Hello, 🙂 My community is down after I installed the mediatag application by mistake : I was uninstalling application I saw inactive in the ACP (such as subscriptions, chat) and mistakenly clicked on the button to install mediatag... Now I get this message : I have ssh access. How can I delete this application and have my community back online ? Thank you. 🙂

I keep getting emails saying regards "PHP 7.4 will soon be reaching end of life and will no longer receive any security updates.Our November release will introduce a new minimum requirement of PHP 8.0. You are seeing this message because you are currently using PHP 7.4. Please upgrade as soon as possible." Yet my hosting server is already running PHP 8.1 - I'm aware that I have some addons that aren't but if I was on PHP8.1 then I should not be getting this email at all XD

I accidentally set a future published date on an old topic, and it completely moved the first post (the topic) to the most recent reply. How can this be solved?

Hi all! I'm hoping to get some help here. After going through the Invision upgrade yesterday, all of the sudden today all forum traffic plunged by 90% (from 1,049 unique visitors the day before to only 104 today — see screenshot at bottom). Any idea why? Have other IPS folks been having any issues with traffic dropping after the upgrade? P.S. Here’s a screenshot from analytics:

Self-hosted (on Dreamhost, if it matters.) After putting it off for months, maybe years, finally went all in and updated my server to PHP8 then the forum from 4.4 to 4.7. Not good. Am following the Manual instructions because auto didn't work. I've done the first paragraph. But I can't do the second. When I go to admin/upgrade I just get this: Following some advice I found on another thread I uploaded the ips4.php file to run the check, and it says I'm fine: The error log only seems to show my three or four attempts to do the auto update. Nothing else. Any help would be SO appreciated. Thank you. I also tried modifyi…

Can't seem to get rid of this problem. Have talked to host support, first support person said need to create php.ini file and placed this in the public_html folder disable_functions = "exec,system,passthru,pcntl_exec,popen,proc_open,shell_exec" did not work, called host back, got different support person and they stated "oh, we don't allow php.ini on a shared server" so need to make a .users.ini file with the same code as above. That did not work either still got notification in the acp. I then placed the .user.ini in the forum folder did not work, placed the php.ini in the forum folder did not work. It is my understanding that the disable_functions does not work in…

Sir, Email sending from server is not working. I had discussed this with the namecheap team, they told me that this is because of a third party email service provider. There is a failed mail delivery message as shown below. Also, in the email setting option, there is a red flag in advanced settings as shown below. Please let me know what needs to be done for mail sending to work smoothly. Waiting for your reply. Regards,

Is this possible? We offer a safe space for young people aged 13-25 and no matter how clear we make it, we're still getting regular adults join to talk about their divorce. Is there a quick and easy way to prohibit people outside of a set age range from registering?

Hello, 🙂 Some members have lost access to at least one forum on my board (it's a forum you can access with at least 5 posts in the other forums) : they get a HTTP ERROR 500. As for me I don't have access problems to this forum. I upgraded yesterday to PHP 8. Is it possible it has something to do with it ? How should I proceed to fix this ? Thank you. 🙂

I'm trying to make use of the Data Layer, but it's quite confusing this whole new GA4 & GTM as I'm still using the old universal analytics. From what I can tell, GTM is the best option? If yes, how exactly can it be set up to use GA4 & Data Layer together?

I've just upgraded both my test and production sites to 4.7.2.1. All is well, but I thought I'd point out that (in my case at least) the Compatibility Scanner isn't working properly on my test install - it constantly throws the following error: There was an error loading the hook scanner results. This seems strange to me, since a day ago I reinstalled all of my apps and plugins on the test site which I have on my production site (and even in the same order), minus a couple of disabled or no-longer-available plugins etc. There are no problems whatsoever on my production site, which correctly lists apps which have been disabled as incompatible. This isn't a huge…

Hello. I am using a C# application I am creating, I am logged in via OAuth2. I am using the endpoint "/downloads/files/{id}/download" (Yes, it is enabled in the scope) This all works, it sends me a link to the file, the name and size, exactly it should. But the issue is there is no API to tell the site "Hey, I downloaded this" and not only that, but the link returned is https://XXXXXXXXXX.com/files/modupload/monthly_2022_09/1435978003_MyCustomPi-ChoENB_7z.ff0e2dd34912345d81fba665432e6208 which the link works. So, problem 1 is that file should be an archive, but instead it is... not... and second this does not have a key. Very unsecure. If this is intercepted, anyo…

A new member just sent me this from an email they received. I have logins set to email address (not display name) but the email says "not your email address". Where does this get changed or is this a bug? Welcome to XXX Forum and thank you for joining. You can now sign in with your username (not your email address) and the password you chose when signing up. Thanks

Hi team, The Nexus VAT validation for EU business addresses seems to not work any longer. In \Tax::validateVAT at line 382: if ( $xml->read() ) { if ( $xml->name === 'soap:Envelope' and $xml->read() ) { if ( $xml->name === 'soap:Body' and $xml->read() ) { if ( $xml->name === 'checkVatResponse' ) { $xml->read(); do { $responseArray[ $xml->name ] = $xml->readString(); } while ( $xml->next() and $xml->nodeType !== $xml::END_ELEMENT ); } } } } The response from the EU service seems to have changed; the XML looks something like that: <env…
