Hi, I have a user who wants to delete some/all of his old posts. He's been on the forum for a number of years and finds some of his older posts embarrassing. Is it possible for me/him to selectively prune old posts (e.g. posts older than 2 years). If not, is is possible to delete his account and then re-use his username to set up a new one (thus clearing his post count to zero) or are the usernames unavailable for a certain time after deletion? Thanks, Rob

I cannot enter in the AdminCp of our forum because the sistem does not recognize my password. I have an alert for the upload of a new release. When I click on the update bottom appear the window to login Invision Community, usually I entered my username and password and go ahead but this time no. I cannot understand why...

In an effort to re-activate some old accounts we recently sent an email to anyone that hasn't logged in for more than 90 days, and among those we had a large % bounce. I have a list of all the bounced emails, is there an easy way to unsubscribe them all from future emails?

Hi, as far as I know there is no specific setting for this, so I assume this is a bug. Please correct me if I'm wrong. When posting a record with a mention in it, it will send a notification/email as expected based on the user's settings. However, every time you edit said record, the notification and email will be re-triggered. This also happens with comments in page records. I wasn't able to reproduce this using forum topics. Any help appreciated!

Hello. I updated a community package (BrilliantDiscord), and I am unsure if it is coincidence or not, but that seemed to have broken all JavaScript on the site, presumably due to JQuery now failing to load. Attempting to reload bypassing all caching did not fix the issue. The console isn't showing any 404s with scripts failing to load, so I guess it is just failing to load them entirely? Thanks in advance

The last few weeks I have started to get email from my IPB, see below. These are obviously spammers that don't have a legit email address. Is there any way to NOT get these emails? Tia, Andreas

I have some IPS licenses. Some of them are active and some are expired. I would like to renew one of the expired. However, if I try to renew, I am forced to renew two other licenses as well. I would like to renew only one I have selected and need one invoice per license. Is it possible to split renewal invoices per license? Thanks.

Sometimes when typing a draft, I'll see that someone else has replied popup as a notification. I'll click that notification to see the new message and my post is lost when I go back to the editor. Othertimes, I'll go to reply to a new post and see that a previous post that I have already submitted is in the editor as my draft. I've noticed this here on these forums as well as our own community. Anyone else? Is it just me? I'd like to officially make a feature request that we fix this. Thanks.

After the 6.2 update it seems Invision no longer creates customers on Stripe. I love the fixes and improvements that have been happening with Stripe, but it would be cool if the invision team could look into this bug! I have blurred all the private information. As you can see no customer is created, yet all the necessary information is passed(see image #2)

For some reason or other the Online Users widget is not always showing correctly who is online. For example I just visited my site and although I'm permanently logged in I'm not showing in the Online Users list. See below: I'm logged in: But in the Online User list another member is showing but not me. Now, if I click the (See full list) link I can see my username and when I go back to the home screen I'm showing in the list. There is also another issue that has been around for a long while that's never been addressed. On the rare occasion that the Online User list is working I can see that I'm logged in and there is one guest showing, but…

Every forum permissions I have are; See Forum * Read Topics * Post New Topics * Reply to Topics * Download Attachments However, one strangely doesn't have 'Read Topics' - it has 'Read Own Topics' instead. I don't recall changing anything when I set the forum up, can anyone suggest why 'read topics' isn't showing. Perhaps I am forgetting a setting or option that is enabled for the forum? I can't find anything though. Please ignore, I've now found the setting. I need to get some glasses. 😕

Hi All, I'm not trying to become an IPS developer... I just want to accomplish my goal and be done. I'd appreciate some help. Background I have a custom written app which I want my community members to access from IPS without having to login. For this purpose, my custom app reads variables passed via the URL (it uses $_GET). i.e. https://mycommunity.com/applogin.php?User=username&ID=userID Goal Our community has the IPS Pages app. I want to create a simple custom block that has an image in it. When a user clicks the image, some very simple PhP code should execute, produce the necessary URL and send the user to that…
