If I delete a 2FA security question that members have previously used what happens, do they get prompted to use another security question if another is available? Ted.

This keeps happening and I don't know why. Themes do not get created unless I import them from the marketplace. I just want to create a copy of the default IPS theme.

I can't find any information on user comments on article pages. I want to stop guests from posting comments on our article pages. I can find info on permissions for the calendar and forum, but nothing about the rest of the site and there isn't anything that seems to control that within the permissions for Guests in the group settings either. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi I'm currently trying to "port" a PHP application I'm using in our forum to a regular Pages page. I'm creating several fields, and one I'm looking at now is a field for "database relationship". So I'm linking this database to a similar one. I'm getting the data as link to the other database. Is it possible to instead get the record image and display the link on that. Maybe there are something that can be done in the custom display view format? Or maybe in the page record template itself? If it is sort of an object, maybe I can get the image from that? Thanks!

Is there a way to deactivate a member's account? We want deactivate accounts when users cancel their subscription with us and reenable them when users reopen their subscription, this way all their previous data is preserved.

I've opened a second website using Invision Community and intend to close the first one. Is there a way to import members from one site to the other, with the same login information?

Is there a way to rebuild the reputation and post/content counts? I could've sworn I've done this before but can't find it to save my life. Tried searching the board but that's been fruitless so far.

Hopefully this is my last question in regards to this migration...... Lots of posts with URL bbcode. Like: [url]http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/member.php?u=482[/url] I tried searching, but as with the other questions, didn't come up with anything. How can I convert those to actual links?

Example: Any ideas? In the system log I see this:

but I'm logged into the front end, and am able to access Client Area, where billing and everything else is. When attempting to update to new version, system warns me about the unsecure connection (The information you’re about to submit is not secure), and when I insist on going further, nothing happens - I'm sent back to the login area. In the meantime, front end and Client Area are fine.

Hi guys! I have a page that was created in the Pages app... it's going to be used as a tribute to an important community member that died a year ago. I wanted to figure out the best way to allow members to add a comment on the page to add their respects as well. I thought about creating a forum thread and then creating an RSS feed to import the posts into that page. I had also considered creating a database for comments, but that seemed to be a bit overkill for what I was trying to do. Just curious to see if anyone had any other ideas that I should be thinking about.

Hi, I have configured Commerce for accepting iDeal, Bancontact, Apple Pay and Creditcard payments. iDeal and Credit Card payments seem to work just fine. Apple Pay does not show as an option on the customers side, even though it seems to be configured successfully. On the Commerce side It has been configured identically to the iDeal settings. Bancontact payment work fine from the customers point of view, they are withdrawn from the customers bankaccount, confirmed as a successful payment ON SCREEN to the customer, but there is no email confirmation to the customer or to the invisioncummunity administrator (me). The customer gets this o…

As postend in my last support request we changed the server. Since then following issue occurs: When posting a new database record it comes to the error code: EX1366 and the record is not saved, here is the content of the system log to that issue: INSERT INTO `cms_custom_database_7` ( `record_publish_date`, `record_last_comment`, `member_id`, `record_last_comment_by`, `record_last_comment_name`, `record_last_review`, `category_id`, `record_approved`, `record_locked`, `record_views`, `record_pinned`, `record_featured`, `record_future_date`, `record_comments`, `record_reviews`, `record_comments_queued`, `record_comments_hidden`, `record_image`, `record_image_thumb`…

I enabled IndexNow today as I had only just come across this feature. It's now logging consistent errors: 403 invalid_api_key Array ( [host] => www.XXX.com/forums/ [key] => b0742bd1dded481993be712b9deXXXX [keyLocation] => https://www.XXX.com/b0742bd1dded481993be712b9de6XXXX.txt [urlList] => Array ( [0] => https://www.XXX.com/forums/topic/534459-wtb-exposure-2510-integrated-amplifier/ ) ) I can see the file being referenced above in the key location has the wrong path. That file is present at /forums/ but not at the base level as the error log shows. As there are no settings related to this in…

Our use case: User joins and registers and is in New Member group. Once they post in New Member Intros forum and it is approved, Group Promotions upgrades them to Member group (for full access to the site), when Post Count = 1. Since upgrading to 4.6.11, it is simply not working.

I updated my test environment to 4.6.11 last week with no issues, but when trying that now in my production environment, I get the "Manual action Required" error message on step 2. I've done a search and it looks like you typically need to fix this on the backend when it occurs. Is that the case here? Thanks, John

For a while now we have found the IP addresses of new members and posters practically unusable and inaccurate. They're simply not reporting the correct information. For example, One just now, reports in Invision as: Mount Hawthorn, Western Australia, 6016, Australia However, when I check the same IP in https://nordvpn.com/ip-lookup/ Which is absolutely accurate and Western Australia is a LONG way from Victoria. Similarly, my own IP is reported by Invision as just being "Australia". But if I check it in nord, its more accurately reported as: We use this to vet new member introductions, and more often than not we cross…

As you can see, Recommended Comments don't collapse nicely (in Safari on Mac). The "Go to this comment" div should not push the post body text down to a very narrow column. Perhaps setting a minimum width on the text body column would help to collapse better? I've seen this issue with printing pages also in some browsers. This finally collapses nicely once reaching mobile width.
