The error message "Invalid JSON string:" appears everywhere in the AdminCP. I'm using php-fpm 7.4.1, php-json is up to date (CentOS 7, nginx). The error or system logs are empty Edit: BTW, the message boxes are also not working

I have old forum topics, that when kept open for while, report all already displayed replies as new replies to load – even though everything was posted many years ago. I’m trying to get to the bottom of this but I just can’t find the reason. What is the query that is executed in the background? I would assume it checks the current timestamp against the timestamps of posts in that topic, but the post timestamps all look okay in the database and are way in the past.

Does IPS 4.4.x have the feature of Topic Multi-Moderation? The kind of TMM I am talking about is being able to select pre-defined post replies and post automatically.

Hello, I repeat my question here, because I must have been wrong in the forum for the first, do not hesitate to delete the one that is not in the right section 😚 Hello, it's me again, sorry, but I have another concern that bothers me a lot about RSS feeds. In fact only the new topics appear, for that to change, you have to recreate another topic, suddenly the RSS feed does not change often. Me, I would have liked that the titles change, that the flow is updated, each time there is a new message in a topic, and there it is not the case. Another problem, the flow does not update immediately, it takes a while, suddenly, it is not very responsive…

Hey there, quick question. I want to import a list of members from Wordpress to IPB. The list has their username and email address that they registered to my Wordpress site. What happens if there are duplicate usernames/email addresses? What does IPB do? Does it not add them, change their username? Just curious what happens before I pull the trigger. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Previously, I was able to do an online upgrade without any issues throw my admin page. However, with the latest update -- 4.4.9.1 -- I get the following error: I have manually downloaded the update file folder -- ips_bc58f -- and uploaded it to the path on my server where my forum is located. Where can I look for error logs or info to point me into the direction on how to fix this issue? I wonder if it s a server permission issue? Thanks!

I want to offer a free subscription to those who have posted X number of articles in the database or posts. Is there a way I can pull a list of members with a breakdown of content count next to their names? (articles, posts, comments, etc)? Currently I can only find this data IF I go member by member, and click on content. For example, I can't see how many database records someone has done. When i go to the database in ACP, and choose database / "Manage Records", there is no sortable field for "members". (only title, date and category). Is anyone interested in developing a utility tool for this? Thanks.

I moved to a different server yesterday, some people can't access the site. They say they get a permission error or a 404 error. I changed the name servers early Friday morning, some say they still can't access the site today, it should have propagated by now, no? It's not a trick or gimmick to get you to join, but since this is an international site, could I impose on a few of you to see if you can access it? It seems some of the people with an issue are slowly getting in. https://squarewheelscycling.com/index.php Thanks

Dear community members and contributors, I hope that you will be able to help me, as I cannot seem to figure out where my issues comes from. I own an IPB 4.4 community with around 5000 topics (not sure whether this is relevant, though). As this is a french-speaking community, topics' titles may contain special characters. Database is on a MariaDB 10.2.6 container, with all varchar columns on a utf8mb4_unicode_ci character set. Issue #1 ✅ If I run the MySQL query below, it returns 12 results. select tid, title from ibf_forums_topics where title like '%Actualit%'; ✅ If I search topics with the characters "Actualit" in the title, it return…

Good morning everybody, what I am trying to do is, I want to assign a theme to an application. So when I go to page xy, the theme changes to ID2 and when I go back to the forum or whatever, it automatically switches back to the standard theme, for example ID1. Usually this is no problem and works fine when I simply add \IPS\Theme::switchTheme(2); to the Application.php, but in this case it's not possible, because the file is cubed. I already tried and searched the forums but sadly didn't get it to work properly yet. Don't know if it's the conditional (\IPS\Dispatcher::i()->application->directory === 'theapp') or an issue with my hook settings at all. …

From "manual" I need to remove only one line from method, аll other code does not change. Real example - code hook for \IPS\core\modules\front\system\notifications, manage() method, remove code \IPS\Db::i()->update( 'core_notifications', array( 'read_time' => time() ), array( '`member`=?', \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ) ) I can't call the parent method because update() will work. I can't not copy the code to hook because I need the functionality of the parent method. How do you do this without violating these rules?

Hey there, When a user first logs in, they're asked to complete their profile with the progress bar. Love that. However, when I tested it out... I would complete the first step in the profile process... when I clicked "next" to go to the next step, it would take me back to the main page of my forum without getting any closer to completing the process. Any idea why that could be happening?

Hello, I have the option enabled where guests can comment before registration, but on Articles, their comments show without having to register. It just simply allows them to comment without an account or asking them to register. Is there a way to either: Disable the option for guests to comment on Articles or They can comment, but are asked to register Thank you! https://www.breatheheavy.com/exhale/index.php?/news/kesha/breaking-judge-rules-kesha-defamed-dr-luke-r9/
