I know there's a way to do this, because I distinctly remember seeing a method named something like IsMobile in one of the files while I was creating my site integration several months back. But I can't for the life of me remember where I saw it and I can't find it anywhere now having checked in the places you'd expect, such as Sessions, Members and Request. Does anyone know where the code for this is so I can look at it?

We have a need to have selected individuals read and sign legal agreements. Has anyone used IPS to capture signatures for things like non-disclosure agreements, etc.?

Since the birth of 4.0 there has been this maintenance error plaguing IPS test boards on a localhost in Wamp I have searched high and low with Invision as all the internet since I first received this message tested every possibility with no luck. The phrase that still has my concern is "This will cause significant damage to your community if not resolved." Still looking for an answer or a real lead to fixing this issue.

Hey all, I was wondering how you guys might have setup email receiving with Amazon SES? I understand we're supposed to use Piping and I have setup a ruleset that automatically uses SNS to forward the receiving email, but quite frankly it doesn't seem to work and I was wondering how the community has gone around handling this? Note I have already successfully setup email sending, so no worries there!

I noticed on one of my sites (and so did my users, unfortunately) that the dropdown menus seemed very sensitive. Unless you're very quick, they disappear after clicking before you can get to your item. I wasn't sure what to do about it and thought it was just a feature. This was backed up when the same thing happened with a new site. Sometimes it seems very bad (I've just had a complaint), other times they disappear but only if I deliberately hover away from the dropdown. However, I've just noticed that on IPS's own site, if you click, the menu permanently opens. You can click it, go to a new tab, and it's still there when you return, only disappearing once you …

I am using menu manager to do a dropdown list of external links. Once I build the menu, whenever I click the parent, and the menu drops down...as soon as I move my mouse over the dropdown list, it closes the dropdown. I need to go up again, click the parent....drop down...move mouse and the whole thing collapses again. Positioning the mouse doesn't help. It does this 5 or 6 or 8 times until suddenly it seems to think it has loaded everything ok and then I can navigate the menu fine. Takes about 30 second of 'whack a mole menu' before all is fine to select. Hard to explain to my members they need to repeatedly do it until it works. Anyone have any ideas? Could it b…

Is there a way we can switch to PayPal's Payouts API to automatically send withdrawal requests without needing something custom made? In withdrawal settings, Invision forces you to use the legacy NVP/SOAP API integration which utilizes website masspay. It's 75% cheaper to send withdrawals via Payouts API (0.25c per US transaction) than the normal mass payout which is 2% capped at $1-$20+ depending on country.

Hey people. I have a quick question regarding Subscription package images on the non-fluid wide option of a theme from IPS Focus (not specifically asking for support for that theme). So In the Subscriptions bit, the image of the packages stretch out and aren't properly aligned. For example: If I go to Firefox's Inspect Element and under ".cSubscriptionsHeader" untick the "background-size: cover;" element, it shows as follows: Now the issue is the blue-ish background. If I enable the third subscription plan it aligns perfectly as so: How can we make it so it shows like the last one (the 3 plans) with only two?

Hi I'm having trouble when updating to version 4.5. All is going fine but in the final step 5 the browser goes to step 1 and my community is still getting the message 'Updating.. check back soon....'. I'm not able to update again, my community is blocked for the admin and users. I've tried updating 4 times, with no luck. I always backup and restore the database so for now I'm stuck at version 4.4.10. After restoring the database I have to clean rediscache, otherwise there is a error 500 message. Anyone else with this problem?

Thinking of adding some adverts, as simply as possible. If I add them as images, and I do have some blocks in the sidebar and would like the adverts to be under those blocks, does anyone know the optimum width of the images/adverts? And how do different screen sizes and mobile themes then handle the ads? How to make the width fluid so it resizes with screen size? Is there a tutorial or a better plugin for this anywhere? Thanks.

Hello, Before upgrading to 4.5, I used to have a link to edit a post at the bottom of each post right there: its to simplify the user experience by avoiding to go to a menu on the top right corner... I don't remember if it was a plugin, or a customization to the theme to get that. Anyone can help?
