Has anyone purchased a theme from this company before? I bought a theme for $35 and they dont let you use it until your account is approved and you register the licensing. Its been like a week and my account still hasn't been approved, did a little looking on the website and there really isn't anything on the site since January. I tried contacting them with no response. Has anybody else ordered through this place and if so any explanation as to whats going on? Only reason I ask is because the website is affiliated with Invision as the transaction for the forum theme was done through Invision. Any help would be great thanks

What is the correct way to use this image so it appears on safari etc? I have two identical 72x72 images in public_html named apple-touch-icon.png and apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png but that's all I've done, it appears to work but it was guesswork on my part.

The z-index on user menus and hovercards needs to be increased. By default, all rich media ads served by double click (this is what is used for serving rich media adsense ads) have a z-index of either 999999-1000000. See here: http://support.google.com/richmedia/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1249219 Since adsense/double click is the #1 ad network, and the most like ads to be used on a forum, it would be good practice to increase the z-index used in IPB for menu's and hovercards to be higher than than 1,000,000. Yes, I agree that is an insanely high number, but since we can't control what google does, we can at least compensate for it. For example, if you use the …

I changed my database from myisam to innodb, have been rebuilding the search index for the past 18 hours and posts are going incredibly slow, only at 22%. Previously, the whole rebuild took around 5-6 hours to complete. Why is it taking so long now? Server load hasn't gone below 4 since the conversion either, it used to always be 0-1.

I have just converted an old vBulletin v4.2.3 forum to IPS, but my BBcode is now shown as code instead of showing it as styled text. I have search to forums and only found one other post with the save problem, which was in a 1.3.x version of IPS. https://invisionpower.com/forums/topic/434650-bbcode-shown-as-code/#comment-2668995. Sadly the tools mentioned here is for v1.3.x. Are there any tools like this for v1.4.x? The BBcode works fine if I choose to edit the post or create a new one. Thanks in advance.

Despite what can be read on the Creating Advertisements Guide simply adding the ad tag only results in the tag being displayed as text instead of the ad showing. Is the guide misleading? Is there a way to enter the tag that works or do I have to go template diving? I tried creating a custom block but I get the same thing. (yes I am using the correct "KEY") {advertisement="KEY"}

Hi, given that IPB4 is focused on 100% responsive design (very excited about this, long time coming for my community) .. I need to ensure all of my advertisers' banners are displayed correctly. In the past, when I wasn't focused on responsive design (yes I'm a slow adapter, I know) ... I simply created a table at the top header .. putting the logo on one side, and the horizontal banner next to it. But now with responsive, how do you create a responsive horizontal banner next to your logo at the top .. so it doesnt interfere with the userlinks bar in the upper right corner? Has anyone been able to accomplish this? thanks!

I got an email from google a couiple of days ago: Nonsecure Collection of Passwords will trigger warnings in Chrome Beginning in January 2017, Chrome (version 56 and later) will mark pages that collect passwords or credit card details as “Not Secure” unless the pages are served over HTTPS. The new warning is the first stage of a long-term plan to mark all pages served over the non-encrypted HTTP protocol as “Not Secure”. Here’s how to fix this problem: USE HTTPS. So, does Invision power recommend that we all use https now?
