I want to be able, just one time, merge 2 users without deleting one of them. Another way of looking at it is I want to move all the posts from one user to another user. Is there an easy way to do this? Do I comment out some code in a core file to stop the deletion, merge the 2 users and then restore the core code and if so what code and where? Any other thoughts on how I could achieve this...thanks for any help

Good day, Please forgive me if this is the wrong area to post thing. As of late, we've been seeing an uptick in users reporting to us that their downloads get to something like 70% and then will fail with a 'Error - Forbidden' message from their web browser and when they try to get the file again, the site tells them that they don't have permission to download the file. This used to be a rare occurrence, but it's been picking up (with 4 reports in the last 3 days) and our usual advice to users was to log out, clear cache/cookies, and log back in. Which we assume fixed their issue as we'd never hear back from them, despite us asking to provide a link to the file(…

Is it possible to change the color of the header of a featured post so that it matches the headers of the Forum Categories? I'd like for the featured topic "TOPICS" to have the same green gradient as the rest of the forums. Is that possible? I've poured through the guides but I'm not able to find anything.

I'd love to change the "REQUIRED" text at the top, by the title, to say "Please Use Title Case," but when I added that text to the template I found with ipsFieldRow_required it puts the text I added in both places. How can I get the text to appear in just the top one, by the Title? Thank you!

I have had a message about upgrading the Facebook App, specifically the Graph API from version 3.0. What version should I be able to upgrade to? Highest version available is v 7.0 for the API overall. What do I need to do?

There appears to be a bug if the following conditions are met: You have signature images restricted to a certain pixel dimension The user tried to edit their signature using an image with BBCode like: [URL=https://linktourl.com][IMG]https://linktoimage.png[/IMG][/URL] The user will get an error "Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions for" and won't let them save since the forum can't validate that the image is within the guidelines (even if the image does fall with the restricted dimensions). We had this issue on our forum and googling "Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions for" I found several others with the same issue. The only way w…

So I have a dedicated server, sure there are other people that I host but I've been trying to figure out why my server always feels so bogged down and it felt like it was slowly getting worse. Well I sat on my server's processes page to find out that tasks.php was taking up significant amounts of my ram and processor. And not bad right? But it wasn't just 1 tasks.php that was running for my forum. Since it runs every minute I have about 20 of these processes running for my site alone taking up 70+% processing time. What I did to see if this was a problem is I terminated all processes started by my sites account. Low and behold my site went from loading forever to a m…

I've got my forum setup on a subdomain of "forums" and I've got my main site integrated with IPS. It all works locally, but when I've gone to do it for real, the cookie from the forum is not setting accross the whole domain. Does anyone have any idea how to achieve this? I've added this to my constants.php file, but it's not recognising it off the forums subdomain: <?php define( 'COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.strongholdnation.co.uk' ); define( 'COOKIE_PREFIX', '' ); define( 'COOKIE_PATH', '/' ); P.S. Both parts are using SSL also.

I have different groups which allow/restrict access to different parts of my community. Is there any way to set what a member will first see when they log in, based on what group they're in? For example, if I set my default application to the forum, but one group doesn't have access to the forum, they log in and the first thing they see is an error message telling them they can't access this page. Is there a way to have that group see something else by default that they do have access to? Even being able to set the default application to Pages and then choosing a different page for each group would be perfectly fine, but I don't think it's possible. …

I was playing around with some YouTube embedding and locked up my home page Page Builder and now I cannot edit blocks. I assume this is because of the code I entered or a script that it calls and only affects the Home page I inserted it into as I can edit all other pages normally. There has to be a way to either turn off the page builder or manually edit the page. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to add a new OAuth2 login handler using Auth0. The first time I sign in using Auth0, it either creates a new account, or links connected accounts. This works fine. The problem I'm experiencing is when I try to sign in for a second time. Upon being redirected back to my Invision Community, I get an error message saying that the email has already been taken. "error": { "message": "{\"errors\":{\"email\":[\"has already been taken\"]}}", "oauthError": "access_denied", "type": "oauth-authorization" }, For reference, we have two login methods active: Standard and Auth0. This error happens for both pre-existing and newly crea…

I have a few of these groups promotion rules in place but I've never done a time-based one. Now I'd need to do the following: Members who belong to primary group A, with a post count of 100 and who have posted in the last week, get a secondary group assigned. Those same members must lose the secondary group when they haven't posted in the last week. (And they recover it when they post and so on) So, is it correct to think that I need 2 separate rules? One assigns the secondary group to members of primary group A with a post count of 100 and who have posted in the last week (or 7 days). The other, removes the secondary group to members who haven't …
