a>
                    <else>
                        <span>{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_poll_only']}</span>
                    </else></if>
                <else>
                    <if test="closedButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                        <a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" accesskey="r">{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_locked_reply']}</a>
                    <else>
                        <span>{parse replacement="lock_icon"} {$this->lang->words['top_locked']}</span>
                    </else></if>
                </else></if>
            </li>
        <else>
            <if test="replyButton:|:$displayData['reply_button']['image']">
                <if test="replyButtonLink:|:$displayData['reply_button']['url']">
                    <li><a href="%7B$displayData[" reply_button']['url']}'="" title="{$this->lang->words[" topic_add_reply']}'="" accesskey="r">{$this->lang->words['topic_add_reply']}</a></li>
                <else>
                    <li class="disabled"><span>{$this->lang->words['top_cannot_reply']}</span></li>
                </else></if>
            </if>
        </else></if>
