We have updated a site today and have noticed that the custom blocks are now missing and there doesn't see an option to creating them again? I have checked the 'Manage Blocks' tab on the front page of the site and it isn't there. Has it been moved?

Hey there! I liked the new gamification achievements feature. However, do you think the current list of badges and ranks are enough items? Is there any new pack of badges, ranks and rules that could be installed in the forum? Cheers, Ibai

One of our long-standing forum members is being cyber-stalked across various social media sites and forums, including our own. I'd like to prevent access to our site by banning the stalker's IP address. Is there a way to review a list of guests plus their IP's over a specific date range, so that I can identify the correct IP to ban, rather than eye-balling the online users page until I see a guest from the location we have in mind? I can't see anything like this in the AdminCP (unless I'm just not seeing it, which is entirely possible). Our site is on the Invision cloud.

We're cleaning out some old accounts from over ten years ago. A couple of them have one or two posts attached that we want to leave in place -- so am deleting the account through AdminCP. I click the "leave content" option and then select the option to continue attributing posts to that user. However, every time it removes the attribution and shows the post as made by "Guest". I've done two accounts like this, and both did not work. Is this a bug?

Thanks to the advice in the earlier thread, I'm working on instructing staff about the use of the "Flag as Spammer" button. However, it seems that three of our staff groups see this button on any member's public profile page, but one staff group does not see it there. Where do I edit how that button is seen? Thanks!

A moderator inadvertently flagged a new member as a spammer. This has all been sorted out and the member reinstated in to the normal member group (his account was banned). However, we've cleared his Member Title in the profile area of the AdminCP, but on his public profile the title is showing as a "Rank" and shows the title of "Banned" in there. How do I delete that, since that profile field is showing as empty? Thanks. Added: Notice second attachment here as well. This seems to be something happening to all accounts in the "Inactive" group for banned members. All those accounts are showing both a Rank and a Member Title of "Banned". But I cannot find a way to edit …

I have a Stripe account set up and integrated in my IPB community, and set to use Alipay. When I attempt a transaction, I am taken to a page on Alipay.com that says the following: How do I complete my setup so users can purchase items through Alipay? The instructions on Stripe's website seem to be for low-level programming of integrations: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/alipay/accept-a-payment

Hello I'm using two elements to cause fast page loading. <img data-src="{file='$file' extension='cms_Records'}" loading="lazy" style="height: auto;" class="ipsImage MangaImage" alt="..."> data-src and loading="lazy" My doubt is, does one thing cancel out the other or can maintain these two elements? I have a manga reader, the images are heavy.

If you click the "Flag as Spammer" on a member's account, will it block the use of the e-mail address associated with the account? We have a lot of banned members who were identified as spammers and only have a post count of 0-3. Right now, the accounts are just banned --- leaving them in the system to make sure that no user with the same e-mail address can register again. However, I'd like to be able to delete those accounts. Would I be able to "Flag as Spammer" to remove all content, delete the account and record the e-mail address as blocked in the system? Thanks!

I can't even submit a ticket via the AdminCP and the "Create Ticket" button in the client area here seems to not work at the moment. I tried installing a plugin for CKEditor via the "add button" function and it completely broke. I went into /applications/core/interface/ckeditor and tried to delete the plugin folder but that didn't help. Is there anywhere else I can look to fix this myself? The plugin was this.

Hello, I upgraded today to 4.6.4 and right now the community seems a little slow to load any page, is this normal? This right after the update (it wasn't like that before) Could it be something in background? ----- Edited ----- Already normalized

Hi, with 4.6, we don't seem to be able to hover over somebody's name and see where they are currently viewing. And this is my imagination, I'm sure that we were able to hover over the online name of any particular user and it would tell us where they were currently viewing. Is this feature not available now? Or is there something that I haven't correctly configured with the new version? Thanks

SInce the update to 4.6 and once in a blue moon I get accounts being made with called "Guests" and after a while I have disable "Post Before Registering" and yet I still have 11 guests account. Nowhere to remove them and while looking at the profile they look the same as anyone else but with no email adress and whatnot, but what really makes my mad that those accounts gets awards from the thiredparty addon and also points from the "members store" addon. I have sent messges and support to one of the thiredparty devs to see if it's one of there plugins that is making it do so, however seems not. Looking at the errors logs and nothing ;(

On Vivaldi browser, pushing the button "sign in to marketplace" gives no reaction at all (no sign in pop up window opens). On Firefox trying to sign in via email gives this error: The funny thing, if I take the URL from above and paste it into the Vivaldi browser I can sign in finally.

Hopefully, this is an easy question, because I probably just don't have a setting right. But after installing the most current upgrade, a member is now able to login anonymously. They appear in the "Users Online" list like this: Our forum does not allow anonymous login or posting. The group that member is in has this setting on: Am I supposed to have settings elsewhere that also work to control this? Thanks!
