Hello, I had a thread on my forum with hundreds of replies within it and out of nowhere it disappeared. I cant neither find it on the DB nor within the content search. After rescanning the post count, the post amount also went down. What could cause such issue?

Hello, It has been some time since I last updated my website but today my site just shows this: Fatal error: Declaration of IPS\steam_hook_steamid::buildHelper($value = null, $customValidationCode = null) must be compatible with IPS\_CustomField::buildHelper($value = null, $customValidationCode = null, ?IPS\Content $content = null) in /homepages/22/d811778429/htdocs/public_html/init.php(893) : eval()'d code on line 124 It was working fine last night so not really sure of the issue lol Any help would be great! On a side note, I just renewed to get some help but it seems I cannot open a ticket anymore? Many thanks, Madiakz

I have a question. Why is the advertising banner on mobile devices duplicated? Also on the computer with the reduced window. This is what happens with all web browsers. The size of the banner and the extension (jpg. Png) does not matter. Thanks for the answers. Regards Paul

Had a page that took a couple hours to perfect. I tried to move a block, got the error above, and lost all data in that block! Is there a way to get it back? Edit: Would this happen if two administrators had the block open in edit mode?

A bit ashamed to say I'm not familiar with the logs in IPB, but noticed that the "uncaught_exception.php" log is 29G in size. Can I reduce it's size? In Admin > System Logs I edited the prune settings to 10 days from 30 days. Should I just wait for a background process to reduce the size of this log? Can I safely use the linux truncate command to reduce this log (worried that it has a .php extension and may need to be handled by the system)? Thanks for any help you can provide!

I recently registered a new member to our community portal through the AdminCP. I entered their name, email address and assigned them to a Group that has access to all pages in our community portal. However, after the member created their account (from a link in the email they were sent) and logged in, they received the message below. This member is set up exactly like other members to the portal who are not having this issue. We also noticed that the browser tab title displays "Sorry, you do not have permission for that!" Also, the member can see all of our community menu and submenu tabs and is able to click on them, but gets the message below each time. And, whe…

Hiya, After a long hiatus of development with Invision power (only do it for my website not for public dev) I have come into an issue where when I modify template files for admin or front end (the .phtml files within the dev folder) they don't seem to automatically update on the dev site I have. I have attempted to clear the system cache but it seems that the template files I modify don't update in the database. I haven't attempted to delete the entries in the DB for the templates as I'd say that will cause more headaches. Can I ask what I'm doing wrong, or is there a link to a doc that explains how this works so I can refresh my memory. For the life of me I ca…

Hello One of my members alerted me to a bug by which any user can bypass the 2fa check. To replicate: Sign into a new account that has not yet set up 2fa, when prompted to set it up simply edit the URL so that it only contains https://<domain>/settings rather than the 2fa generated url (https://<domain>/settings/?do=initialMfa&ref=<ref>) By doing this, a user can enter the member control panel and has the ability to change username, password, email etc - completely negating the purpose of 2fa! If needed I have a video demo I can DM to a dev/admin but don't really want to post it publicly. Thanks

After moving my Invision installation from bzpower.com/board to bzpower.com members are not able to login via Google. I regenerated a new Client ID and Client Secret but am still getting an error: I'm guessing this might be because the ACP states "The Redirect URI to use is http://www.bzpower.com/oauth/callback/" but Google requires you to use HTTPS. I have a valid SSL certificate for my site - how do I get that updated, assuming that's the issue? Thanks!

Hello, There are members whose invoices have expired. There is no way for them to pay those invoices or renew the product. Am I doing something wrong? Is there an option to let him resume his membership by paying the expired invoice? Right now, the member: Cannot renew or pay the expired invoice He cannot choose the same product and add it to the cart, it's NOT available 😞 How is that so? I mean, the product expires and then he cannot pay for it again or even choose the same product and add it to the cart? Am I doing something wrong? Any setting that i missed or is this a known bug? I signed in as the member, I went to the "manage pur…

We have a membership product. The registration process includes optional purchase of a membership. It's also possible to go to the store and purchase a membership without registering, which causes problems. I'd like to hide the product in the store so customers would have to go through registration (or already be registered) to purchase membership. On Store Settings, option to Show in store?, notes are Even if hidden from the store, it will still show on the registration form if that setting is enabled, users who have previously purchased will still be able to renew, and users who have purchased other products in the same group may still be able to upgrade/downgra…

Two really annoying issues that my customers are experiencing right now is: 1) How do I update everyone's invoices, right now only way is to hope that the old customer makes a support ticket for me to then manually update it. New price has been 60 instead of 120 for months. 2) No option to buy when the user was a subscriber previously? When the user clicks view purchase, this is all they see? No option to buy, renew nothing.

Hello all. I am just wondering if anyone else has had the issue whereby if you get a notification of a new post in a topic, that when you click on it, it does not always take you to that new post. I have had a few members note this issue and will usually have to scroll up or down to get to the right place. We of course have taken note of the notification settings as displayed below. Anyone else had any problems ? Thanks very much, P
