Hi, by now there any guide to add more than one authors to a topic? I use a topic as support thread for the student homework, I need add members (dad, mom and student) as authors of that topic, then they can see and interact with staff related homeworks or students issues.

Hi all, New to Invision Community and new to this forum. I have recently installed forum 4.5.2 and migrated from vBulletin 4.0. Everything went fairly smoothly, and after a few PHP tweaks the convertor ran very well and i was impressed with the results. The forum owner has asked me to increase the maximum width, from 1340 to something higher such as 1600. I looked at this guide: But i am still unsure where to increase the width. I was hoping i could edit custom.css. I used the developer tools in Chrome to try and find the setting but i was unsuccessful. Can anyone help here? Thanks in advance.

I've noticed since I turned on push notifications for here, when I click on them to take me to the website, it doesn't get removed from my phone after I've reviewed it - is that the right behaviour to expect? Every notification I have for anything else would be removed from the notifications bar once clicked on it but these you have to manually swipe them off the screen. Be useful to know how they are supposed to work moving forward so we can explain to members what to expect, etc. I'm not sure that would be ideally received but part of me feels like i'm missing something fundamental.

OK I added a bug to the tracker about an issue with the Page Builder - Upload Images Block and it's disappeared without any reason as to why. The issue is that in the Advanced Tab there is provision for some custom CSS, which doesn't work. For extreme measure to be sure the CSS was not working I entered a border-radius of 100px - nothing (I tried other numbers BTW) So I did some console work and found the element I needed and added a 5px border (as seen below) and added the command to the custom CSS file and it worked. So two questions: Why isn't it working? and more importantly, why was my bug report removed from the tracker with…

When adding the CNAME files, do you add them and leave the existing ones, or add them and replace/delete the old ones... It's not clear in their docs, or anywhere I searched. Thanks JM

Hi folks, I upgraded my old phpBB (3.3.2) site to Invision and everything went brilliantly until the users attempted to log in. Even my own test accounts that had been converted gave me a wrong password error and locked me out after 3 attempts. Has anyone experienced this problem before and know how to fix it? My members will not be happy if they all have to reset their passwords after the switch, and I really don't want to have to manually delete everything and re-convert. Please help!

Hi Guys This has been happening on and off for a couple of weeks now. Some members (around 20%) are unable to comment on threads. They are "forced" to comment by adding a txt file This seems to be entirely random i.e. different groups (including Mods), different locations etc. Sometimes it just goes away, then comes back again. Any ideas?

Hey! Recently I had to re-import my database due to some issues on my host machine. After doing the re-import everything seemed fine, then a few days later I've noticed all these weird letters appearing I've attached some media but it's basically these weird Â's and other weird symbols, I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this issue as it's made the whole of the forums look strange on older posts. I have tried the 'Something isn't right' option in the admin backend but it didn't fix this issue. Thanks!
