Hi everyone As of yesterday, my forum is not accessible anymore (core4d.com) and error 500 is thrown. No changes or updates were made. My host checked the server and insists that the issue is in IPS. I can login into admin panel and found these repeating errors in system logs: UnexpectedValueException: (0) #0 /home/c4dcafecom/public_html/ipb/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(173): IPS\_Theme->getTemplate('global', 'core') #1 /home/c4dcafecom/public_html/ipb/system/Dispatcher/Standard.php(113): IPS\_Dispatcher->finish() #2 /home/c4dcafecom/public_html/ipb/system/Dispatcher/Front.php(558): IPS\Dispatcher\_Standard->finish() #3 /home/c4dcafe…

Got a message from our hosting provider that the ibf_core_member_history is a very large table at this moment. They ask us to reduce this table. Is there a way/setting that I can do that safely? Is it just history for what any member did on the database?

Hi There, When I try to move a specific topic from Forum A to Forum B, I see a modal opening to choose at which Forum I should sent the topic, and underneath that I also get a checkbox called "Leave Link to new location" if I am checking the box and try to move the topic from Forum A to Forum B. I get an error. Check the image below. Not seeing any option in the backend to get it fixed or turning it off

I'm adding some custom fields to a comment form in an application, however, adding them is a nightmare, unlike the normal form for the item itself. I had to alter the commentTemplate form template to place the fields in the correct position above the editor. Without the template edit, the fields were added at the bottom inline with the submit button, and the whole look was messed up. There is no easy way to only overload the comment template. I had to copy both commentContainer and comment to use my custom comment template. The \IPS\Content\Controller::_edit() class that loads the edit code/form doesn't use \IPS\Content\Item::commentFormElements() to l…

I haven't made any changes to my site recently

Hi, I recently had to restore a site and noticed some log entries referencing applications/core/interface/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/ related to malicious activity and I see that was reported as a possible vulnerability. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-30162 There was also another report for a SQL injection. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-30163 Were these addressed in 4.7.17? Thanks

I have an SSO set up and created another Admin which is tied to the Admin Group. When that user logs in they have access to the blocks via the front end but not the ACP. I have a feeling that the account might be blocked but not sure where to check these logs to unblock them.

Hello, We recently noticed the following, whenever an “editor” field in your profile is filled in it doesn’t appear on your profile page, I also noticed the same happening with my profile on Invision itself (can’t 100% confirm as I don’t know the settings), all fields but the "About me" are showing. We tried disabling all customisation, but to no avail. Is this a bug, or working as intended? Thanks in advance! Kind Regards.

Hi Folks I'm trying to upgrade from IPB v4.4.6, but I am having some headaches that seem to have me stuck in a catch-22 situation. I go to the "AdminCP > Support > Something isn't working > Upgrade, I then run into this; You are running PHP version 7.4.33. You need PHP 8.0.0 or above. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for an upgrade. However, this is where the problems begin. If I switch out the PHP version to v8.1, the entire site dies, with a white screen of death. Error log shows this: (I've starred out the cPanel username) [11-Jul-2024 04:23:23 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to und…

Hello, After setting up Sendgrid using the default plugin, emails work fine except for account verification and password reset links. When users try to click on the link, they are redirected to my website and encounter the issue "Site is not found." The link sent has a weird subdomain: http://url8906.example.com/ls/click The message in Error Logs: Header can not be one of the reserved keys. Refer to the documentation link. Send Grid's documentation says: The issue does not occur when using SMTP email or PHP self-hosted services. Any help would be appreciated!

I need to move a user to a new subscription. When I tried to add him, I received the message that the user already had a subscription. Deleted and canceled the subscription for the user and waited until the expiration. The subscription still shows he is a member and there is nothing under purchases. User still shows in the subscription, but without the "view purchase" option. How do I get this person the proper subscription?

I suspect there may be some computation error with cache lifetime of rss imports. I created a page with some of these widgets and set their cache lifetime to a minimum of 60 minutes (some of them have 720 minutes, 1440 minutes, etc) and none of them have below 60 minutes. After loading the page once, the widgets are supposed to cache their data without making calls to the rss services for subsequent page loads for at least 60 minutes. But that never happens as the page seem to take the same amount of real time to load after just a few minutes from last page load. A couple of widgets may not matter much even if they re-fetch data but with multiple widgets, this is a b…

I heard from members that the password reset link in their email redirects them to the home page with no opportunity to update their password. I've tested and can confirm this behaviour. There are no entries in the error logs. Thanks.

This topic: After some back and forth about permissions and visibility, it has been identified that a member who has not joined a club can see a club event on the board, both in the club and on the main event page. if this premise is true: Then there is a bug because this should not be happening.

This is a very simple fix, but since it is in the JS I'm unable to do it. Within the root_framework.js is this code: <a href='#' data-action='toggleQuote'> Can you please update it with this code: <a href='#' data-action='toggleQuote' aria-label='Toggle Quote'> I ask because my forum users quote very often, and the toggle throws an error each time...some of my forum pages have 5-10 quotes per page. Example of the issue:

Tags added to topics are not used properly. This is just one example (there may be other such instances). https://www.telugus.com/search/?q=robot THE WILD ROBOT | Official Trailer -> in the results but no tag in the results (other items in the list have tags) Click on the above topic and you'll see "hollywood" tag assigned to the topic.

Is there a way - perhaps an automated way - to find members with who are are associated with the same IP addresses. Would like to use an investigative tool to help locate members are registering with multiple accounts using different names. I can see mention of this years ago - and suggesting it would be an easy tool to be added in future updates. Has it been done? Thanks! Bob

Hey all. I upgraded to the Creator package, and setup my custom domain. For awhile, the icons on my main forum page were broken but I had to fiddle around with removing my custom theme and re-applying it. I did not change the theme for the admin dashboard, though, and the icons are still broken. I've attached a screenshot. To me, it seems like some kind of server cache issue, but I am having trouble finding a way to clear any of that (if I even can). Any suggestions?

Hello I have inherited an old hosted version of Invision - 4.2.6 I'm trying to upgrade to the latest version. The problem I have is that the site/upgrade tool won't run on a version of php higher than 7.4, but the upgrade process won't run on a version lower than 8.0. It's trivial for me to switch versions of PHP but I can't proceed on the upgrade tool with either version Is my only option to start with a fresh copy of the files and try and migrate content?
