Has anyone got this working? Twitch embeds are fine on desktop, even tablet, but there's always a #4000 error when trying to view an embedded stream on mobile (at least on iPhones). Wondered if anyone had found a solution?

We have recently migrated from vbulletin to ipb. I struggle to migrate some of the custom solutions we had working with vbulletin. One of them was a robot that would crawl the threads in vbulletin database and flag those that potentially violate adsense TOS so we don't serve adsense on those threads. There was an extra field in threads/topics database and looking into the value the page could decide if adsense should be served or not. In IPB where I can add this custom db field to make its value accessible in topics template? I mean I could go ahead and add it to the topics table, but how do I fetch the value in the template. I see the topics ta…

Hello, I just opened a ticket because we have encountered a problem since this morning (everything worked yesterday) it seems that our license key is no longer recognized even though we are up to date with payments. When we try to update the license information, this message is displayed " The CSRF protection key did not match. This may indicate a plugin or theme is out of date. Please contact technical support for more information." and replacing it, ipb tells us that it does not exist? Similar problems today? Does IPB verify the license key on a particular port of the server? Thank you Kims

I have added two widgets - top posts and topics to my forum. https://community.jackcorsellis.com problem is that they are still visible even when not logged in. Everything should be hidden unless user is logged in. I have blocked access to all other forums but cannot find how to lock these down. Any guidance appreciated thanks

So I just run into this problem. While checking some stuff I got a message that my license key needs to be renewed. I went to license key, pressed refresh license key data, now my spam defense is down. Uhhh, is there something I may have done wrong to cause this? Is there any quick fix for it? Can I just use a normal license key or will that break more? Trying to re-enter the license from the client area tells me it's not valid..

Hello all, I have been using the Twitch Integration application for a while now and everything was fine up until a few weeks ago after a stream I noticed it still showed me online, even the following morning. I removed my channel from the application to try an fix it, but then could not add any channels back. I have tried everything I can think of to fix it, complete reinstall etc. I contacted the dev @LZDigital two weeks ago but they have not been online since early May, I was wondering if someone would be interested in having a look for me? I will pay for your time of course. Kind regards, Madiakz

Hi, Has anyone had access to the Zapier integration? I've been checking daily for weeks now and I can't find it. If you have seen it, do you know if these are possible: Is there a zap action to change an existing user's role? Is there a trigger when someone registers that allows us to use their email address in a follow up action? Is there a trigger for when someone buys something on the store? If these are not possible then I can stop checking Zapier each daily because it won't be able to do what I need... If anyone knows, I'd be grateful if you could tell me. Thanks, Nigel

Hello, I think Invision already has this functionality but I can't figure it out. Our situation: When someone completes a particular action off Invision (they complete a form on SurveyMonkey) I want to automatically upgrade their group on Invision. I had hoped that the Zapier integration would allow this but there is no action for changing a group. Has anyone else had to think of a way to do this? Could you please share your solution? Thanks, Nigel

Does anyone know how I can get access to these after purchase? I want to purchase Blog but I am not ready to upgrade to 4.5. I get it... the easy answer is "upgrade" but we have a large site and need to let 4.5.x stabilize and then test upgrade. This will take another month or so. This should be an easy thing if the files in the applications folder exist somewhere. I messaged IPB support for help but I'm hoping someone else may know. The download feature in the client area only lets me download 4.5 (not even 4.4 legacy). Thanks!

Is there a script, hidden ACP menu, plugin or workaround to rebuild the thumbnails for all the files in the Download section? I just upgraded a site with about 600 files and even though 90% of them have images uploaded, barely 1/5 shows up on the download index page. Thanks in advance!

Hi community, Me and other Firefox users of my IPS community observed a problem with the current Firefox version (83). I'm discussing this topic since a few day with the IPS support team, but we have not yet found a solution. The problem concerns the position where Firefox is scrolling to, when you have a link with a specific comment (anchor) of a topic. There is a precondition I have already found out. The problem occurs only, if there are two or more huge quotes or spoilers in the topic The browser window should not be maximized (maybe only relevant for 4K displays) Chrome, Edge, Safari, Opera is working fine (no need for testing) …

Hi, I would like to get access to the customer's last name via the REST API. I am able to get its address lines in /nexus/invoices/ but I can't find its last name in the associated customer object. I can't find it in /core/members/ either. Could you please tell me where can I find the last name and the first name of a customer via the REST API (I already have the customer's ID) ? Thank you, Franck
