The moderator member group on my system has the permission to view Display Name History, yet, for some reason, when they attempt to they receive a permission denied error. This is the only Group, other than Administrators that has the permission and it is working fine for Administrators. Can someone assist/advise? Thank you

We recently changed our PayPal account and I am trying to add it back in to my IPS account stored payment methods. When I go there it only has an option to pay by credit card. How can I add our new PayPal account so my IPS subscription will auto renew from it? NOTE - this is not the link from my site to PayPal to buy items on my site - we have that working fine with the new account. This is so my IPS subscription automatically renews through PayPal.

Hi I get this error when upgrading from version 4.5.4.2 to 4.6.12.1. First I tried the automatic update in ACP, then I downloaded all the files again and uploaded overwriting the existing ones. The error remains the same. The site is not reachable now, I get the error attached. I've checked the file permissions and they don't seem to have any problems. For example the first error refers to the file "/applications/nexus/Application.php" The folders and the file in question all have the "0777" permission, yet it persists on this file.

Hello, We got a question regarding our community. A lot of our forums have the type “Questions”, we noticed that after a recent update (we are not sure which) the default sorting for the topic is based on upvotes. For example this topic. Is there an option to get it back to sorting on date as default, while keeping the functionality that brings you to the newest comment. Thanks in advance. Kind Regards, Thomas

Hi I'm creating a page and I'm trying to apply css to other blocks such as the whos online block. The only css I can apply to things is the option where it has an advanced tab to add css, but the css only applies to the background template of the website and not the other blocks, just the one I'm working on. And some blocks don't have the option to add custom css. Also I can't copy blocks to the other full custom template pages and create a full template because the blocks lose their live functionality when copying direct HTML. Is it that I have to learn php better or? I am not sure.

I would like the admin to edit posts silently (without displaying edited by my_name), is that possible? I often correct typos, add an uppercase at the beginning of a title, make corrections to the formatting of a post etc.. and would rather not have that "edited by" line displayed. Thanks!

After upgrade from 4.6.10 to something higher, split topic into different topic doesn't work. I select few posts and after split I got this error message. Only one post is moved, however. It's annoying when I have to move 20-30 posts.

Hello, I use IPB since 2006 year and I used to some modules and plugins. During this long time IPB changes some tables, so in my database I have some obsolete tables (for example the first one bbcode_mediatag is like that). In bold should be an obsolete tables, no longer used by Invision community or unistalled modules. I use the latest iVC 4.6.12 - Board, Blog, Gallery, Pages and Calendar. Which tables can I remove from database? I would remove in bold, but maybe there are some to delete else. Thanks. Those two last with x_utf_ prefix are important too?
