We plan to introduce new product and spend some time to setup and perfect the copy, graphics and offer. During this testing phase we don't anyone of our existing member getting a notification that we posted a new product. How do we stop that?

I went to edit someone's post and I was met with this error: I've noticed this has happened on a few random posts but not all. Nothing in the content of the post seems out of the ordinary, it's just basic text. Any insight on how to fix this? May be worth noting that we don't have the time limit for post edits enabled, it's set to unlimited.

Hi Guys - Just an FYI, I was getting the following message in AdminCP > System > Search Engine Optimization, after enabling "Rewrite URLs." I found an error in my hosts file that was causing this issue. I had the wrong IP address set for the server. Once I set it right, the message disappeared. The rewriting does not seem to be working. This may be because you have not configured your server correctly, but may be a false error if your community is not generally accessible. Check friendly URLs are working, and if they are not, ensure you have configured your server correctly or contact your hosting provider or server administrator for assistance.

Hello, there. In my country, the date format "Month, D, YYYY" from the lastest version is REALLY, REALLY unusual. Here we use DD/MM/YY (or YYYY). Using "relative dates" don't solve the problem for older posts. And changing the system locale neither. Is it possible to just change this without paying for a plugin? Thank you!

I can see the query running on my server but I have removed the widget everywhere that I can find. Yet it's still running /*IPS\downloads\widgets\_topDownloads::render:99*/ SELECT dfid, count(*) AS downloads FROM `downloads_downloads` LEFT JOIN `downloads_files` ON dfi d=file_id WHERE file_cat IN(2,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21) AND dtime>? GROUP BY `dfid` ORDER BY downloads DESC LIMIT 3 This query always runs slowly and I need it to stop running. Any way to find where this mystery widget is running so I can get rid of it? OR.... Any way in the ACP to simply turn this off regardless of where it is running? …

Hope I'm posting this in the right place! Not a critical issue, but something I've noticed on a couple of occasions: I've been viewing active/running tasks in my community suite (adminCP>System>Advanced Configuration>View Tasks), of which there are 3 pages. I click Frequency because I want to see the tasks which run the most frequently at the top, in descending order. However, the list soon loses its sort order, as reflected in the screenshot below: By the last page, everything seems a bit off the rails in terms of sort frequency: I've seen similar issues when sorting columns in other adminCP views (it was a while back, so I can't re…

Hello, I noticed this issue recently. From 1~2 months ago, when customer paid for One "Invoice", commerce system makes Two "Purchases" sometimes. Due to this, License Key delivery system (a.k.a plugin SULK) is delivering key two times. I already contacted to the SULK Plugin developer, and he said this duplicated "Purchase" issue is coming from IPS system itself. How can I fix this issue? Is it well known bug? Thanks. (For the below case, invoice number #236521 makes two purchases, #117457 and #117458),

Hello, I'm considering purchasing Pages for our IPS community Forum and wondered if anyone could point us in the right direction. It's setup to use a free theme that we've customised a little to be "ours" and fit our niche gaming community. Since we set that up, we've been working on a PHP website to host a news feed, navigation bar with a link to the forum, it uses its own authentication using an existing MSSQL database thats connected to a game server that we hope to host - but the trouble is, we want to keep all the authentication as simple as possible and don't want to get weighed down by integration and SQL triggers etc. (Yes, I know why did we purch…

Hello, I prepared a new closed Club and inside it I placed a Page. Into that specific Page settings, I should be able to choose if the Page is visible to "Members not in this Club", "Club Members" or only to "Club Moderators". The thing is that if I choose "Members not in this Club", they don't see it. I already checked the Members Group permissions. Any advice? Thanks!

Dear All Is there a way to prevent a member using the PM system? I did try creating a new group with PM's set to ZERO, but on testing it, the ability to send a PM was STILL available. The background (in case you have another suggestion?) is that a member has sent a couple of objectionable PM and we want to stop him from sending PM's Any help gratefully received. Many thanks Bill

We had to move everything over to a new PayPal, and that meant cancelling all of the current PayPal billing agreements/subscriptions and creating new ones on the new account. Everything is working as intended except the old PayPal agreements we cancelled through PayPal are still showing up on the members account as active on the ACP, but when we try to view them we get an error. How can we fix this? I would assume it would know it was cancelled on PayPal's end and not have it appear as active still. Members aren't able to change their subscriptions themselves because it acts like they already have one even though it's cancelled.

Hi all, Since our upgrade to 4.6 series, the audio beep that was generated when we received a notification while online in our community is now gone. A few users confirmed that this is happening with them as well. The first question I need to ask is if this is something that is happening in all installs, or it is an issue specific to our install. Could you guys confirm this for me? Thanks a lot! 🙂 Gabe.

I've been running an online forum since 2006 and I have been using IPS since (I think) at least 2011), so I've been a customer for 10 years. I have two licenses, another one is used for a client's website. I just want to say something about what I perceive is poor development practise from IPS regarding upgrades. Since version 4, every major point upgrade has brought me nothing but grief. You remove features that are integral to the functioning of my community and you introduce things that are, to be honest, seldom very useful. I don't know why you remove these things. Maybe there are reasons that make sense to yourselves as a company, but I have to tell you t…

After struggling for months to find a developer who can help me create a webhook, I'm wondering how hard it is to make it myself. Using the Zapier integration to create a 'trigger', I would like to add a secondary group to a user. I have no development experience however I am quite good at Zapier and configuration. Has anyone else done this themselves? Or can someone direct me to a guide for this? I found this thread below but at the time there was documentation on webhooks available. Has this changed now?
