A new member on my forums want me to give them a url avatar. I went in the admin CP to sdo so, and oddly the option for URL avatars is gone. I can only upload. So How do I get back the option to add URL avatars?

I recall there was a link in the Marketplace for that after you go in to the Addon/Theme etc you can click and go to the support thread for that one item. I don't seem to find it anymore on the Marketplace addon/theme items page anymore. I had to go to the user account, than find the listing for the item then see if there a forms already made and then click on it to post a question to the item and/or get up. Now I see I have to search for items in the IPS Marketplace Topics and was not sure what up. Wouldn't it be better to keep the Marketplace item link to that thread?

Is there a way to send out a Bulk mail to users from a specific region? I would like to send out a blurb to users in a geographical area to let them know of new features that may be something of interest to them. Is there any way to group members then filter them? Any plugins that help do this?

I noticed something weird today. I'm importing shortnews from several external sites to a database. The author is set to my account because the fake account I've set up for the import didn't work at all, it always used mine (UserID 1). https://xboxhub.com/shortnews/xbox-series-x-inoffizielles-unboxing-der-konsole-r119/ Later I noticed other imports had other authors, regular members that can't even create articles in that database at all... https://xboxhub.com/shortnews/yakuza-like-a-dragon-xbox-series-x-gameplay-videos-veröffentlicht-r125/ https://xboxhub.com/shortnews/xbox-series-x-–-erstes-unboxing-aufgetaucht-r127/ Looks to me like that are th…

Hello, I was wondering how others handle giving credit to images used in Invision Community as a whole, but mostly in records in the Pages app. We post a lot of news articles and many are sourced from other news articles to put an article together and citing these sources is easy if needed, but images seem to be a bit more difficult. Most articles on other software will cite the image credit directly below the image, but there does not seem to be a great way to do this in Invision. I was wondering how others have overcome this issue. Do you just drop the credit in the bottom of the article, or have you come up with a better way? Yes, we do try to use custom …

Hi, does anyone have this problem before I put it in for a support ticket. We've had a couple of instances now of people trying to send messages using the PM system but in fact it generates multiple messages – may be as many as 10 – including an error message saying that you can only send one message per minute.

Hello, I created iin the Pages/CMS a news custom block with the source "plugin" from the category "System -> User". In the conditions I checked the "Has birthday this month". This block works well and shows all members who have birthday this month. Thats great. But one thing do I miss: At the moment the block show the member name, last visited and the registration date. But it would be great to show the birthday date insted of last visited and registered date. I looked at the template but there I have no idea how to achiev this! Any ideas? Thanks Benny

Hello, Tried to do a test migration from vb4. As a result, attachments were not transferred 🤥 VB4: forum - mysite.com/forum, blog - mysite.com/blog, articles - mysite.com IPS Community Suite 4.5.3: test.mysite.com Subdomain and main domain - on the same server. Questions: 1. How to specify path to Gallery Images? I tried to copy "mysite.com/forum/Uploads" to "test.mysite,com/Uploads2" and specify "/Uploads2", but it does not work, albums are empty. 2. How to specify path to forum attachments? There are no such settings in the migrator. I would be grateful for your help.

Hey there, I have a quick question. I have an ad code that is preventing the Emoji menu in the tool bar from opening. Also, the "spoiler" feature won't display the hidden content when the ad code is enabled. The ad company has tried to figure out (so they claim) what the issue is, but since July I've been told ~they're working on it,~ but to no avail. Wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how I can fix this maybe via the IPB side (since the ad company isn't being very useful). I don't want to remove the ad because it performs decently. By the way, whenever I disable this ad placement, the Emoji menu and spoiler features begin to work again. W…

On my site when I set Maximum storage for each submission to 2000 it shows this When I set that setting as unlimited, it shows as this My question is where is that set as 30mb? I can't find it anywherre. I would rather just have the max total size of 1.95mb showing. I don't see the need for it to display twice. Most sites I've checked don't show max file size and max total size.

In IP.Board 3.4.x, moderators were assigned directly to forums, and it was easy to see which moderators you had in each forum. In IP.Board 4.x, I cannot for the life of me find a way to see which moderators are assigned any given forum. I just created a sub-forum and want to assign the same moderators as parent forum. However, damned if I know who they are. Looks like I will have to individually view some 50+ moderators in order to find the one assigned to this particular forum. If that's true, that seems like a big deficiency to me, especially if you run a large forum with tons of moderators. Please someone show me a way to do this? Thank you, ..Al

Somehow I have seemed to accidentally change the only admin user on our site to a different user group, and now I can no longer access my Admin CP. How can I regain access to my Admin CP? Edit: Problem has been solved by setting the group id for the profile to 4 in core_members through phpmyadmin.

I apologise in advance for this one. I am sure I have seen a setting somewhere where I can set a number of posts that will need to be made in order for a member to use the PM system. I have had a few members join lately with the sole intention of targeting certain members of my forum by PM. By introducing a number of posts that need to be made, thus contributing and then allowing the PM system to be used, would be helpful and may minimise the issue. It would also save me adding another member group and restricting the PMs to zero. As I say, I am sure I have not dreamt it, but have seen this option, somewhere ? Any help, appreciated.
