Hello there, I used the tool Staff > Administrators to add a new community admin. He has unrestricted access; however, he cannot start the Block manager in the frontpage, the "You do not have permission to view this page" error appears when he tries.

Basically what the title says: I am looking for an easy way to create a block that displays a feed of comments which have been posted on articles in the Pages App. I haven't used the Pages App that much in the past, but now that I do, I realized that there is no preconfigured block that can be selected in the Frontend Sidebar Manager in order to display said comments. We have it for forum topics, for downloads, for blog articles... but not for pages articles. And yes, I am a total noob when it comes to creating manual templates and such, so bear with me. How can I create a frontend block that displays comments from articles (within a database, within all databas…

Hi everyone, good day and I'm highly confused on which choice to make as I plan to add a new feature in my car community to list car specs, prices and offer a car comparison tool. Please advise, which out of below is the most practical way forward: Load car specs in IP Pages and then "struggle" to find a developer who can design car comparison tool Get Wordpress readymade theme with tons of features and awesome looks and find a developer to match the header to IPB theme I'm more inclined on number 2, as to keep the 40-50k car descriptions in a separate DB will help to balance the IPB core running smooth

Dear All We have our CiC set up which we are very happy with. We also have a standalone installation. We would like to copy some posts from our main install to the standalone, in particular posts with photos. I understand that you cannot export/import specific posts. Can anyone suggest any way that doesn't involve having both setups open and laboriously copying/pasting each post? Many thanks Bill

I've been doing alot of research and about 6 hours of solid browsing and now I'm admitting defeat. I currently have the client simply submitting hashed user details to a custom php api responsible for user authentication as well as database queries. I was wondering if it's plausible to setup InvisionCommunity to act as an OAuth2 server which can serve member details via REST to a Native Desktop application where users will login using OAuth2(my site) to retrieve their user details. Has anyone managed to get this working, if so can you throw us a few pointers both the available IPS docs and what's publically available aren't cutting it. Is…

In my Pages all there is a "Subtitle" field that is throwing this error sometimes when I submit articles: EX1406 IPS\Db\Exception: Data too long for column 'field_7' at row 1 (1406) A look at my database indicates that field_7 is a varchar(255) field. I suspect that this happens when I put in more characters than 255, however, I thought the field length would not allow me to do that. Any ideas on how to handle this?

I have a new forum running 4.3.5. After having run 3.x on another site forever, everything is different! When you click on the "Mark forum as read" icon next to a forum, on mobile devices it displays a popup to confirm this is what you want to do, and on desktop views it simply marks the forum as read. Given these icons look identical to the icons displayed next to topics in a forum, yet behave in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT fashion, I've had several people ask me why the hell the forum icon marks a forum as read, while in the topics view it brings you to the first unread post. I have to agree. So, to help people not accidentally mark a forum as read, I want to disp…

I'm trying to use a block to display a Table of data using some custom data, however whenever I do i'm getting this error. It's strange to me that I would get this error on the default IPS theme. Any suggestiosn? Notes: This is on an unedited version of the default IPS theme This is running in `front` not `admin`.

I've been noticing seemingly random jumps in our 'Most Online' stat on the forums, and I've been a bit suspicious of the figures it has been showing. Today I noticed it had leapt dramatically to a totally ridiculous figure - prior to the jumps starting to happen, the highest figure I trusted was 370. I've just tried rebuilding the caches using the 'something is wrong' feature under Support in the ACP, but this didn't make a difference. At this rate, Most Online will exceed our total member count soon! (Yes, I know this is possible if enough guests visit at once, but clearly, something is wrong here.) Any ideas? Kev

Hello invision community. Some time I bought you verification of age. I have a problem. When I add the rule link, the privacy policy and the terms of use of the forum to verify the age, it always displays. when I enter this link. I would like the verification to turn off as I enter the regulations, privacy policy and conditions of use, and how to get out - she turned on. Please, no one else can help me. Otherwise people would have to accept the verification, and not read the regulations, privacy policy and terms of use. https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/9052-age-verification-pop-up/

Is there a setting (or a plugin) I missed that lets me have like an active "wall" in a club. I just love the activity feed on the private profiles and it would be really helpful if I could post some things directly into a club.
