Hi, We are having issues with our badge rules since upgrading. For example, we have 1 badge that is issued after 5 minutes of registering and it currently isn't being issued. We also have limited edition badges we ran for a period of time and the rules got paused, since upgrading all of those badges have been removed from members and we now have to manually reapply them. Is this is a known issue?

I get occasional messages, generally during a bulk mail send, that files in the datastore are not writeable. In the last bulk send approximately 500 messages. I also get bounced emails with incorrect email addresses (I am guessing corrupted due to datastore issue. Before installation the I ran the system check which highlights any problem forum permissions, with no problem. The permissions seem to be ok, and looking at file dates, the files are still being written to at other times. Is there are more detailed permissions checker script? On a bulk mail send, when would the datastore be used? During a mail send would the directory and files be accessed b…

hi, we are posting via REST API into our IPB. the current setting from members/groups/content is the current setting from /forums/forum/Posting settings is what we want is that the user has to write at least 30 APPROVED posts until the content moderation will be removed. but in fact that happens mostly after under 30 posts, in some cases after under 10 posts. for example the following user was suddenly able to post (where in our version "GESAMTE INHALTE" is written, in the english origininal there is written "POSTS"): what could be the reason for that? could it have to do with the "content count"? does it include other things than posts…

I've attempted to rebuild my URL posts to not require a link to open in a new page. When the rebuild begins, it takes place in the background. Not wanting to wait for a long rebuild process, I click the link to rebuild manually. It proceeds for 5-10 seconds and then I get and error message saying I do not have permission for the task. I hope the process will still finish in the background but has anyone else had this issue? I'm on 4.6.8. The last image has some System Log entries which could give some feedback.

Hey there! I'm looking for information regarding the frequency of the cronjob/task. For context, we're moving our site from AWS Elastic Beanstalk where I was able to force the cronjob to only run on 1 server in the auto-scaling group. However, we're moving to a Docker Swarm infrastructure where this isn't quite as easy. So the question is, if I have, let's say, 6 instances of IPS running in the swarm, is it bad if they are all hitting the cron every minute? Should the cron only be called once a minute, or is once a minute the maximum recommended time? In this setup, we would be hitting the cronjob 6 times/minute (or really however many instances/replicas of the…

Hi, I'm using the blog section for our community. Since (a week or so) the blog entry categories has been changed. It seems Invision is using the chosen tags for blog entries. Because it I can only choose most of my used tags which I used in my blog. Example: In the beginning this did not occure. Are you familiar with this? Is this a bug?

So I am cleaning out a Club so I can delete it. I just moved an album (which I created in this Club) to a private Gallery category. However, the album and its entries still appear in the Activity feed (in the Overview tab), and when I click on it there I'm taken to the album in its new location. I'd assume this should disappear from the Activity feed altogether?

Several years ago, a portion of our thriving community was separated into a separate IPS community on its own. It's an experiment that may not be working, so staff is starting to discuss options. Is it possible to import all posts and members from the one community into the first community? Both are running the current IPS version, etc. Totally updated. I've been reading through posts here and doing a Google search, but no results are showing for import options since before 2020. Thanks.

I was browsing guest users reading my articles. I came across a guest who has 1 registration ... Following the link I see an account with a real ID for this user, no name and no email address ... There is no such user in the ACP members list. Through PHP myadmin table core_members finds this user, last registration - but no name, no email address, only IP address and is in the validation group ... I tested my registration form - without a name and email address I can't register ... Is this an bug in version 4.6.8? I can easily remove this user from the database - but it seems to me that this behavior of the registration form, surrounded by someone, is quite un…

Hi, Does anybody else has issues? I just tried to send a PM and it got stuck on "Saving" forever. Tried twice and no luck. My message included a link to a topic from this forum. When I removed the link my message was instantly published but it contains also the previous failed message. Trying to edit the message results again in "Saving" being stuck. Also now while typing this message I noticed the same issue with a link and I also can't open the Code window (spinning circle and that's it). EDIT: It must be some temporary quirk. Now all good. Just delete this topic.
