Our website is experiencing a 500 error. We hired someone to look at that and they found out that the table core_sessions is missing from our database. Can anyone provide me with the table structure, anything? I really have no idea how to proceed here. I can't access the admin panel either.

I'm no techie, that's for sure. And this latest blunder confirms this. But I hosed my board trying to upgrade from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 I originally contacted Invision support but they don't assist with upgrades, so I was left to my own devices. Well, something(s) went wrong and now my board is inaccessible. Can someone help get my board back online? Thank you.

Considering the possibility of a group buy feature on the forum. There are wordpress options available for this, but it would be quite cool if this were integrated into IPS. Can't see anything in the market place though. Is this something others might be interested in if I were to commission an app by @DawPi or someone else?

I didn't see any documentation for the album API to create or edit existing albums, only GET them. Do any undocumented endpoints exist to create new Albums? I'd like to integrate this functionality with my application.

I converted my forums a couple of months ago and redirect is working great except for 1 page. Google adsense is continuously looking for: www.mydomain.org/forum/index.php?action=login which is from my old SMF forum. However the /forum directory does not exist anymore, so it will be redirected by IPS to: https://www.mydomain.org/forum/index.php?action=login This looks the same but generates a Page does not Exist errorcode: 1S160/2 from IPS. In spite of the fact that there are absolutely no ads on a not found page, Adsense complaints about the "valuable inventory: no content" even after a rating this appears. So I thought, maybe I can redirect …

Hi there, I have a few questions about the SSO plugin. We recently transferred all the members from IPB to Wordpress. It included their email address and username. When I tested my account out, it changed my username in the forum to my first and last name in that shows up in Wordpress (both accounts share the same email address). 1.) I'm wondering why it did this? I was under the impression it would know to keep the username. I disabled it, but I don't want this happening to other users. 2.) When the SSO plugin is enabled and someone goes to register, does it create them an account in Wordpress AND Invision Power Board? Or just Wordpress? …

I have recently discovered that reported content on my forum changes if a member edits out what they wrote. This is problematic and wanted to know if there was a setting that could tick this off? I want members to be able to edit their own content but reports should be a quote from that moment it was reported.

Hi all, one of you team members asked me how he could post a link which is only visible to registered members or more advanced, only for members of a specific group. The post itself should be visible to all users. I've found no answer so far but maybe there is a clever solution out there 😉 Thanks in advance Chris

Does anybody else find this on v4.4.x It wasn't like this on 4.3. When I paste an instagram link I now have to wait around 10 seconds for it to auto-embed it, it used to be pretty much instant. Any ideas?

Hey guys. I can't for the life of me figure out where plugins' configuration pages are when they've been installed. This IPS 4.x plugin/application install method is really confusing me as on IP.Board 3.x it was easy to find. Could some people point me in the right direction? Thanks

I am trying to update to version 4.4.4 but step 2 fails. Asks me to manually enter Invision Client Area Email Address and password and it fails every time. Yes, I went to the client area and logged in with the same credentials so I know it's not me! Anyone experience this or should I just ignore this and wait for 4.4.5?

Hi all, For gallery, members have asked about moving images between albums. So far, I can only find this as a moderator function, and even that appears broken (when moving images between albums, only the moderators' own albums are shown). Is there a way to enable it so that members can move images between their own albums without being moderators and able to move other's images? Thanks!

Hi I’m planning on uploading a large number of images into my gallery which I want to use within my website. Is there a way to stop them from appearing in the gallery feed? I’m conscious that a bulk upload would annoy some when their activity feed becomes clogged! many thanks

I have a custom profile field that defined as a date field. Since the last upgrade (4.4.2) I've noticed that when displayed on the users profile, it's displayed properly mm/dd/yyyy but when it's displayed under the users information on a post, it's showing the unix epoch date. I don't know if it was the last update that did it or the one before but it just recently started. Any thoughts?
