The best language is automatically selected for users based on their browser settings. Is there any way to override this and present the site in the default language?

I was wondering how to create a different colour set depending on what group someone is in. So say member group 3, the user photo has a border that's blue but people in group 5 have a border of red, etc. Would this require a script or can I edit the html and css to do this? IPS4 Example: https://codepen.io/ShadowLycan/pen/wOpLjX?editors=1100

I upgraded to the latest version earlier this week. Everything went smoothly. Forum has been up and running for several days with no problems. Woke up this morning to a forum crash. 😞 Checked the diagnostic tool in Admin/Support, it reported no errors, so I ran a MySQL database repair which usually fixes most problems. However, now when I try to view my forums, I get this error message: [[Template core/front/global/globalTemplate is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] The big problem now is I am also locked out of AdminCP! All I see when I log in is this: e…

In the AdminCP, on the Members list page, it looks like this: I have a custom profile field that members fill out during registration. Is there any way to have that field's data shown on this page just like Display Name, Email Address, Joined, Group and IP Address are shown? Thanks.

reCAPTCHA banned in China. Solution: You may try recaptcha.net. It's offical and accessible from China. Just change https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js?render=explicit to https://recaptcha.net/recaptcha/api.js?render=explicit in front end, and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify to https://recaptcha.net/recaptcha/api/siteverify in back end, and it should work as expected.

How to target the footer links? I wish to change the footer links color in the specific page. I'm able to just change the background image for a specific forum (say pageid=6): [data-pageapp="forums"][data-pagecontroller="forums"][data-pageid="6"] {background: url({resource="Seven Planets.jpg" app="forums" location="front"}) no-repeat center top scroll #000; height: 100%; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: center top;background-blend-mode:screen; background-size: cover; } How to change the footer links color for just that page? I tried words like footerlinks, elfooterlinks, navlang, but none of them worked.

I'm able to target the header and make a gradient shift for two colors: #ipsLayout_header>Header{background: linear-gradient(#3e6eb2, #144580)} I'm able to target the whole background: body{background: url({resource="whatevername.jpg" app="forums" location="front"}) no-repeat center top scroll #000; height: 100%; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: center top; background-blend-mode:screen; background-size: cover; } I am unable to target JUST the home/index page (but not the sub-forum pages). I tried combinations of #ipsLayout_body, Home, container, contentArea, content, etc. to no avail, because these words appear in every pa…

Hi If you have enabled Facebook log in pre 4.2 and have a corresponding app, should you upgrade that app in Facebook... or create a new app from scratch? Previously when I tried this on migration to 4, the old app would not work. I had to create a new app, but that had it's own problems. For example, what do you do about old app users? Can you easily migrate them? Any experience with this would be very helpful. Cheers John

Hey I was contacted today by Paypal business about the introduction of two-factor authentication. They plan to move all customers over asap. It requires the integration of a free plugin from cardinal commerce. Info here: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/psd2 Has anyone else been contacted? Is integration planned or supported by invision? If so, when? What should Paypal users do? If not, what are the recommendations from Invision? My understanding is that this is a compulsory move by Paypal. Cheers John

Hi everyone, I am looking for someone who can help me fix my REST & OAuth error. I have done all the steps required, but it keeps showing me this: The API endpoint is not giving the expected response. Check you followed the instructions correctly. The URL being tested is: https://forum.grinderscape.org/api/index.php?/core/hello In order to use the REST API: Download this file. Upload it to the /api folder in your site's directory (/home/forum/public_html/api). Rename it to '.htaccess' (with no file name). I am certainly sure I have done all the steps right, but still shows this. If you go to the link above it throws a 4…

Hi, This task takes hours for me. Some of those hours the upgrade task want to spend on this. For me this process means 2-3 hours, just spent on this task: This task seems to work exclusively on a cache-table, given it's name core_tags_cache from the upgrade file. Will it break anything to just empty this table? Because I presume the content in these cache-tables will be rebuilt if they don't exist? Or is it necessary for something (and not really a cache table?) This is what the task actually does, from: applications/core/setup/upg_101024/upgrade.php /** * We never cleaned up core_tags_cache with previous upgrades * * @return array If…

Maybe I am missing it, so my apologies. I understand how the tags work, however, how to the prefixes work? I see nowhere to type in or select a pre-defined prefix. Thanks in advance!
