For a while now I'm getting an odd Pop3 error in my Systems Logs but not really sure it affects anything. Email seems to works fine, so I wonder if anyone knows what this means, it happens every 10 minutes and it's been going for months. The urls where the error occurs vary.

Hi All, My server guys agreed to enable AutoSSL for my website. So what all the things to look for before/after enabling HTTPS. I can see below guide is helpful : 1) But please let me know if any other settings to be changed ? or any things I need to consider ? 2) I read in a discussion to enable 'serve images locally?' setting when HTTPS is enabled. Where can I find this setting ? 3) In my old posts, if I displayed images from a HTTP URL OF MY WEBSITE, what will happen to those images ? They give any error ? Do I need to modify all image paths ?

Our website has been silent the past few months as our group has put projects on hold. We recently started a new project and a member of the website told me they were unable to react to posts. So I figured it was just my software being outdated. Updated it and checked through all the settings I could find on reactions and still not able to fix it. anytime a reaction is given the response "Sorry, there was a problem reacting to this content." any quick suggestions? I searched the forum, but did not seem to find any luck.

Somewhere along the line, IPB disabled the default status updates setting. They just recently added a setting to allow you to enable the default setting, for new accounts. How do I mass apply this to existing members? I have new members groups with this "group level" setting turned off by default. Regular members enabled.

I have noticed something since upgrading to 4.3.5 as some posts seem to keep re-appearing in the unread topic list when they have actually been read. Is this because "maybe" the poster has edited the post? Is this normal behavior now? Thanks

Hello, Is there any way to format the subforum list underneath a forum so that the individual sub-forums are each listed on a new line? By default it is horizontal. I'm concerned some of our users might miss any forum that does not appear on its own line. Especially with some of our sub-forums, which have long names, it's a bit hard to read. Thanks!

Hello, all, Our forum is a paid member benefit for our professional organization. Occassionally, members' paid accounts will lapse for one reason or another. We're not using any sort of single sign on (SSO) at the moment, and unlikely to implement that anytime soon. I would like to do the following when a paid account lapses: Remove the Member's Ability to Access Any Part of IPS. Even logged in, I don't want them to be able to see anything. Retain the IPS Account. It's possible that a lapsed member will become active again, so I would like to preserve a suspended account so it can potentially be reactivated later. Allow Members to Continue to V…

Currently I have to manually add points to members who vote in polls. Is there anyway or any plug in that can do this automatically? Needs to be specific polls too, not any poll.

I am upgrading from IPS 3 to IPS 4 and need to convert data from old custom module to Links Directory. I have written a converter. Now, when I start a new conversion in IPS, it does offer only "Member and System Information" for conversion. But I do not need to convert members or system information, it's upgrade and all the core data is already there. I need to convert just links. How can I bypass member conversion?

Hi, I'd like a Category in which no one can post. But users can post in its subcategories. However, I want to show all the records from child categories in the parent category. In fact, it seems that it's possible as the list "zone" says "3 XXX in this category". However, it doesn't show any record in the list. Example attached. Cheers, Ibai

I currently use PayPal, by upgrading I mean getting an SSL certificate and, as I understand it, keeping the whole process on the one site. Have people found that to be beneficial sales wise?

We have a client who's currently using Bookly within WordPress, but they're interested in migrating the functionality portions of their site to Invision. The calendar does most of what they need, but the one thing it lacks is preventing overlapping events in the calendar. Is it possible for the Calendar to do this? Where would I begin to look to build this out? We just need a message to pop up saying their event conflicts with an existing event in the same calendar. We'd be willing to pay for the development if there's a good path forward, but suggestions or pointers are very welcome.

Hello, there. The uploads folder of my forum is taking the majority of the space of my disk and I suspect that some versions of IPB during 11 years of use generated a lot of useless files that could be prevented as seen here: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/441756-a-lot-of-images-avatars-in-monthly-images-folder/?tab=comments#comment-2717096 Is there a way to remove the uploads folder and start from scratch ? Even if this makes users reupload their stuff... I'm asking because the uploads folder is the most unnorganized thing I ever seen in my life. There's cssfiles, profile pictures, ads images all in the same place there... Any help would …

FORUM: http://www.breatheheavy.com/exhale Hi there. I have spent weeks trying to figure this problem out, but I am going in circles. IPB support recommended I open a thread here because they are convinced the error is theme related. The theme developer says it's not the theme that is causing the issue. The firewall company, Sucuri, says it's not their fault either. I am out of options on where to turn, maybe you guys can help. When some users (Android) click a link from Facebook to my forum, they see this: https://scontent.flas1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/38769188_10157592637040830_4188295052990087168_n.jpg I believe the error…
