Hi there, I've just tried to create a new category in Downloads, the first new one I've added in a couple of years. I've toggled a couple of the settings from their defaults in doing so.

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

I tried to port over my forum and finally got it working but the "admin" folder is broken. I get this error message when I go to the admin folder: An error occurred (500 Error) We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now. CANNOT_MAKE_DIR You can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later. Try again Any thoughts of how to fix this?

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).

When uploading animated GIF avatars, the following error appears in a dialog box: This isn't specific to one avatar, but seems to be happening across the board (though only with GIFs). The system log doesn't have any more details except that it's an "InvalidArgumentException::400". I'm running PHP 7.4 and IPS 4.5.4.2, if that helps. Hoping someone might have seen this before and know what's going on?

I'm on the support list of a CIC client, the Client Area support button clearly states support request must come from my email address, your system bounces it telling me "lol no. You are self-hosted"" If you see these bounces internally just grab it and go, otherwise point me in a direction. The actual site problem should be an easy fix (CMS block will not open for editing - clearly exists and is working - I'd poke it with the SQL tool but... you know...)

Hi, I have tried different photos and everything but sometimes the banner disappears and it is just a plain grey background. I am not sure if this is a common problem but I just think it's odd. Either the photo is gone when I go in the ACP or it still shows the preview but says 0 B.

I searched for my recent post "The 20" and used quotes, and it returns nothing, uses the 20, no quotes. It returns one oddly wrong result. However, if I search for the20 quotes or no quotes, it returns the correct results. Are there settings that need to change for this to work correctly? Or can you please explain how we search in the forum properly? Screenshot below is when I search The 20 with quotes: Search The 20 without quotes: Search The20 and it shows the correct results: - Allan

Greetings. I recently joined the community in the hope of getting some help. My apologies in advance for my ignorance, I don't understand much about forums, plugins etc. The community/forum I come from is called Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Maker, and uses the board system provided by Invision https://www.cardmaker.net/yugioh/ What I'd like to ask is about plugins (if that's the right term for what I'm going to ask). During a discussion in one of our threads, I learned that there are a number of features that can be implemented in the site, but they seem to be unavailable inherently in the configuration, since the admin of the forum mentioned that they'd be willing …
