Invision Community 4.6 brings a brand new achievements system which overhauls the ranks system along with adding the ability to earn points which translates into a higher rank via rules. As part of the clean-up, we removed the custom member title from the author section of the post as there's a limit to how much information we can show comfortably! Of course, some communities used custom member titles and wish to continue using them. Fortunately it's easy enough to get them back. Step 1: Log into the ACP and navigate to Members > Profiles > Profile Fields Step 2: You will see a group called "Retained", inside is a new custom field called "Member Titl…

I'm trying to customize font sizes a bit, as I generally find them a bit too small for my liking. To change the font size for the text inside the forum posts, I went into my theme > Font Scale, and changed "Medium Text". However that also changed the size of the last post titles listed next to each forum on the home page. Is there a way to avoid that? I also would like to change the default font size for a <p> element in Pages, and I'm not sure which one to change? Thanks!

Is there a way to automatically close topics based on dates? I don't want to archive them because I want the search engines to still be able to index them. It's become a huge knowledge-base.

I have an ongoing intermittent issue which seems to happen at around the same time each week. My community fails to load, producing a generic 'Error 500' page. When this happens, checking with the ips4.php update checker works and returns a clean bill of health. The error happens on the standard theme and when logging into the ACP, as well as my modified theme. The hosts have managed to fix the issue and have told me they have cleared the server cache and (once) told me it was a permissions issue. They can find nothing further amiss on their side, despite repeated support calls, each time it happens. The system log produces the following entry when the issue occ…

I have three sites, I updated them all to php 8.0. I adjusted their cron jobs. 2 of the 3 sites are fine, one is saying Caching is not working correctly. Review your caching method configuration and adjust the settings as needed. When I click the link it brings me to the datastore option. Previously I had Redis, but I am not using it anymore. I downloaded the new constants, but the error is still displayed. I can send a screenshot of the cron in an email, I'd rather not post it here.

How can I create sub forums in clubs. This would be the ideal structure for me. If it's not possible currently, what do I need to do to make it a reality immediately? I mean, would it be possible to hire someone to make it so I can have sub forums in clubs? Thanks

When I post a link to another topic in a post on my own forum, it creates a nice embed box visual, except that for one specific topic it no longer does, it just pastes the link as text (it used to work fine though).

How exactly does referrals work? It seems to be incredibly random whether or not it gives you credit for the referral. Do you have to be registered first, or can you click a referral link, register, purchase and get credit? Can you add a referral code to the end of any url?
