Using version 4.5.2, is there a setting now that changed the default setting from 4.4.x to where... "I use to click on "view new content" and go on a thread, it used to take me to the first unread post, now it just goes to the first page." I see there is a setting in your account, does this change the default behavior?

It looks like 4.5.2 is set to blast out its availability to download more generally now, and I'm seeing the notification that an update is available on our production community. How can I dismiss this notification so that it doesn't appear every time I'm logged in? It takes up half the screen on mobile and we haven't reached the point where we can upgrade at this time. The notification is interfering in being efficient at moderation and administration duties. Thanks!

Is this a setting, maybe after so many posts? It's not forum specific, 99% of my posts are in the same forum.

How do i disable the upgrade notice on the main forum, its appearing twice a day now and is really annoying. One reminder is more than enough. This new notification of 4.5.2 is very persistent, its just like getting spammed all the time. I cannot upgrade at this point in time. Thank you

I use a heavily customized skin for my site and it works fine on 4.4.10. I've been bitten in the past where I upgraded and learned I had to update my skin. With all the front page improvements to the default skin, will that mess with my custom stuff?

The upgrade completed, but now I am having a ton of javascript issues. Most links or functions don't work because it relies on javascript. The editor doesn't show up, can reply or create new topics. I uploaded files manually Ran the support tool, cleared all the caches Cron jobs are running, rebuilt proxies, still working on sitemaps Cleared datastore It is the default theme, i mean right now it couldn't be more default. All the directory permissions seem to be fine, not seeing anything else tell me otherwise. Some admin features don't seem to be working, like the Marketplace, nothing shows up, can't search, so some javascript …

I just moved to 4.5.2 from 4.4.10, and I want to use redis because memcache is deprecated. I installed redis on my dedicated server and went to enable it but see that I know have to use it for both caching and storage. I was under the impression that i could still use mysql for storage and redis for caching. Question: If I enable redis for both storage and caching, does IPS no longer use mysql?

Am I still seeing the old ACP theme after my upgrade? I assume so as it doesn't look right and the top bar looks broken. I've tried running support tool and no errors are showing.

Current IPS system miss moderation on wiki editing on database records. This feature was already requested on another topic. I would like to know if some member mess with several wiki database records and then is flagged as a spammer. The wiki database fields edited by the spammer will be deleted and the old records restored?

I'm using pagespeed nginx module from long ago with very good results. Pre 4.5 releases do not work with the defer_javascript pagespeed filter, but with 4.5 I'm able to activate this filter and almost ALL the site works but the gallery. Instead of relying on the pagespeed module, how can I change the javascript calls in order to use "defer" ? As far as I see the javascript calls are created on the fly and I cant choose which javascript libraries I want to defer. By the way, defering javascript with pagespeed makes the site faster for mobile, would be great if IPB give it a try to the defer javascript idea. Best regards

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.

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

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.
