To prevent an increasing amount of forums on the board index, I'd like to have an archive accessible through a link in the menu. Any way this can be done?

**Update** Issue: All of my Profile Fields' values were showing up as "Array" after updating to 4.4.4 from 4.3.x. As it turns out, I just needed to update the Enhanced Profile Blocks plugin.

Nearly two weeks ago I migrated my forum from 3.4.8 to 4.4.4. Now that the background tasks have finished running, my web server still has a pretty high load. Looks like php-cgi is responsible for this--load is averaging around 4.0. On IP.Board 3.x this was generally below 1.0 and it was running on a slower server to boot (I moved the site to a new server at the same time as the forum upgrade). Additionally, I was running PHP 5.7 before and now I'm running 7.2. And MySQL is also a much newer version, so both of those should be faster than the old versions of PHP and MySQL I was using. And finally, the new server is running on an NVMe SSD blade, so disk access should …

Hello, I set up a new database having a main category and one sub category. I created 3 entries, all are inside the sub category (Webentwicklung). Record listing is activated for all categories. When I select the main category the listing header says that there are 3 entries in the category ("3 Experten in dieser Kategorie"), but no items show up. Is this a bug? Either the listing header should say "0 entries" or list all entries including sub categories. How can I manage it to see all entries including sub categories? (I tested version 4.3.6 & 4.4.4.)

On my 3.4.8 forum I was able to use Sphinx to index two-character search terms. I've now jumped to 4.4.x, and I'd like to do that again. I'm currently using MySQL (and will soon be switching to MariaDB) and I know I can set innodb_ft_min_token_size in the my.cnf configuration file and rebuild the search index and that should work. However, I'd like to know how to do this with Elasticsearch. Looking through the code in /system/Content/Search, I see how this works when doing MySQL queries, but I do not know the mechanics of how the search index is created with Elasticsearch, and how the queries are executed. It all looks rather complicated, and nothing obvious has…

Hi, I have recently moved from VBulletin to InVision and it's a massive improvement. One of the few decent things on VBulletin was the conditional code to show something to certain user groups. I want to show larger adverts to guests but not to registered users (one of the benefits of membership being you get less adverts). However, the adverts are called from a script in the header (not from a Custom HTML Widget). Is there any way of adding code to the header script to make it appear for guests only? Something along the lines of the way VBulletin did it which was roughly: <if user belongs to group ="guests" then show else hide> code <…

Invision 3.4.x had an attachment icon displayed to the left of topics that had one or more attachments. If you clicked on the icon, you'd get a nice popup that would display all the attachments in the thread. You could even open this link in a new window to more easily see everything. Is this completely missing from Invision 4.x? I just moved my forum from 3.x to 4.x, and my members are wondering what happened to this, as am I. My forum is very attachment heavy (lots of images in threads, and lots of software development whose threads typically have many attachments), so it's disappointing if this has been removed. If this is missing, has anyone written a plugin…

fb:app_id hasn't been included in the meta tags. Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog. Otherwise, the default app id( 966242223397117 ) will be assigned. 1. https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/ 2. put this url and debug http://hoitajat.net/forums/topic/17458-minkälaista-työaikaa-teet-ensihoidossa/ App id is specified in ACP settings and at global template.

Is it possible to alter the email sent out when you receive a reaction to include the type of reaction? Previously with 3.x, you'd received an email, "{username} liked a post you made in ". Now you just get a very generic, "Someone reacted to a post in a topic". Not only does it not include the topic, but you don't know what the reaction is until you go and view the post. Would like to see wording similar to the 3.x emails, including the topic name. So, more like, "{username} reacted to a post in with {reaction text} reaction", where {reaction text} is "Thanks," "Like", "Sad", "Haha", or "Confused". I've noticed many generic email titles that I'd like to change.…

Apologize if this is an easy question, but I can't figure it out. I used the ADMIN Control Panel, Menu Manager to reorder my menus. For example I moved Forums, Gallery, Calendar from under Browse, to each to be at the top level as a Tab... After I did this, on my PC (Chrome, FireFox) I simply click on the Tab and it goes to the right section. HOWEVER, when I use my iPad (Chrome, Safari) I have to click (twice) to make the selection work. What did I change, and how can I fix this? Can anyone else re-create? Thanks in advance -

Since updating to IPS 4.4, my board's default avatars seem to be M.I.A.! They appear on the main page, when the Latest Thread is displayed, however, when viewing a topic, they are missing. And, it is only for the default avatars (a.k.a. no avatar uploaded). Is there any way to restore them? Again, this only happened once I updated to IPS 4.4! This is all you can see within the topic, per post:

Good Morning Everyone, I just had a quick question. Is it possible to rotate the Comments and Reviews tab, so when both are enabled in the calendar, the comments one is first? Right now the reviews is first and reviews opens up first by default. I would like for it to be opposite. Thanks! 🙂

Hey all, so I have the login integration working fine, however, two issues. First, it allows the member to choose to use their Facebook profile picture as well as their Facebook cover photo. If I select to use both, the profile picture displays fine, however, the cover photo does not display. Thoughts? Lastly, if you log out so that you no longer are signed in via Facebook, should the profile picture still display for the user or should it go back to the default profile image? I would think it would remove anything that it got from Facebook if the accounts are no longer associated...no? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone, I have a support call logged for this, but I am wondering if anyone has encountered an issue where the core system auto updates but the applications do not? I recently tested the 4.4.4 update and it worked fine, went to run it in prod and it failed. Forums, Calendar and Converter are locked because they do no match the System version. Anyone have any bright ideas? I have tried to upload new versions of Forums and Calendar but they expect TAR files, which are nowhere to be found. I tried downloading the zip from Members area, uploaded to site, unzipped and tried running that. It also failed.
