So I haven't heard from support on this so any suggestions in the meantime much appreciated. I updated my forums from 4.3.6 to 4.4.1 and it turned into a load of garbled coding so I've reverted back to original files and database from 24 hours prior. Now all I get is: We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now. Invalid TemplateYou can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later. http://unofficialmills.co.uk/forums/ EDIT: I've rolled back to another day and it seems to be back.

I'm pretty weak at the front-end side. I can sometimes create something in CodePen or JSFiddle, usually building off other examples, but knowing how to make my site use this JS properly always remains a mystery. I know I have to create a JS file to be included with the Page and it needs to start with something like ;( function($, _, undefined){ "use strict"; ips.controller.register('pages.front.titlename.main', { and close with }); }(jQuery, _)); but am not sure how else to get my function working. I've tried looking at other JS on my site and they're all responding to events such as clicking. I want mine to be a simple onLoad thing, where the brow…

Rant over, I grew up and upgraded to 4.4.1, so far... php 7.3 is god fast. -- So glad I did not update yet, with version 4.4 I decided to wait for 4.4.1 since I figured 4.4 will be bugs turns out from reading everyone's posts 4.4.1 is a bit of a disaster, from lazy loading not working to forum default themes breaking to more serious users not able to access the forum through chrome... I am currently on v4.3.6 and want to upgrade to 4.4.x to take advantage of the post before registration and SEO improvements, but so far it seems 4.4.x is not ready for production boards yet. Will 4.4.2 be production ready? (I thought moving from phpBB/MyBB (free) to…

Hi, Playing with clubs, I've seen that if the club is Open, a Member Tab is enabled. There, I can see who's joined in and even set moderators, leaders, etc. If I set the club as Public, it's open to anyone, fine. However, how can I set moderators, leaders, etc.? Can I enable the Members tab back? Although it's open to anyone, I would want to keep the members tab for those that are joined to the club. Thanks!

I'm getting a weird error when I try to view a topic (see below for error): Fatal error: Class 'IPS\Theme\Cache\class_forums_front_topics' not found in /home4/safarita/public_html/system/Theme/Theme.php(887) : eval()'d code on line 11 This has been randomly appearing, could a database issue dealing with the cache do this? Now, what I did was upgraded to the latest version, did a compare of the template files, and manually upgraded them. I've done this numerous numerous times. The error still appears. I've ran the support tool disabled plugins, error still appears. It's only on my customized theme, but I can't figure it out. What else could cause this? …

Hi folks, As the support couldn't help me, I like to ask you, whether you have an idea on how to realize the following scenario. For my business care, this is so critical, that I might need to close my Invision community. So help would be very appreciated as I love the platform. Guest use is not allowed (as I like to move people to my mailing list) Registration must be available for free (as I offer freebies in my sales funnel) Within the community, it must be possible to buy subscriptions On an external website, people must be able to buy subscriptions without interruptions (don't want to lose customers) Requirements 1 to 3 are implement …

:D :) Aren't being auto-replaced anymore despite the setting being turned on, plus where did all of my emoji (like :man_facepalming:) go? This is true even here at IPS, so it does not appear to be an issue with my site. Where are the rest of the emoji????

Note this is on a clone of my site and went to upgrade php to 7.2 and now my site won't load. This is the same exact version that runs perfect with 5.6 and has no issues. Is there anything I should look into to see why my site won't load or do anything?

I've created a code for my sidebare to show the ads. It's in fact the same code as I would put in the default advertisement, only I put it in a block to get a nice header above it. This ad is shown instantly on Home, Forums, Downloads, shortly said all main pages. When I open a forum it also shows instantly on the thread list, So far so good. But when clicking on a post when viewing a post, this happens: So I refresh my page and this happens: Only after refreshing my page for a 3rd time, the ad appears. In a very few cases after 2 times refreshing the browser. This is happening with newest version of Firefox, Chrome and Edge. Only differenc…

Hello Everyone. In my globalTemplate i want to check either we are viewing the home page or not. In my scenario i have a slider block which i put in globalTemplate and i want to check if the page is home page then show the slider and if not then just print out ips_container. In IPB 3.4.x there is a option like $test = $this->registry->ccsFunctions->getPageName(), so it will return the page name with extension like index.html. So guys what options are available in new 4.1.1.0 version, that will do this job. Thanks. Much Appreciated your Kind Help.
