Our users get confused following a thread that includes multiple conversations. Is threaded replies a thing already? Similar to when you reply to somebody in the comments section on Instagram?

Hi there I just upgraded to 4.6.4 from 4.6.3 and it seems to have broken all Jquery - in Admin CP, and on the frontend. Using my custom theme, and a brand new theme makes no difference.

Hello, the video describes my error in detail, the file is not displayed in the HTML & CSS editing section. They only appear for a millisecond and then disappear. I have searched various internet forums, but there are no similar issues. I will add that the forum engine is newly installed and nothing has been changed in the settings. Thank you in advance for your support ❤️ ezgif.com-gif-maker.mp4

I have renewed the 6mo license, and still getting 15k+ admin notifications about expiring and expired licenses in the admin area. (Also, why am I getting warned about a license that will expire in 6mo?) Every admin page takes 30-60 seconds to download, or sometimes they just timeout. I have emptied the acp_notifications table in mysql, but these still show up. How can I get rid of them? Thanks!

Hello, the save changes button does nothing when you click on it after making changes. If you click on it before making changes a message pops up saying you haven't made any changes, so it seems as soon as I make changes it stops working.

I have been told more than once that the Invision Community Platform is not user friendly on mobile devices. I dismissed this since when I gave a cursory look at my mobile device looking at our website, it looked ok to me and thought that these ones don't know what they are talking about. However, I have always used my computer when on our website and started to think about helping those who only use mobile devices a tutorial on how to navigate our website. So that is when I discovered why the Invision Community platform is difficult for those who only use mobile devices. So I have a question for the IC clients about menu management for mobile devices and what your recomm…

Topics with a marked answer cannot be opened anymore. Happens here on the forums and all my sites. Example: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/462565-link-back-to-landing-page/ Error: Call to a member function truncated() on null (0) Turning off “Enabled Solved” removed the error.

I am trying to reward anyone who takes out a yearly subscription from my forum with some points and a badge. However, I have added the rule which doesn't appear to be working. Can anyone assist please. Not sure if I am missing something? I have tried without the "Active" part but neither adds points or awards the badge.

Before version 4.6 in the message, the user could switch between pictures using the arrows. While the picture is being loaded for the first time - the arrows are present. After loading - they are hidden. Is this a bug or a feature? Or is there an option somewhere to enable it? I've uploaded some pictures as an example. The last screenshot with the moment of loading when there are still arrows.

Hello, Is there a way to upload a file onto my Invision site so that I can create a custom block that uses it? I want to have an Articulate 360 Storyline on our site. I think the link below says that I could use an iFrame (in a custom block) to do this, but I need to host the Articulate files on Invision. https://articulate.com/support/article/Storyline-360-How-to-Embed-Published-Content-in-a-Web-Page Is it possible to upload files to Invision so that my iFrame could access them? Thanks, Nigel

As titled, after updating to v4.5.4.2, Downloads served by IPS are no longer completing successfully. The downloads end prematurely and result in a corrupted archive. I updated from v4.2.x and Downloads were functioning normally prior. We delayed updates for unrelated reasons. IPS Support isn't being helpful or even bothering looking at the situation closely (why tell me anything about Securi when it is obvious my site is using Cloudflare? ... I digress), so I am hoping someone in the community has had this problem and can actually read what I am saying to advise further beyond generic responses. The test file in question is ~200mb and has over 5,000 downloads o…

Just curious if under General Configuration >> Social Profiles if I can add/modify these? I have no idea what a Xing is, but I would like for Telegram, Discord or OnlyFans to be selectable. How hard is it to modify these, or should I just go add what I need into the template itself?
