Hi all, I just reached out to this plugin's developer (Stuart) only moments ago but thought I would post this here in case any you may have the answer sooner. I am wondering if there is a way for users to change their "display names" themselves through Invision Board. Whenever I click on "change display name" when logged in as one of my dummy users, the page redirects to Wordpress/Memberpress. Is there a way around this? Thanks, Kaitlin

We have over 800 articles made with Pages. After upgrade from 3.4.X to 4.4.X IPS has changed the canonical URL of the articles. Old: http://example.com/database/category/article New: http://example.com/database/category/article/ But there is no redirect, both URLs serve the same content. We experience SEO difficulties serving same content under different URLs. How do we create a 301 redirect for the old URLs?

Hi. I'm wondering if someone could help me out with something. It's been a while since I last used/played with IPS and so many versions have come out since. On the older versions, there used to be an option to change the name of your admin directory and apply a .htaccess protected file to it so it would prompt anyone for a username and password for that directory. The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to find it on this newer version so I'm asking if anyone is able to show me how to do this still. Thank you.

I detected many untranslated phrases and thought about a efficient way to translate them on my own. The Google-translater quality increased over time, but it is laborious to c&p every single phrase between the the browser windows. Is there a better way, a tool maybe, to copy a phrase into clipboard, let it translate and paste directly into the form? How do you manage this if you run a non-english board? Thank you for any hints.

If I enable it then after I close the browser and re-open it is no longer enabled. Same here on the Invision site. It works on Chrome.

Hi, I'd like to use the "Record Feed" widget on a page of my site, but with records from multiple databases. I have several Pages database, let's say database A with categories A1 and A2 and database B with categories B1, B2 and B3. I'd like to have a widget block showing the latest entries of only some categories of several databases, like for instance the latest entries of a A1+B2+B3. For forums, the Topic Feed widget allows to do that by freely selecting which (sub)forums will be taken into account. As far as I could observe, the default Record Feed widget does not allow for a similar mixed content. Are you aware of documented ways to have the same funct…

Greetings! I am going to update my 3.4.8 forum to 4.4.x very soon.. When I do this, I will be taking the existing forum offline and upgrading it on a new server, and when the upgrade is complete I will be switching DNS for the domain to the new server. However, I'd much prefer to leave the live forum online, but in a "read only" state. That is, allow members to still browse and read posts, but not enter any new replies. I need to remove the "Reply Topics", "Start Topics", and "Upload" permissions from all the permission masks (except Admin, #4) for each forum, except for one forum in particular (id #26, which is an Announcements forum). I'm not familiar wi…

Hi, We have several reports from our users of emails not be delivered. (e.g. notification emails from our forum), including to Gmail. I understand some go to the Spam folder. We use our own SMTP server. We are not blacklisted and we use SPF, though we have not yet implemented DKIM or DMARC. I understand in this day and age and considering the volume of legitimate emails we send, we should ideally be using a third party trusted SMTP relay such as SendGrid, Mailgun etc. Problem is some are either expensive or do not accept PayPal. Does anyone recommend a SMTP relay service that is inexpensive (less than $25 USD pcm) and also accepts PayPal? Thanks R…

My forum runs on a VPS and it's running out of space. I've maxed out the 100 GB limit. In any case, I am wondering if I add a second disk to the server if I can use that to store uploads? Does anyone know if this is possible? Basically use: /dev/sdb1 for uploads.

Hello everyone, if you want to know if there is a plugin or a system that allows me to set the leaderboard in this way: every user votes the others, the ranking must be monthly starting from the first day of the month and ending the last day of the month and to be updated every day, the rating should be cumulative (if on Monday I have 10, Tuesday 15 .. etc and not zero every day). It would also be optimal that the ranking is based on the assignment of a precise reaction (which I have already created next to the like etc) and not of all the reactions. in fact, I would like users every month to vote for the best post of the month in a specific section, so …

Hey Everyone, So I followed the directions to setting up the Maps API for Google Maps for my IPB Community. However, no matter what restrictions (or, no restrictions) I put on the API. it tells me the following error in IPB. " This API project is not authorized to use this API." I have deleted the key and recreated it with no restrictions (which, I know is not recommended) however, even then it still rejects the key. Am I missing something blatantly obvious?

Hi, this is what I am investigating right now. We have two languages on our site. English is only used in ACP and (was) generally disabled for the users. We do not have any English content and English interface makes no sense for us. Somedays we have experienced a sudden fall in Google organic search traffic. Nothing has changed on the website so far. Except one thing: a week before it happened, IPS support has investigated an issue on our site and enabled English for it. They did not disabled it after all and we have not noticed it. What has happened? I assume that Google visited our site and started to see it half-English half-non-English. Interface was …
