Every hour the entire board goes out with this error message and only this: upstream sent unexpected FastCGI record: 3 while reading response header from upstream, client: xxxxx [info] 274#274: *326933 client 212.228.25.73 closed keepalive connection And I'm not sure exactly why this is happening, or if anyone has run into this issue before. I've disabled any custom extensions but I am unable to resolve this issue.

I love the new feature of having extra topics on forum post replies, but how can they be dynamic and related to content instead of the same 4 topics?

While doing some cleanup realize two folder throw lot of error while ClamAV scan them and complain of having too many files in excess of 12k files. While having a look inside, realize 90% files are dated from 2015-2017 and only 10% from 2018. Is it safe to delete those old files from 2015-2017...? cimage/cache/remote cimage/cache/

Hi guys, This morning I upgraded from 4.2.8 to 4.2.9 and now I feel that page refresh / reloads are slower than they used to. I cleared the forum cache and also my browser's cache, but still it seems a tad slower than on 4.2.8. Do others that upgraded to 4.2.9 have this issue? Chris

We recently updated to the 4.3 update, and due to changes to the platform we need to update our theme. We use the theme 'Villain' from IPSFocus, however whenever we upload the new theme we get the following error: I tried to also upload another theme (Mind) as a test however I got the same error. I confirmed the directory permissions are 777 for 'uploads', 'datastore', 'uploads/logs', 'plugins' and 'applications' as required in the initial installation process. Gif Example:

Well, a long time ago (IPB 3.*) i used AJAX pagination with gave a problem on the site. I turned it on because i heard the site should be faster. Because of the problems i disabled ajax. A few years later (today) i was clicking in the Theme settings and saw the setting: Use AJAX pagination? At the moment it is turned off, but before i turning it on i want to know at it really does. I search google, search the IPB community but its not clear. Is is better to turn on AJAX? Why should you do it, just the loading times or is there more? Hope someone can help me out. https://www.duken.nl Duken

Hi does anyone know if it's possible to show custom text after someone has taken out a subscription? I am forcing users to view subscriptions during the registration process and have a free option, I'd like to show the benefits for them to upgrade if they take the free option.

Dear All I have a forum that is limited to a certain group of members. I want to grant one member, who isn't a member of that group, access to that forum but only have access to one topic, and not have access the other topics. I appreciate it is a somewhat bizarre request and I can't immediately think of a way of achieving it. The only way I can see is to create a private forum, just allow that one member access and then re-create the topic I want him to see. Can anyone think of a more elegant way of achieving my aim? Many Thanks Bill

I am certain this is a misconfiguration on my part, as this issue does NOT happen with the Default theme template in 4.3. However, I made customizations to the default theme from 4.2.7 and as of the update to 4.3, my search fields all appear this way: with the search options, sans their background, constantly popped out. This happens on both my customized Dark and Light themes, but again does not occur on the included default, so I assume the mistake is mine. Has anyone seen this before? Do i have something in elSearchWrapper or elSearch toggled incorrectly?

I can create tasks as part of an application under the tasks tab. I've got it set up to run weekly and it works fine on that basis. However I want to specify when in the week it runs - say Tuesday. This should be possible as a normal cron job (thanks, Wiki!): How can I (can I?) set up a weekly task in an IPB app that will always run on Tuesday morning, for example.

I have posted a support ticket for this but no response to it yet and my members are going nuts. I've just moved members into a new group and am not sure if it's related to that or from the last update. There is no search box in my header for standard members, and if they try and navigate to the search url they get : I cannot see a group setting that denys access to the search function. Anyone point me in the right direction ???

Is the highlighting of the search term works ok for you for languages other then English? I am talking with elasticsearch enabled. I can for example search for "book" in my language and it will bring me results for "books", which is fine, but only those result that contain "book" will be highlighted. I see that it works correctly here, so maybe it is related to the non English language I am using? Want to double check with someone else before submitting bug report.

Hi folks, We got this issue after updating to 4.2.9 from 4.2.8. As you can see the information "On 4/19/2018 at 1:54 PM, MemberA said:" is missing...? We had to manually clear (invalidate) all caches, after that all was fine. To clear caches the following function/shortcut can be used alternatively: 1. Backend Login 2. "System > Support > Something isn't working correctly" 3. The diagnosis screen is shown, note the message that all caches were cleared. My question is: Are the caches normally cleared during upgrade? During our update we had outdate information (see above) Thanks, Thomas
