Hello, I migrated my old IPB to the latest version. Everything was working perfectly until I changed a parameter and now the site has a 500 error. The parameters I modified are on Advanced Configuration. I see an error on "Template disk cache path" : So, I modified with my new directory after migration. I also added the cron indicated on Advanced configuration to my crontab. The error disappeared but, since this modification, my IPB forum is down with error 500. When I switch to Offline mode, the users can see the maintenance message, that's all. I have no errors logs. I try to put the old value to Template disk cache path but, forum is down. …

Hi everyone, I've come to ask for your help because I've just taken over the management of our forum, and I'd like to migrate the forum from version 3.1.4 (yes I know it's been a while since there's been a major release) to a more recent version, but running on a version of php 7 not php 8. Looking around, I think I need to stop my migration to a version of ipb lower than 4.7 (if I'm not mistaken, this corresponds to the version using php 8). Is there a way to find a file with migration only up to this version? I only have the latest version of ipb from my client area. Thanks in advance for your reply.

Hi, Is it possible for guests to be able to upload image attachments when using the contact form? I enabled “Can upload attachments?” and added a 10 MB attachment allowance in my guest member group settings, but the Add Files option still doesn’t show for them when submitting a message. Also set ‘images only’ in Posting settings. Many thanks.

I am trying to create a new button for the post editor, to display affiliate links with an "ipsButton" format. This is the setup I have: I want to use the Option field to inset a URL into the ipsButton when the HTML is output, but this does not seem to happen at all for me. In fact, when I click the button nothing displays at all. This is output html (using Google Chrome inspect) after I have clicked the button in the post editor and included a URL in the option field: <p> <br> </p> If I click the button and type nothing into the Option field, it does display the rest of the HTML correctly... <p> <a data-cke-saved-href=""…

I mentioned this previously, offhandedly, in another thread but as I am seeing this condition persist and become more frequent, I thought to maybe start a thread on it to help raise awareness and possibly get it fixed. To restate, I am noticing that not all notifications are displaying, or even notifying me through the notifications alert system. I have reactions set to be marked by notification and yet a reaction that was just issued does not show up there. However, if I go to my profile, I can see that the reaction was registered there within the Activity tab. The missing reactions in question were issued and never logged by the Notifications function so it should…

Good day, We've already asked Make.com regarding this and we're waiting for their reply but we'll also ask here maybe you have a solution for this. We've setup our REST API Key to connect our Invision Community to Make.com and we tried connecting it but it says 'Community is not Available' (as you can see in the image below) and we also tried doers.academy/community and other url for that community section but still the same error. Do you have any idea for this? The reason we're connecting Invision Community to Make.com is that one there is a new user it automatically creates a forum topic for their own progress (Progress Log). Maybe there is a built-in way…

I'm testing the delete member and leave content option for a topic reply. Attached is the screen capture showing my choices. My assumption is that the member, JoeJonasBF, would be assigned to the group 'Guest' but the member display name would remain. Not so. Here is the screen capture after the member was deleted. Shouldn't the display name continue to show as JoeJonasBF?

Since june 2022 I am charging in $ without taxes ($87). This user has been able to renew today an old subcription (1 year and 9 months later) for 71,90€ in invoice #735. How it is posible? Haven't expiration old invoices? If IPS charge in € why not charge taxes too? Can I have other users in the same situation? How can search in and cancel or delete all this invoices? Thanks a lot.

Post-update to the latest monthly I got a report that clicking in to any topic resulted in a blank page. I confirmed with two different browsers. Cleared cache, disabled all plugins, tried default theme. Clubs tab results in a 500 error. Forum *topics* result in 500 error. Forum *lists* work. Events seems to work. Blogs (imported via RSS) seem to work. Gallery seems to work. Pages seem to work. Apps like Community Map seem to work. (I do have a locked task on Competitions and have opened a support topic on its home site).

Greetings to all the member that will read this topic. Last night we performed an update to the latest INVISION update, we went from 4.6 to the current one ( yea, really old one, we were closed for a while xD ).The update was performed using the built in updateter. We run into some troubles, many functions not working properly ( like marking a category as read, the user hover ) and even getting an SSL error when we try log in into the ACP. After a few searches last night i saw on the community topics that the problem can be related to SSL certificate but the certificate works fine almost over the entire domain ( minus the ACP login page or any url related to any…

Problem #1. All posts being made on the blog post here have to be approved by a moderator. They never seem to be approved unless there is a secret handshake I am missing. Problem #2. I Upgraded the forum software, enabled the Community Hive thing, went through a whole bunch of hoopla to register, etc, but when I look at my forum's feed on the Community Hive platform there is some Doris with a big black beehive like hairdo instead of the logo that I have tried to upload no less than 6 times (in both .png and .jpg formats). Problem #3. I added a tag for my community to be "discovered" but when I try to search for that tag in the discover section …

For example when using my iphone or ipad a strip of our main homepage photo will appear but the rest is remains unloaded (even if I refresh it). If I rotate the iphone landscape and then potrait again, the problem often resolves. Why would that be? Thanks if you can advise, Simon
