Hi there, We are doing some tuning of our MariaDB and we noticed that the DB engine used by IPB is currently set to MYISAM. We'd like to update this to INNODB but we don't want to do it without making sure we won't break our IPB or any support requirements. Can you let us know if there are any special requirements to updating all our IPB tables to INNODB? Or whether we are simply OK to do it using the following standard command for each table: ALTER TABLE <databasename>.<tablename> engine=InnoDB; Many thanks!

Hey guys, I am currently running into an error with caching. I've done all the steps provided to me by our web host, but this error has been up for nearly a week. Also I am having issues with customer support. I purchased Invision in Feburary and it was stated that I would have email support until August 21, 2022. This is obviously not the case since I am post my issues here. Help?

I uploaded all the files manually on the latest version, however it's throwing 500 internal server error in the /admin/upgrade process. The admin panel works fine, but the site is offline and says update in progress. How can I fix this? System + error logs does not indicate anything is wrong. Happens at admin/upgrade/?autologin=1&sessionCheck=1 Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/', expecting '{' in /home/nginx/domains/domain.io/public/system/Application/Application.php(694) : eval()'d code on line 1 Fatal error: Exception thrown without a stack frame in Unknown on line 0

Hi, I recently purchased the plugin "Change Group After Ban Member". Now I want to retrospectively move all banned members to the Group "Banned". I do the following: Members - Search Cogwheel > Leave everything default > Click "Search"> Select "Banned" Filter>"Move members found">Select Group>OK It then says something like "members queued for moving" - but nothing ever happens. I waited for several days now... Can't find any errors in logs. What can I do?

Hello, The upgrade to the cloud button recently added on ACP prevents the global search from working on mobile devices, even using desktop mode browsing. Before, I could see the search box and use the global search to find a user, a forum, anything. Now that search field is gone, and when the search icon is clicked, it won't work 😞 I believe it's before now the Upgrade to Cloud is using up the upper navigation area and is preventing the search field from appearing. However, the search icon will not work either. Thanks

I was testing a third-party app and the developer requested I place the following in my constants.php file to help debug an issue. <?php \define('DEBUG_LOG','TRUE'); Upon doing so I noticed a bunch of system log entries pop up. Please note the app is not currently installed and I disabled all installed apps and plugins to eliminate their being the root cause of error messages. Upon seeing the error messages continue I reenabled the apps again. I copied the constants.php file to the other three sites and they are all exhibiting similar types of errors. Ater reading through some of the error logs I am seeing a variety of different issues being noted. Heres…

We're noticing a trend where a spam message put on our only open public forum seems to being deleted properly per the spam filters and blocks I've got set in admin. However, there are users getting the message forwarded to them anyway if they are subscribed and following the forum. It seems like the follow activity is happening before the spam scrub routine. Can this be reversed?

Hi, Here in the IPS client area where my licences are listed, the dates all show in US format but in my Customer Details my address is set correctly in UK. I can't seem to find anywhere to change it. Is it a bug? Didn't there used to be a account setting setting somewhere for this, timezone maybe?

I use default theme with only slightly changed colors via Easy Mode. If Social Link Position in is set to Footer, then I can see the social profiles icons in mobile view. If Social Link Position in is set to Header Background, then I cannot see the social profiles icons in mobile view. Nowhere. Question: Where the social profiles icons are supposed to be in mobile view, if default theme is set to Header Background?

Hello all, We have our community forum built out on wordpress. We use MemberHub and Invision. We have clients who answer forum questions in certain sub forums. One of them is using an ipad and safari. When someone posts a question, the client is sent an email with a link to that sub-forum. When they click the link, they should be redirected to the post but instead are getting access denied. I checked all of their access on the wordpress side and they are listed as having access according to their "Role". What's happening is they have to log out and back in, they then try the link again and it does not work. We tried their logins on our end and they worked fine in…
