Good evening all, Some members are having issues uploading certain images (Not all images cause this!) to our gallery. The image will go through the loading process, and right as the user clicks to finalize the upload, the entire site hangs and generates about 500 pages worth of text in this format: Any help would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Alex

I have a test board, and I am creating an App for my business that I would like to manage through IPB. I am creating accounts for testing, however the IPS Spam Service eventually kicked in (after about 15 account creations). Now, when I disabled the spam service I get an error saying "account has already been created" even though the account does not exist before I hit "Create my Account". However, the account is added after I hit "Create my Account" but the front end screen shows the error in which I took a screenshot of. I believe the error screen is loaded from the function "_createMember". Account creation was working fine before the spam service kicked in. …

We'd like a way to enable certain groups to be able to hide their profile from view and from the member's list/search results. So they have a "Hide my profile" option and Admins have the ability to decide which groups have this ability. Is this possible?

I upgraded from 3.4.9 to 4.1.19.2 and when I'm looking at avatars in the ACP, most of the users avatar images are broken. Some users have their avatars that uploaded to the site. I'm not exactly sure if these users had gravatars before the upgrade but it seems like every single person I see with a broken avatar image is set to gravatar. I did a database backup before I upgraded. Where can I check if a user had a gravatar before the upgrade?

Hey folks! Pretty simple problem, but can't find the solution. I am running a contest on my forum and use the Pages app for some hidden content. Back before, there was an option to prevent certain user groups from seeing the Who's Online? list, including what each person was viewing. I'd like to replicate that once again; however, there's only an option to totally prevent a group from seeing who's online. I'm hoping there's a PHP snippet someone might know on disabling the activity view to certain group? Here's what I mean: Notice that viewing topic link? I was hoping to remove that. Many thanks!

This has become a weekend activity for me again. That is, having to re-enter the license number every weekend. Yes, it's just re-entering and off you go but still, we don't even know why this happens. I'm running 3.4 and I know IPS don't like us still running that version. But if I open a ticket they'll tell me that's because my version is old (Done it already some time ago before a similar problem affected many people and was solved subsequently... also for me among all). However, the fact that this is a problem that goes by periods of times, sometimes yes, sometimes no, and has solved itself, tells me that there must be a solution, and it's not just a matter that n…

trying to figure out the proper way to code a change to a link. So the current code is: <a href='{$member->url()}' data-searchable> What I would like is to add this to the end of the url "/&tab=field_core_pfield_31" But thus far every attempt I made has ignored what was added.

Forums are in domainname/forums/ and I obviously want links to other sites to open in a new tab/window. So I use that setting, but it seems that it applies to everything outside /forums/ including stuff on the same domain that is in different folders. So I'm just throwing the question out there to see if anyone knows if it's possible to somehow alter that setting so that it opens links on the same domain name in the same (_self) window.

I currently manage several sites using whmcs and wonder if its possible to convert client details over from whmcs to IPS Commerce hosting? Ideally if there was a way to also copy their subscription id over that would be awesome as then the clients wouldn't have to cancel and signup again etc.

I believe moderators and admin have the ability to see the notification on a post where a user was banned as a result of it. Can that be made visible to everyone else? It would be useful, without having to manually note it on the post, that something was not acceptable and a ban resulted from it.

Hello, I am having a bit of a nightmare today. Could you please help me with another issue? When members try to edit their posts, they get an error message at first (see image attached) that says that they can't edit the post. Then at the second try they can edit the post and the editing appears fine. Why do they get this first error message? Thank you so much for your help!

On our website we have a youtube video that we would like to start automatically when someone visits the website. You can see here - Our Website I have been however unable to get it to start automatically. When we insert the ?autoplay=1 as required and save nothing happens. We revisit the code to find that the code for autoplay has been removed and thus preventing this from working. Do anyone have a fix, work around or solution. Thanks Rob

I'm trying to embed my YouTube channel's live chat into a post in an iframe using the following instructions: I tried it while a live stream was running, as the instructions say it will only be available during a live event. However I can't seem to get it working. Does anyone know how to do this?
