On our site, when logged in, the account bar (notifications, PMs, Account Name) appears at the top of the page. However, when a user purchases a product, the CHECKOUT page does not show the Account bar any longer. Same if we're showing an internal page like /privacy or /terms, the Account bar doesn't show. I checked this site (invisioncommunity.com) and find when I purchase a product, the checkout page DOES show the account bar. Is there a theme setting or system setting that manages showing the account bar when in these pages? Thanks

Hi, We moved to Google Workspace a couple of days ago after having self hosted emails on a previous setup via WHM/cPanel, but it's been a right nightmare since. Have - Set up SMTP relay settings and followed Googles documentation (sending emails are not a problem via IPB, it's just a quota issue) - Set up SFP and DKIM in case that would help - Cancelled the trial period as it was suggested as an option to increase limits - Pre-payed for a month (3 licenses) as that also was suggested as an option to increase trial limits We're not sending out any type of bulk mail. The only mails being sent out are user registration, password reset, digest, etc. Wh…

Hello, I was trying to convert all wordpress articles and pages, to invision community pages; so, i get past almost everything but it stops and give a 500 error when it is about to finish. And even if I have every post of wordpress in a db of pages, it isn't completely working (for example, the redirect doesn't work) and the conversion is still there. If you any solution, please help me. Thanks on advance.

In my DOWNLOADS section, I have a parent category of WALLPAPERS set. I have 2 subcategories under WALLPAPERS, which are 'Desktop' and 'Mobile'. The issue I am having. On the front end, on the sidebar in the 'Categories' box, you see the parent category of 'Wallpapers' with the content count of '21'. Underneath 'Desktop' shows '11' and 'Mobile' shows '10'. If I click on the word 'Wallpapers', nothing shows. From the way hierarchy works usually, this would show me ALL the "Wallpapers", regardless of subcategories. When I click on the parent category "Wallpapers", it says "No files in this category yet - Submit the first file". Could anyone tell me if I am missing some…

Hi. I've run into some problems with a self-hosted Invision setup that was working fine until recently. It's probably simple for someone who knows what they're doing. Basically, an upgrade got interrupted, mid-process, and now the entire forum has stopped working. If you're a consultant and would be interested in helping me tackle this, I'd appreciate it. Please send me your hourly rate and any reference information that you think might be helpful. Thanks, Jonathan jooonathan@yahoo.com

Hi all, I a have recently updated my forum after a 3 year break, and trying to re-enable facebook logins. I have followed the documentation however does not appear to be up to date with what I see in facebook developer area. I am receiving the following error, does anyone have an update today guide or know how to resolve this error? Cheers 🙂 URL blocked: This redirect failed because the redirect URI is not white-listed in the app's client OAuth settings. Make sure that the client and web OAuth logins are on and add all your app domains as valid OAuth redirect URIs.

The weirdest thing started happening. I can't embed Tweets on my forum. In topic starters or as a reply. Here's what happens: https://streamable.com/bhde7b Posting a Tweet below to see if it works here or if it's a Twitter thing. Any idea why this could be happening? I didn't make any changes to the forum since yesterday when I could embed Tweets. It's worth mentioning I disabled all customizations / themes / apps / plugins etc and tried to post a Tweet but still couldn't 😕 WELP, it works here. Sigh lol

I'm on 4.4.10 and looking to go to 4.5.4 Many years ago, I converted from PhpBB, but that was many versions ago, and have been through multiple upgrades since then. However, when I download the current version software, it gives me the option to download a version that will: Now I have indeed converted, but it was so long ago. Do I need to download this version with the converters, or can I safely use the regular upgrade files without ticking that box?

Hi everyone! Ever since we've updated our board to the latest patch, we have found out a couple issues with the notification system: Occasionally, notifications are late (talking about 10 minutes max). We thought it may be caused by background tasks taking too long so we manually ran them yesterday and we're still trying to figure out if this specific issue happens again. In the meantime, do you think there might be another cause? One of our members reported that he can't receive new status updates notifications, no matter what. (He still receives every other kind of notification, including status updates replies). We doublechecked his notification settin…
