Is there a place to change the colour of this; 'Existing User Sign In' - which appears top right on the main header? I'm setting our header to almost white, which then means we can't read this white text. I've found colour changes for almost everything else in the theme editor, bar this piece of text, or is it a button? either way can't locate where to change it! ?

I purchased a self-hosting Invision license yesterday and installed it on my current server. I then went to transfer my database from vBulletin to Invision, but my host won't allow it because it is over 1GB. Now I'm wishing I just signed up for the Cloud option with Invision. I contacted Invision because I figured they could just deactivate my self-hosted license and move me over to Cloud. But they said because I downloaded the software, they cant switch me from self-hosted to Cloud, unless I wanted to just waste the $300 I spent yesterday. Disappointing. Long story short - any suggestions for a host who allows transfers of databases over 1GB and …

One of my moderators incorrectly flagged a long-time user as a spammer. Now all of his content (7,000+ messages) is gone. Is there a way to restore this content, or is it gone forever?

It doesn't tell you where to put the Database file. Do you just put it on the same server as your Invision install and the converter app will find it? A video would go a long way if Invision were to want to help improve their instructions.

When selecting "search" from the IPS menu I'm taken to "Content Search". I'd like to create a menu option for members to select so that they are taken directly to the Member search instead. Here's a screen shot of the default search page. The member search tab is there. Is there a direct link that I can create a menu option to take members directly to member search?

Hi, I have some forum memberships setup as 'products' with a renewal term , they are handled by paypal with billing agreements. They are $15 per year but i want to increase to $20 per year. My question is , if i just go in and adjust the product price to $20 - how does this affect all the current members who have purchased? what happens when it comes to renewal for $20 but they have billing agreements for $15 - does the system break or paypal produce an error, Should i just create a new product for the $20 and then give people the option to upgrade from their existing membership $15 to this new one - does that create a new billing agreement or edit the e…

Anyway to increase the number here: https://invisioncommunity.com/leaderboard/ So it shows top 8 for example? I don't feel 4 is enough to encourage a bit of competition between the members. The forum index widget only shows 4 too, which would be nice to increase. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I was wondering if there was a way to edit my curl GET request to the REST API to only target a specific piece of member data? For example, "https://bastionrp.com/api/core/members/26/?key={REDACTED}" returns this: "id": 26, "name": "Jimmy", "title": null, "timeZone": "America\/New_York", "formattedName": "<span class=\"Administrator Staff\"><i class=\"fa fa-shield\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Jimmy<\/span>", "primaryGroup": { "id": 20, "name": "Administrator", "formattedName": "<span class=\"Administrator Staff\"><…

Good morning, being new I run into an error that doesnt tell me something: It seems to appear when someone tries to upload content. The group settings for member is unlimited, though there seems to be a limit of 511 MB? The upload fails. I run the board as a cloud service so I cannot check server settings - only ACP. Where would I change limits for members? The current setup is Thank you, Marcs

Just wondering how to achieve the above. I have disabled the option for guests to read blogs, but by clicking on a link shown in a sidebar still allows them to read the content. Some of my members post rather personal stuff in their blogs only for members to read, not for general consumption. Any suggestions?

We use the ⭐emoji on our forum to rate quality of certain downloads/links . We found that there's a 75 emoji limit, which we can hit in a single post if we're rating a lot of items. Is there some place this can be increased?

Good evening everybody, maybe I simply haven't found the setting yet and the search function couldn't help me with this. My question is, is it possible to hide the complete clubs page from guests? I thought it's better to ask, maybe there is already an existing addon before I code something on my own 😄 Best regards

Hi all, I have a member that was deleted from the board back in 2013. The posts were left behind as guest user. That user asks if the individual posts from the account which are still visible in the forum can be deleted (gdpr etc). Is this possible when the account is already removed? If it is, how?

Hi Guys - I have two versions of the default IPS theme. One shows ads and the other is for subscribers and it doesn't show ads. Do do this I create blocks and don't give the subscribers permission to view the blocks. This work, but still loads the block code on all themes. Question: Is there a way to disable blocks per theme? I want to show a custom block on the default theme like usual. When I switch to the subscriber theme and delete the block, it deletes it from showing on the default theme as well. Would love to select blocks per theme.
