Hey Community!! I was wondering what's your strategy for the mailining. In a forum that has several years, usually some user email accounts tend to be removed. That means that email notifications tend to be bounced. What do you usually do? In my own experience, I was wondering if there's a way of setting up a member group that disables notifications. Just like the "Validating" step. Do you know if there is a way of setting up a new group that disables notifications or locks the sending of common emails? All ideas are welcomed, thanks!

I want to change the clubs URL from: https://site.com/clubs >> https://site.com/index.php?app=core&module=clubs&controller=directory to: https://site.com/groups >> https://site.com/index.php?app=core&module=clubs&controller=directory But I do not want to lose the old URL links. Is there a way to set a URL redirect https://site.com/clubs >> https://site.com/groups inside IPS or will I have to use Apache redirection?

Hi all, Hope you can help me with this one. I have a forum where there's a problem after posting a new post/thread. After pressing the button to submit the new post or to start the new thread the content posts just fine, but then all buttons on the site except the banner don't work. If I try to click on the reply box below the post it won't respond or open either If I refresh the page it all works fine It just seems to be after I've posted something, it doesn't seem to refresh the page properly and renders all links/buttons useless Any ideas?

Hello there people, What do you believe are some must have SEO plugins? I had one made recently regarding adding keywords automatically from topic titles and content. I also found another one that prevents topics with x words to not be indexed. What else do you believe would be helpful?

I'm working on SEO and SERPs issues and I came across duplicate URLs. From what I understand, a specific page should in general not be reachable via multiple URLs. I also learned that using a trailing slash or not is a personal choice and should not have an effect on the ranking. Also, one resource stated, that if a page is reachable (Status Code 200) with and without trailing slash, that this is likely to have no big effect on SERP but it will effect page authority as the link juice is spread over two URLs. Example: https://www.mysite.com/forums vs https://www.mysite.com/forums/ Situation For instance, on https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/ can be reached w…

How do you inspect what's causing high server loads? My host has told me it's due to a lot of processes running, but until recently my site only ran between 15 to 30%. Now it's at a crucial level all of the time.

I've got a member group that is allowed to hide their own posts, but users are reporting there is no way for them to unhide their posts (they cannot see the hidden posts). Is this a configuration/permissions issue or is this a bug? Ideally, I'd like it so they can hide/unhide their own posts, but not be able to see hidden posts by others. Is this possible?

So I've thought of using IPSs oauth system to authenticate users in an external web app. However in my last attempt to do it I ended up with the web app generating a new access token everytime a user signed in. Is that the behaviour I should expect or is there any way to get around it as it would be annoying to look at 100+ authentications tokens per user of the app. If it helps in getting a more precise answer, then I'm planning on using Laravel with its socialite package.

Let me start by saying I have pretty much no idea what I'm doing ha ha I have a forum (well two forums actually and both have this issue) where I've just checked the database tables in PHPMyadmin to see if they were InnoDB or MyISAM. On both of the forums I've found that the database tables are half and half amazingly. I have a sneaky suspicion it's something I've made a mess of a while back. The site's function with occasional glitches but to a total newbie like me on this subject I'd not know if this was having any impact. Anyway should I leave well alone or should I change all the tables to InnoDB? And will I see any difference in the way the sites are…
