Pretty sure I have it configured correctly, but can't get it to show anything. Plenty of posts on my site, I've tried it as a sidebar block, as a page block, as a subforum block. Nothing ever appears. Current settings, 2 posts in the last 9999 minutes. Is there something else I'm missing to get it working?

I've had around 10 spam accounts from India over the last 48 hours. When checking the IP, they are all from India. This morning I set it so that accounts from India are under manual review and yet 5 minutes ago I've got a new account posting spam, and the IP is from India.

After a number of years of being offline, we recently brought our message board back from the dead. Some of our users/members couldn't remember their old logins and just re-registered as new members. Is there a way to merge an old member account with the new user/member account?

We are in the cloud, and trying to integrate a new ad partner Ezoic and it is going very poorly. We have a small group of users that pay a subscription to get no ads. Ezoic doesn't use the ad blocks, so they gave us a script to put in that would (they said) prevent ads for that group. We made changes to core > front > ipsfocus > headExtra and put things in there. I thought everything was working but now people are saying they can't access the forums. Some groups can, some can't so I want to remove the latest changes and revert back. I can't get into the admin panel, I get this message no matter what I try. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. [[Templa…

Long story short. I made a bunch of subdomains to sort all my storage into subdomains. Files into download.domain.com. Images into images.domain.com etc. So far so good. Apparently the permissions that is set when creating a subdomain do not work properly when then changing the storage in ACP. So not everything was moved but ACP still deleted the content left over on the original storage. After a lot of back and forth I decided to restore from a backup, but dumb as I am I didn't make a full backup before I started the storage move, since I didn't know permissions would cause so many issues. So, I restored all the files which I had a backup of, but the database b…

Installation went pretty smoothly but the conversion from the old to the new board has issues with the image paths. I've given the full path to, the MyBB install, the image folder, avatars folder, what ever folder I could think of. I've searched the forums here and only found questions about how to solve this whiteout answers. The explanation underneath the fields: Would say that's pretty spot on. (also without the slash) Did anyone find the solution for this? Thanks!

I added the blog feature to my forum base. I'm not seeing it under community or the applications. I don't see a place where I can download the files from purchase area to manually install - any suggestions on how to get this to show on the backend? On applications page I have refreshed many times for updates - still not showing. Under settings > license keys it is showing there with a check mark. Wondering where I am missing a toggle to turn it on and have it show on the admin area? It's also not showing on the +create menu bar option either. Maybe I'm being impatient... but was hoping to get it started.

I was in the admin area - logged in under a different user and now it won't reset or go back to the admin. I still have access to the admin area, but the front end is stuck on this page. Is there a way to get it unstuck? Will it time out and then go back to my profile? I don't see under their account area a way to 'logout' Needing help here- suggestions?

Morning all, So last night I did an upgrade of the forum software then went to bed. Woke up to messages saying that people were not able to post. My team member turned off all the integrations but it made no difference. I took a look this morning and realised he missed some plugins so I turned them all and and service was restored. In an effort to find which plugin it was I started turning things back on. Most of it was back on when suddenly I'm not getting a 500 error. The site and the admin panel are down which is strange (https://www.celica-club.co.uk/forum/index.php?act=idx). The plugin should not have taken down the admin panel as well? As the admin panel…

Hi, I noticed that when I open a page with a file comment that contains a Redit embed, it immediately loads the Redit page taking me away from the page of my community. I couldn’t see the comment as there is no way to stop it loading in the browser so I found it in the database: <div class="ipsEmbeddedOther"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" data-embedid="embed3293672328" data-embed-src="<___base_url___>/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=embed&url=https://www.reddit.com/r/betterCallSaul/comments/wcuv1h/hey_everyone_ive_scoured_the_internet_and_created/"></iframe> </div> Is the Redit rich-embed broken or…
