www.cpica.ca v 4.7.1 After recently upgrading to v 4.7.1, we are getting a warning that the search engine is not returning full search results. There is a message above the search bar that states 'The search index is processing (see image below). Current results may not be complete'. The problem is that the indexing never finishes and seems to be in an inactive state. The status of the index has remained 'currently processing' since the upgrade. There are also some system 'uncaught exceptions' that may help identify the issue (see image below) Can you please have a look for database/index errors on the server? Thanks, Mike

The Quote feature is no longer working after the upgrade. It used to have quote and multi quote options and when you clicked on either, you were taken to your reply. Now there is only one option and when you click on it you go to the first post in the thread. Further there is a huge "Search In" box blocking who's on line and new topics and it won't go away no matter what. website is: bonanzabrand.info

Is there a way to globally turn off the option of following members, other than in the individual preferences of each member? By group? In our use case following other members isn't really suitable.

I know that the forum and the gallery are clearly using the same base platform so that is not where my question is. My plan is to have a gallery AND a forum, but in my forum, I have all kinds of activities, workshops, etc. where participants will want to post their project. I know they will also want to post them in the gallery. Is there a way to have the image they post in the forum automatically added to their gallery? That would make things faster for them and prevent doubling on the uploaded files. Or maybe an add-on?

Hi, I have given an existing user group permission to edit records in a database. However, they cannot see the edit function; when I tried to go to the edit page directly, I got the following message and error code. "Oops! No permission" Error code: 2T252/D I have created a new user group and assigned that to the test account, and I still do not have the option to edit a record. Is there a group setting that I have forgotten that must be enabled, or is this a genuine bug ?

I'm setting up a new site and before I import members I would like to delete the 'all activity' stream to get a fresh start, is this possible? I cannot find information on doing this on cloud hosted. Thanks

I am not sure if this is a new button, but I have just started having problem with it and spammers. So my first question is can I disable it? My email account associated with our forums was just suspended because it seems spammers are using this button and form, then don't complete the registration so an email is triggered saying 'Did you forget to submit your content?'. Hundreds this morning. I would rather forum users create an account before trying to post so I would like to disable this button.

My editor has started noticing a strange problem that did not exist previously. For each of the last few weeks, whenever he publishes an article, it does not appear at the top of the list of articles, instead, it is at the end. This happens regardless of whether he is writing the article directly into the CMS or is copying or promoting from a topic Through a process of elimination, we have determined that ALL affected articles have the same issue. The entry for each article in the DB has a record_saved field with the date but the field in the database called record_publish_date always shows 0. If I manually copy the record saved date to the other field it displays as…

Hello there. I've been extremely lax regarding my forum members. For years, I didn't pay any attention to new members. But recently I have started paying more attention, and realised I have hundreds of spam profiles, 99% of them from India. I'd been puzzled for ages about why so many people from India signed up but never posted anything. But because anything they posted would have to be moderated by me, I wasn't concerned. Foolishly I'd never noticed all these accounts had blatant spam links and adverts for all sorts of rubbish including massage parlours in Vietnam in the About Me section. So now I'm manually going through each of my 6,500 members and flagging t…

Has anyone seen this? It started happening since we upgraded to 4.7.1. The strange thing is you reload several times the same exact page and goes away.

Hi Invision Support I accidentally began a local installation at http://192.168.1.16/ips_6b004/ which was the default option on the installation screen instead of localhost. When I realised that it was going into the ips_6b004 folder, I removed that part from the URL, but hadn't noticed that it wasn't localhost and I then got the test URL license error message. Note that this is after I'd already clicked next to start the installation, which is likely what locked it. However, I'd used a bad MySQL password, so the installation never actually proceeded. Now, when I try to change it in the client area by clicking Change Licensed URL, I see the error below, so can't chan…

Hi. I ran a rebuild of my 'existing content' to force all links to open in a new window. I'm now getting an error every fifteen or so minutes. Not sure if it's IPS, third party or server. Checking all around. Here is the error message sent from my cPanel. Thoughts? Thanks.

Is it possible to import data into a database from a spreadsheet or a CSV? I have a few thousand records that i would like to be able to import into an existing database. Anyone knows how this can be done nativly, or can anyone write a scrip that does direct import into the database. I'll pay for the time. Thank you, Steve

Hello there. This has puzzled me for quite some time. One of the fields on my forums is - Enter numbers 1-9 Please enter 123456789 in the field below Apart from the fact that the field to enter numbers in is actually above 🙂 I can't think why it is there, especially as none of my members have filled it in. I can't even see any reference to it in a search on these forums.

Ive turned every permission on for categories, cleared cache, everything I can think of. Tyia to anyone that knows whats going on cuz I don't have the slightest Idea.

I am trying the Gallery, and integrating it to WP to fit into a big site of mine. I am still on a test site at this point, but I would like to emulate my existing site. Although WP does not have the best search feature, my visitors will be unlikely to search the Gallery, but instead, will want to search the tutorials and blog, which are NOT in the Gallery. How can I remove the Search in the navigation of Invision? It would really not be pertinent to my site (and confusing with the search for the rest of the site). Thank you.
