I have this morning had to disable new registrations from our large 150,000+ user community due to what must be a bot registering spam accounts. I have all the usual registration features in place (captcha etc). But in the last 24 hours I've had over 2500 registrations. Every one is passing the Spam Defence score (1), and they are activating their email. They are all using different IP addresses from across the world so an IP ban is out of the question. I have all new registrations locked into a very limited use New Member user group that does not give them any access until they introduce themselves, but I made the mistake of allowing this group to still ha…

So here's my issue If I do a system check before doing the upgrade it comes back with this: MySQL Requirements MySQL version 5.5.5-10.3.27-MariaDB. Recommendations You are running PHP version 7.2.34.

Suddenly our community site is giving the old EX145 error code when trying to log in, or when logged in and trying to load a new page. This usually indicates that the table ibf_core_sessions has crashed, but in this case, repairing the table shows no errors and has no effect on the problem. So, I'm completely stuck! For what it's worth, the forums continue to function normally if you're logged out, but any attempt to log in generates the error, including for the ACP. I'm guessing I'll have to log a ticket for this one, but thought I might try the brains trust first. Kevin

Hi there, My forums custom theme was suddenly broken when it started showing this error: Upon changing the logged in user theme, the forums would work right. No changes on WHM, Cpanel, PHP, Cloudflare were done at all, neither a platfrom upgrade. What I have changed is a few backgrounds file (compressed the images) that the theme reads from, I did restore the original ones but no luck. After restoring the original ones which are not even related to the admincp theme I started getting this on admincp page: [[Template core/admin/system/login is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to…

We've been receiving a lot of requests from our members to have their status updates deleted. But there is no way to mass delete them. At present time the only way to do it is to manually delete or hide each one. That's an incredibly laborious task (one has like 200 pages of statuses). Is there any way these can be mass selected and removed?

Hello, I tried to create a request form with Pages application. It's a very simple thing, I'll just ask myself to see "And in fact, the person who wants it can see" because of this error 😞 What can you suggest me to get around this error. Users fill the form over and over again because they think it is a mistake. Here is some SS Also I cannot find the hide this option "Notify me of replies" because it's unnecessary. The form was filled, as only the administration part could see the post as a result of the permissions I made.

Is it possible to change the message that is displayed when an attachment is unavailable? For example. Guests cant download attachment and it shows this error message below, when it reality its simply because they are not a member. It should show that they need to sign up to the forums instead as this would hurt conversion of guests to members on the forum. It should say something along the lines of "This attachment is available for members only. Click "Sign In" below to create your free account now" Sorry, there is a problem This attachment is not available. It may have been removed or the person who shared it may not have permission to shar…

Hi, Is anyone running elasticsearch 7.9 with 4.5.1? Could have sworn I read somewhere that it was supported and the files claims MINIMUM_VERSION = '6.0.0', UNSUPPORTED_VERSION = '8.0.0', but on a test install I'm getting the following errors whenever it's being used.

In viewing the code for Pages database records, the open graph meta tag og:type is added for each display record: <meta property="og:type" content="object"> This is true of all our different databases records. I cannot find reference to an og:type of object and should be at least one of the types listed at the open graph spec: https://ogp.me/#type_article How do I change or modify the content value? And where is it coming from so that I can change or specify the correct value: in my case either "website" or "article"

I had a user note that they had spent a good deal of part of a day working on a post before submitting, and discovered that after submitting they were unable to take advantage of the 60 minute edit window we provide. They “tested” and seem to suggest that perhaps the window is being calculated from when the post draft is first started, and not when posted. I can’t seem to reproduce, but wanted to check with the community here to see if anyone has more specific technical knowledge of how the edit time is calculated and what triggers it.

I have been given a quote by a developer to make an app that will get populate data from an IPS database or application. He is not an IPS dev but seems to think its not a problem. My question is, has anyone done similar, and if so are there any hurdles to overcome? I have had previous experience with apple and android apps and they would constantly break everytime iOS was updated. I am concerned a combination of that along with IPS updates might cause a lot of problems. I have in mind a couple of different apps. One of them would require a member to belong to a premium usergroup to access the data. This would obviously mean having to log into the app with their IPS u…

Hello guys first good morning, afternoon and night. I have a small problem in the application of "Pages" I created a database called trackers the idea is to have a report tracker in my community so that my clients publish possible problems related to my services and the like. It happens that whenever a customer publishes this new record it is necessary to be approved to make it visible I would like to know if there is a possibility that these records will be created as approved automatically. Thus, there is no need for a Community Administrator to approve the record "topic accomplished" by the prospective client. For besides being very annoying the approval my …
