Hello, 🙂 When viewing my community on my iPhone (in Safari, not in the app), I only see three buttons : search, create and streams... Is there a way to add PMs and Alerts ? Thank you. 🙂

AdminCP > Commerce > Subscriptions > Subscribers The info seems to break the response layout, you can't see the expiry dates when using an Safari iPad, the table goes off the page without scroll bars or wrapping. Happens in landscape and portrait modes.

I set all my forums' permission so that guests can only read topics, but guests can reply and register later. How do I stop that?

I have a simple IPB site that's broken and unusable after a supposedly simple migration involving an account-account transfer on the same host (no DNS changes). There were no errors during transfer of files and databases, and conf has been updated accordingly. However, the new site after changing the addon domain settings in cPanel displays without any formatting whatsoever. I'm at the very end of my wits trying to figure this out and obviously any sort of reinstall is not possible on an active site. There's only one other guy who had this issue and he didn't seem to have found a resolution I tried toggling designer mode but couldn't disable it, only doing so a…

... if allow remote images is set to false. We would like no remote images, yet with the special supported embedded links (things like facebook, twitter, youtube, gfycat, etc.) I'd like those to continue to work as they did in 4.4. Is this a bug? In 4.4, we had remote images disabled, yet still saw these embedded links.

The search results in the personal messenger still seem to be limited in scope, either by time or maybe the number of results. I'm running 4.4.x at the moment, and looking to update soon to 4.5. Has this been addressed in 4.5? I could have sworn this was addressed in an earlier release, but apparently not? And if this limitation is still in place, what's the easiest way for me to allow for more search results? This is really hindering my ability to find relevant content in older messages (my forum has been online since about 2001!) Thanks in advance for any insight.

Hey guys, Facebook sent me this alert, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Do I need to do anything? I use FB integration on my forum for users to sign in. All the changes are located here: https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2020/10/14/required-migration-token-based-access-user-picture-oEmbed-endpoints/ Thoughts? Is there anything I have to do? I don't quite understand 😆 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've struggled trying many different format permutations and nothing works to specify the secondaryGroups parameter in the Edit Member API call: https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api?endpoint=core/members/POSTitem Specifying [n,n] does NOT work. Does anyone have a working example to set it? Does it need to be in some particular physical format?

Hi guys, After migrating from vb4 everything works fine except redirecting from existing blogs and articles. Vbulletin was installed to mysite.com/forum, but blog and articles located outside "/forum" (this is a standard VBulletin feature). VB4: forum - mysite.com/forum, blog - mysite.com/blog, articles - mysite.com In the database I found tables: convert_apps, convert_app_sessions, convert_bbcode_mediatag, convert_custom_bbcode, convert_link_pms, convert_link, convert_link_posts, convert_link_topics, convert_logs I don't see any information about matching old and new blogs and articles... where can I find this information? Obviously, we…

Hey guys, I thought I'd put this here since the 'contact us' area works for me but the client area is locked (gotta find me password again) and any help is good help. So, tonight I got told by the folks who use my forums that this error kept popping up for them: [[Template core/front/global/favico is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] So I went to check it out and was faced down with this error, now, the thing with this is that when I refresh it once, the AdminCP decides that I can access the stuff, but the formatting is scuffed. Here is an image of what is showing when it…

I've setup a new Twitter account and sorted out my developer account. I'm able to promote to Twitter but, the Tweets are not turning into or showing as links? Wasn't it the case (before), if you promoted to Twitter, it showed the image, and the Tweet acted as a link with a preview of the post? Now all I get is a Tweet with a preview of text and a hyperlink which looks awful, but it does show an image. I've also noticed when using Twitter Card Validator that no images show on my links? I can only add a sharer image which is then displayed, obviously this is no good as you want to grab the attention of users with engaging images.

Hello, in my community users are able to upload images/files to the forum, but not to private messages. But it is possible to bypass this restriction: Start a new topic in the forum and upload the image Insert the image into the topic Copy the inserted image into the clipboard Start a new private message and paste the image from the clipboard into the editor Submit the private message Cancel the new topic -> Image is now a valid attachment of the private message (tested with IPS 4.5). Is this expected behavior? Kind regards, Stefan

Hi everyone, I am forced to finally upgrade to Invision Board 4 as my hoster is going to remove PHP 5.x support and Invision Board 3.x does not seem to run on PHP 7.3 Which is fine, as I wanted to upgrade a long time ago. Unfortuately, my hoster is also removing MySQL altogether, replacing it with MariaDB. Does anyone have experience with running IP.Board 4 with MariaDB and if so which version and what are the caveats?

My forum: Link Version: v4.5.3 Formatting On the forum, when you chance the style on fonts (colours/bold) etc they don't appear to be formatting correctly and are showing up as it would in the source. Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change or could there be an issue somewhere? Auto Logging In. I have a few members, one in particular (see post) complaining that everytime he comes back to the forum he has to log in despite saving his details to keep him logged in at all times. He claims if was fine until the update. I have suggested it could be his settings/browser but he claims he isnt having the same issue on any other forum he …
