One of my members board left a private discussion doing a mistake. He wishes now to join again this discussion but I don't know how because other participants of this private discussion get error message when they try to invite him: "You cannot invite him because he already left the discussion" Is there a possibility to join again this private discussion? Thank you

Over the past year we've been migrating a large site (hundreds of thousands of items in various sections) from a relatively unknown CMS to IPB, using an in house developer. The developer has built scripts to move the database fields across to the corresponding ipb fields, and we're almost at the end now. However, we've got one problem that is still causing issues. Even though all the data exists in the database, and is even there when one browses the relevant pages app, the items in the DB aren't being indexed into the caching (so they do not appear in some widgets and searches). This is resolved on a single item by editing it and saving it. The process of saving th…

Does anyone work with Stripe and third-party marketplace payouts? We currently use a PayPal merchant account with payouts, but are looking at Stripe as an alternative for various reasons. We are a digital art commissions community, and some artists are complaining about the PayPal payouts gateway. How easy is Stripe to get set up to accept payments and send payouts? Is it as easy or easier than PayPal? Thanks!

Hi, I recently upgraded my community from 4.2.5 to 4.2.6 and this upgrade apparently brought a template change in sidebars (I understood that this was done for better advertisements management.) My sidebars do not include any ads, but do include custom blocks which I created from the Pages app, and added in the pages by using the "easy" block manager editor. The code of my custom block simply starts with an ipsBox wrapper and an <h3> title, which previously was as large as the whole sidebar. Now, they are wrapped in an additional ipsBox and ipsPad which creates a white padding around my custom block. I can edit my custom block code to remove the ipsB…

Yo! I read the Pages tutorials, and I'm gonna read them again, but I have very little practical experience in web design/development and I was hoping for some advice. I'm setting up a roleplay forum.. I have a database for character profiles, that members can submit an entry to. What I'd like to do is set up some sort of form that applies an HTML template that formats the character sheet. The basic idea is that I would have fields for things like class, race, magic spells, stuff like that - and in the text editor, the member would fill these fields out. Once they press the Submit button, HTML/CSS magic kick in, and the entry is formatted to resemble a typical D&D…

Hi, We'd like to, when a post is reported, to show in the post (only to moderators and administrators, of course) that it was already reported, with a link to the report. Is there a way to configure IPS to do that, or do you guys know if there is a plugin that does that? Thank you in advance, Gabriel.

OK so I want to start off my Blog correctly. I love the style and layout of IPS' own "blog" but as I go to replicate something similar I am reading that it actually doesn't even use their own Blog application. Is this a little disheartening for anyone? I had hoped that I could use the Blog app to achieve a similar result. Plan B, using Pages is there advice I should know to help me achieve the "look" of the IPS blog: https://invisioncommunity.com/news/ ?

I'm running IPB 4.2.6. My board is connected with several other online resources. When users signup for my board is a typical reason is that they came from one of my other ventures (mostly e-commerce opt-in type things). I'd like to integrate all of my other users together with my board users at least for my email updates and such, which I can't do. (I use a thing called Klaviyo to manage newsletter updates and such which as far as I know doesn't integrate with IPB so I have most of my users in one place and then the rest in another and its a pain in the rear now after years of the user base gets larger and larger). What table holds the Member info (really j…

I've renewed a license for v4, for a community that is 3.4.6, and had gallery. The gallery is not used much so I've only purchased license for the forum. During the upgrade process, I get errors that the files under webroot/applications/gallery are missing. How do I disable / remove the gallery component so that I can upgrade only the forums? Thank you.
