I followed the automatic upgrade from with AdminCP, logged in to my account and the files downloaded and began extracting. When I next glanced at the screen the update had failed with an error of 'too many redirects'. I can no longer access my website or gain access to the AdminCP. I've been advised by support that it's a server error but I've not had any problems before using the auto update method from within the AdminCP. I've never had problems with 'too many redirects' either and my website was performing perfectly just prior to the attempted update. Not sure what to do right now but just a warning to others as to what can and might happen.

Hey IPS community. So this just happened. In the middle of promotion of our membership product I decided to upgrade forum to the latest version and got a failed upgrade with "500 Internal Error". (not the smartest idea, I know now). For things to be even worse, I've just realized we don't have fresh backup, at least not fresh enough to have our initial forum version restored physically. Bluehost can't help us and I don't even know where to start or whether it's possible to maybe perform a fresh file reinstall and use existing database with our user data ? And this is happening in the worst possible time, so if there's IPS dev. expert willing to help, …

I created 2 banner ads with the "Fluid view topic listing, between topic rows" setting. First banner: after every 10 topic rows (Repeated: 1 time) Second banner: after every 20 topic rows (Repeated: 1 time) But this causes only the second banner to appear. The first banner was ignored. Changing the number of rows didn't have any affect. Setting "Repeated" to 0 times causes both banners to be ignored so I guess 1 means "display 1 time" and not "repeat 1 (more) time". Only way to display 2 banners was to set the first one to "repeated: 2 times" and completely disable the second banner. If I kept the second banner on (even if it was set to 21 rows (so …

Hi, I have two users I wish to exclude on the Leaderboard, one is a bot for RSS feeds and the other is the Admin account. The Leaderboard must be about the members, not people that run the site. Can anyone please advise on how to exclude certain members ? Thank you.

Serve images from local server?: I have this option selected: When using https and members post remote links to insecure images then this can cause the page to report as insecure in your browser. This setting, when enabled, will cause the image to be retrieved and then served from the local web server over https instead. This doesn't seem to be working, or at least not in the blogs section. Am I just confused because the link of the image shows the original image URL location or is this really not copying the images over? Is that just because it is in the blogs section?

Hello, The users were able to log in IPS via a third party script which was, basically: require_once(dirname(__FILE__).'/forums/init.php'); $IPSLogin = new \IPS\Login\Internal; $IPSLogin->init(); $member = $IPSLogin->authenticate(array('auth' => $_POST['username'], 'password' => $_POST['password'])); $expire = new \IPS\DateTime; $expire->add( new \DateInterval( 'P7D' ) ); \IPS\Request::i()->setCookie( 'member_id', $member->member_id, $expire ); \IPS\Request::i()->setCookie( 'pass_hash', $member->member_pass_hash, $expire ); \IPS\Request::i()->setCookie( 'hasJS', true, $expire ); This does not work anymore since the 4.2.1 upgrade…

As we move from IPS 3 TO IPS 4, there are a few user-experience questions for IPS4 that we have. Will "Preview this Topic" still be available? Where you can see how many new posts, how many unread, or have the option to mark as read? The new build displays all topic replies from oldest first to newest last. Whereas the previous IPS3 theme displayed all topic replies newest first to the oldest last. This has been a hot topic among developers without a common solution to solve. Am I understanding correctly, that the only way for members to see the threads that have new (new to them) replies is to use "View New Content". But when they open up that thread,…

I mass created 95% of the database records on my site. It is somewhat discouraging to my members to see my avatar everywhere when they update a record to add information. Is there a variable I can change in the display templates to show the username/avatar of the last person to update a record, rather than the creator of the record? This is what shows.... This is the last person to update this record (shows in Revisions)

Hello, I was wondering if there was any way I could turn off my thread previews? I notice my forum threads showing previews which discourage people from clicking on the articles. They just read the preview and it doesn't show up for the post views.
