I currently have my forums in http:// subdomain.domain.com however subdomain is actually a folder of domain (www.folder.com/subdomain). and I would like to use the Pages Gateway function so that when people go to my website at www.eotir.com they can be routed at the Forum CMS/Pages site accordingly as if my forum was set up as a subfolder an not a subdomain. The problem is when I go to Pages, then click on Advanced settings in order to set the Gateway, I get this message: "Your Invision Community suite is already installed at the root of your domain." This is only partially true because it is at the root of a subdomain, not the root domain. Any suggestions or ideas o…

When using the old IPB forum, when we had a registration who had an email address that was in the banned list, an Admin did a few checks on the person and if they passed was manually added. However, the new IPB will not allow Admin to manually add a person who has an email address in the banned list. We dont want to add that banned email address into the allowed list incase of future spam registrations. So, is there a work around to this problem?

On my site we've been using 4.x for a short time, and "Members Viewing This Topic Now" is one of the things our members miss from 3.4 I looked around to see if a third party plugin existed and couldn't find any, which I find surprising. So, just checking with other members in case I overlooked.

I had a member who has definitely won many, many days PM me recently to inquire as to why he has, on his profile, only 1 day "won" when he is certain (as am I) that this number was much higher the last time he checked. I recalculated everyone's reputation, and it remained at 1. Furthermore, my own total sits at 19, which I know was significantly higher the last time I checked. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It seems as if "days won" counts were reset at the beginning of the new year (January 1, 2018). Can anyone else speak to this? If so, what the heck?

Hi Is there a good way to add Facebook Pixel to IPB. I want to track events and build a look alike audience. For example I want to know who visits my marketplace (downloads) and who actually completes a purchase (commerce) Maybe I just drop the pixel in the header and set up the events on the Facebook side? Just thought I would ask. (didn't find answers searching) Thank you

I have a forum topic, and the posts within that don't appear to be sync'd correctly. It's the only topic on the entire forum (our DB is over 15G) that is behaving this way. When viewing the forum_topics table, it has the last_post as the 50th post, but there are at least 25+ more after that. When viewing the forum_posts which are attached to the forum_topics ID table, all of the posts are present. Is there a way to force a re-sync of all the tables so that posts re-appear on the topics that they should be appearing on? (FWIW, I've already used the support tool and disabled all customizations and nothing was fixed/changed).

Struggling with using the IPS image galleries on my site. ( I'm a firefighter, not a tech guru, and my laptop senses my frustration and is starting to fear the axe. haha ) 1) Is it possible to create a gallery images using just the "record images" from a database? So as new entries are made, the record image from the new entry would be automatically added to the gallery. I've tried using 3rd party slider widgets, but not really what I'm after. I want to automatically pull only the images that were designated as record images into a gallery. 2) Is there a way to create a user gallery per member, that is attached to the member profile? So each membe…

Is it possible to split posts to a different topic and keep that topic's original post intact? Case: Topic 1 has off topic discussion. Moderator creates Topic 2, with an OP of "Discussion of <offtopic>" Moderator moves posts from Topic 1 to Topic 2. Moderators OP is now at the bottom of the thread, due to chronological timestamp. Is it possible to get Moderator's OP on the topic at the top? Does this require DB edit?

Hi, the european directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) is starting on 25.05.2018. So it is a big problem, if IP adresses are saved in database. We need an option, that IP adresses in database are deleted after 7 days oder that IP adresses are not saved at all. Thanks in advance! Mark

I've just upgraded to 4.3 beta and I can't get into my admin and I'm thinking its due to a 3rd party plugin/application. Is there a way I can disable the apps outside of the Admin area? This is the warning I get when I try to log into my admin area: SELECT * FROM `core_members` WHERE IPS\Db\Exception: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1 (1064) #0 /home/mfftk2co/public_html/system/Db/Select.php(378): IPS\_Db->preparedQuery('/*IPS\\Login\\Han...', Array, true) #1 /home/mfftk2co/public_html/system/Db/Select.php(580): IPS\Db\_Select->runQuery()…
