Just want to publicly say "thank you" to Marc for hand-holding me through some recent administrative transitions on our forum. The process took about three weeks overall, and Marc was extremely helpful and patient with my steep learning curve and frequent (sometimes banal) questions. Thank you Marc, you rock! 👍 🤩

This is my first post: I have been with IPS since version 1 - since 2003. I tried to access my "Support" via my Client page, but it's missing . . . . because I have not "renewed" . . . here's why: I am the Director of LUPus Patients Understanding & Support (LUPUS), a non-profit for people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We provide free information & free psychological support. We do not charge any money. We rely on donations & the shortfall, comes from me. I have used IPB since version 1. When version 3 was released, I paid $99 for the Lifetime License. That was a huge sum of money. When version 4 arrived, we were to…

I renewed my licence earlier today, yet I don't have access to support? If I'm able to download/upgrade (which I have done), how come the support part hasn't been automated? The whole point of renewing is to gain access to support, I thought there might be a delay, but it seems not to be the case.

Can you please explain, how Bitly is supposed to work and how to set up it in IPS? I have activated links shortening in AdminCP. I have followed the link to register with Bitly (free account). I have generated an access token in API section of Bitly and added it to IPS. I have tried to add some internal links to Pages articles. Nothing happens. Should IPS replace all links to my domain on the fly? Or how is it supposed to work? 😊 Thanks.

Ever since the recent update, I haven't been able to locate where the coding for ads are controlled within the themes HTML/CSS editor. I have some hyperlink images I want to edit and all I remember is that I placed the coding under where ads will appear on IPB. This is what I have as of right now (I need to do this for the default theme also): Anyone have any idea as to where I might find the coding for this in the HTML/CSS theme editor?

After the update, there was a problem with background tasks. What caused the search index to freeze? Cron job seems to be spelled out and the rules are working. P.S. Worth Redis and Elasticsearch and so for the second day.

Hi, our message board seems to be having the same issue that was previously posted here in October: Can't seem to get it to go away, and clearing our cache hasn't had any effect either. Not sure what to do.

My community in cloud website broke out of no where? This is actually a critical point in the day where I get most of my sales and i cant even access admin panel. Not one page in my website. It is telling me to reinstall the software by redirecting me to admin/install. it looks like my whole website was deleted which i really hope wasnt the case. Update: Well email got back quicker than usual. They are fixing it. Can a mod or admin please close.

We've got several members experiencing issues when trying to upload an image into a post. We don't have a max size set for uploads, so that's not the issue. It's most common, they say, with Firefox -- but they're having it with Chrome and Edge as well. They try to upload an image and then wait some time, after which they receive the following error: Sorry, an unknown server error occurred when uploading this file. (Error code: -200) I'm not able to recreate it, but they have this a lot. I'm seeing a number of posts for this error, but we're not having this in Admin side or with animated images. They're taking pics on cameras and trying to upload a JPEG. Any sugg…

Hello we upgraded the test-forum to 4.6.9 There was a message the elasticsearch minimum version was bumped to 7.2 - as also stated in the release notes for 4.6.9. But that message is somehow gone. The support module in the AdminCP still states to not upgrade beyond 6.7: Is the release notes right or the message in the AdminCP? Could you please clarify this? Thanks! 🙃
