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?

So i am having all kinds of strage template related issues lately. For example: <img src='{file="$record->_record_image_thumb" extension="cms_Records"}' alt="{$record->container()->name}"> did NOT output the URL in the src="" property but instead gave a base64 encoded data stream src='data:image/webp;base64,UklGRmgIAABXRUJQVlA4IFwIAADQIACdASpaAEoAPm0uk0akIiGhK9RsMIAN I've disabled all sorts of caching within IPS, checked the templates, rebuilt stuff, etc. Also i found that if I output the URL in HTML before the <img> tag like this <p>{file="$record->_record_image_thumb" extension="cms_Records"}</p> <im…

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…

I'm stumped and afraid I'm missing something easy. Help! I've customized the Email wrapper template to include some custom profile fields. I performed multiple tests over the past week of edits and got everything dialed in... now it just stopped working! The email sends just fine. The bulk mail preview correctly displays the custom fields just before sending. But the sent copy just disappears those fields! I've tried using native tags on the bulk mail editor, like {member_name} I've tried standard calls, like {$member->email} I've tried custom fields, like: {{$customprofile = $member->profileFields();}} {{$customfirstname = $customprofil…

Hi Guys, anyone seen this error before? I tried to upload the attached image file (inside a zip because the IPS forum gives me the same error) and received the error. I opened the file, resaved it as the same file type, and it worked just fine. G2.1_Series_UnityChassis_II_1760x.jpg.zip OK, found some additional info. It's a JPG, but macOS Preview also says it's a webp image.

I've got a bit of a quandary with my users - I provide them storage space based on their memberships so they can upload content to posts, etc.. Works great, except for when somebody runs out of space - I have to increase the space allowed for their group, or consider enabling the ability to delete their attachments, which will in turn create broken links in content they uploaded. Is there any way to move attachments from a user or possibly a thread into a Gallery? That might be a better solution than having broken content on the site - that is if Gallery uploads do not count against a user's attachment limits (if defined). Any ideas or solutions I'm not seeing a…

Hey guys, it started a few feeks ago, my site got FLODDED with Spam postings from guests and new users. I figured I should update to the latest release but the spam continues... I am allowing guest comments on articles and like to keep that since ~70% of all valid comments are from guests. Also the massive increase in spam accounts worries me. Is this something IPS is informed about? Is this a known issue with recaptcha atm? Thanks
