Hello Community, After updating our server from php7.3-fpm to php7.4-fpm we have an issue with the caching configuration. Our server is on Debian 10 and is running : - nginx 1.14.2-2 - PHP 7.4.28-0 (sury packages) - redis 5.0.14 We have an error stating Caching Method is not running well.

Hey, I purchased my licence in 2007 through the Russian reseller ibresource, in 2013 it was transferred to you directly. So, I'm 15 years with you 🙂(a few days ago I bought Pages for my main project, so I'm an active customer) Now I need to set up an English version of my project on a different domain, so I need Forum and Pages. Do I need to buy a new separate license for it for full price?

I'm seeing the following in my Invision power board list of warnings/issues. The hosting provider says this is supported. Is there anything further I can do to fix this/check for issues? Cheers, Gavin. Looks like this may be the solution.

Am I over looking something here? I see the red error message, despite REDIS having been configured and appears to be working? Anything else I can check? Thanks, Gavin. Maybe cached?

This is what keeps popping up. I've gone to the support and there isn't really anything there that is causing issues. Everything is updated. How do I get this to go away?

Hello, I am unable to display the popup with the colour selection when I use the highlight colour option in the text editor. I am trying to access the colours I had saved but it's impossible. I click on "more colours", the screen will blink for a millisecond and I will see no colours. I am doing this on the page editor while editing a WYSIWYG widget on a sidebar. It doesn't work for the text colour as well, it's not the highlight text option. See screenshot. Thanks a lot

Why Downloads calculate file size to download on fly after downloads starts? That slows down download speed. The file size exist on file record in database. When downloading the file it keep calculating it while downloading. Do I miss anything? In my IPB3 it knew file size when download started already.

We are using the Club function to create a space for a number of static pages (related to hospital support in Ukraine: https://99nicu.org/clubs/5-support-nicus-in-ukraine/). Is there a way to create sub-items in the menu, i.e. a dropdown function? We would like to group pages this way, to avoid too many items in the "main menu".

Hi - I migrated a 20+ year old community to Invision in January. We've had a very consistent flow of traffic on our previous site for years. Since migrating to Invision, I've noticed a steady drop off in traffic. Not a slight one, either - more than half - and not all at once, either. It seems to be steadily decreasing, specifically organic searches. Worse, I'm nowhere near as knowledgeable as I wish I were in these areas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. dB

When I share a topic from my forums for example on Twitter it shows the title but always includes the name of the forum, is there a way to share the title and links but in a way that the forum name is excluded ? See the image below, you will see that I want to share everything but remove the words 'Open Forum' in this case. I know I can do this manually but just wondered if there was another option, any help appreciated.

Hi All, I have a membership site that has two subscriptions. The subscription level determines which forums on my IP board members have access to. If I want to send a message via IP Board to members of both subscriptions--or even individual subscriptions--am I able to that? I do have them set up into two different groups, so I was hoping there was a way to send messages to the respective group members on topics that were group-based vs. individual member based. I hope this makes sense and thanks in advance for any guidance! Brian
