For months now I've seen a growing number of contact us messages like the one below. Notice the unique codes used. I suspect that what is going on is that hackers are probing to see if they can manipulate the forum to send spam, thus the unique identifiers they are including in the content. I recently patched my forum with the latest update that included an update intended to stop spam from being sent via the share article feature. I guess I am wondering if they could be using the contact us form to be sending spam? I'd like to hear from others who have been seeing similar contact us messages.

Upgraded last night. Background processes have been running for over 12 hours. Still not done. Is something stuck? I do have 30 or so GBs of images. Tried to run manually, got this: Sorry, you do not have permission for that! 1S111/1 Data too long for column 'reply_content' at row 1

Since I upgraded to 4.5 when adding an imagelink into a post the image does not show up but shows a link instead (see attachment). The images previously posted before the upgrade all show. Any idea why this happening and how to change this?

Am I missing something, or there is no information about mobile apps for iPhone and Android, whatsoever? I upgraded to 4.5.2. thinking that mobile apps are available, now I'm finding out that I first need to be manually approved, and then I can use mobile app. OK, no problem. However, on iPhone, mobile app is just a mobile app for invisioncommunity.com Are you telling me that mobile app functionality is still off? Can someone shed some light on this subject? Can you guys be more direct about this. I would really appreciate that. Thanks.

Admin CP isnt letting me sign into marketplace to upgrade addons and plugins and such. In fact the layout is all scuffed: In the past you could clear cache with the support tool, but that doesnt seem to work anymore. Also you used to be able to set the admincp theme, is that deprecated? Having a few issues after the update, have disabled all addons and plugins but in particular, permissions dont seem to be working at all? Also when you click on links, it just appends the url params with #actionName

Good morning guys, recently imported a database into another site and everything was fine as usual, only the modified form template was missing. Is this a bug or are form templates not meant to export? Best regards

We have an issue where we get a 500 server error when changing a password for a member since upgrading to 4.5. It happens both from ACP and member account settings page. Does anyone else see this on 4.5? Have a ticket open, but thought I'd quickly gauge if others are seeing it.

Can I set this as take me to comments I haven't read by default? I don't want open normally as default, since I've used a hook for the past 4 years to go to latest comment. Otherwise I've got to ask 1000's of members to physically go into their settings to change it.

- - > I'm Trying to verify my domain for Google's G suite. Google wants me to upload an html file they gave me to verify I own the site. Sounds easy, but I have the cloud version and pretty much don't see how to do this in the interface. I can add graphics, content, databases, etc, etc. But how do upload an html file? I've built the entire site/community using the built in wysiwyg tools, yet I don't know code or apparently some basics. Thanks will trade someone for graphics help. 🙂

Upgraded to version 4.5. I would like to put the "edit" link back next to the "quote" link at the bottom of posts. My forum members aren't smart enough to click the 3 dots to find it in the menu no matter how many times I tell them. Is there an option in the ACP for restoring the edit link or some other way easily doing it? Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this has been asked a dozen times already. I can't seem to find any information on it.

Hello, Upgraded my forum to the latest version recently and I really enjoyed all the changes. However when I associated my plugins with the marketplace I realized they say "locked". I cannot disable them to members nor delete them. Before I could delete them if I didn't see a use in them any longer... and I really appreciated that option. Is there any option to disable them that I am not seeing?

So I'm trying to make a dark theme for our site, and while editing the colors using the "easy mode" color picker (Which is absolutely AWESOME!!) I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out what controlled the color of the notification settings expanded background (Marked red in the screenshot): Does anyone know how to (or if at all possible) change that color? I would much rather do that without editing the css, since moving to 4.5 really F'ed things up in our edited theme and we had to make a new one from pretty much scratch. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Hi there, I am trying to learn how to use the API with IPS but I can't even the basics to work. I follow the instructions on: https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api/index/ and used the sample code, but when I run it I got an error 404. If I visit my board with the /api/core/hello end point I am also unable to access it, (404) I am currently running IPB 4.5.2 Not sure if it makes a difference, but if I go to my API Reference my results are: https://community.domain.com/api/index.php?/end point. Ex: /api/index.php?/nexus/transactions I'd appreciate all the help that I can get! Thanks for your time and help. Edi…
