A report made of current active user ABC is showing up as a report made of long-inactive user XYZ. Several other reports are showing the same where whoever's content was reported, that person's username is suddenly showing as the username of different inactive users. The only thing ALL of these have in common is that they share the IP 127.0.0.1. When I use the IP tool, many active users and so many more inactive users show up under that IP address. Is this a glitch? Is there a way to rectify this on my own or should I elevate to IP support?

Hi, I've setup a number profile field for my users and have different problems with member search: Setting the field as read-only (disable "Member can edit value"), then member search for a specific field value does not work anymore, instead all members matching the display name are found Hiding the profile field (disable "Show publicly on member's profile") still shows the field on the member search for each user, although only the staff can see the field in the profile Are these problems a bug or by design (I've tested version 4.1.8)? My purpose is to add a hidden profile field to each user (used for licensing information), which can only be modifie…

How come in order to get a RSS feed posted in my forums... I have to constantly click the 'Update' feed button in order to get it imported. Are you guys planning to bring back the 'automatic refresh' option like we had in IPB3?

I have a problem when creating a new album in gallery. After adding the description there is chance to add an attachment. So I try to upload ( attach) an image which I've needed to resize (it seems iphone creates images mega pixels large which doesnt help in the process) and it says "there is a problem uploading this image" with no indication what the problem might be which would help. Any ideas please?

So I have added a block to the profiles that will show on the signup form that requires the user to upload a file. I want to set that up to go to a specific file on the server. I created the folder and went to storage settings and set "custom profile fields" to go to that folder, but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

I have set permissions for guests to view events on my calendars. HOWEVER.. I want to prevent them from clicking on an event to get the full details. Is this possible at all? If I prevent guests from seeing the events on the calendars it all looks very bare/empty which isn't a great incentive to register. Best they can at least see a nice full events calendar yet not be able to get any more information until they have registered. ( unless you have other thoughts on the matter) thanks if you can chip in

My forum is fairly small by most standards, just over 86k posts and 4,500 members, and I'd like to upgrade to 4.0 now that its been out a while. The checker looks OK: http://screencast.com/t/NlzZErR4 I have the skin back to the default, without any additional add-ons that are not supported. So the instructions look simple ... this link says to just upload the files and, I guess, just overwrite the 3.x files and run the upgrade. Is it really that simple? Somewhere I saw a method to move files into another folder and run a test on that, but that doesn't seem like it would work, as the paths would be incorrect. How has upgrading gone for you guys?

Hi, I'm looking for a IP.Nexus getting started guide before I'm buying it. Reason is I fear it will be technically way over my head to setup a payment system with Paypal for example. Have been looking around but either the links are dead http://community.inv...rted-guide-r514 from support.guides/effectively-utilising-nexus-subscriptions-r257 or I cannot get access to it like invisionpower.com/topic/331496-step-by-step-instructions-for-setting-up-nexus-subsrciptions/ Or if there aren't any guides, how difficult is it because stuff like on support/guides/_/advanced-and-developers/ipnexus/how-to-create-your-own-payment-gateway-r129 *is* way …

I'm on version 4.1.7. I have added an 'images' field to one of my databases, which allows users to upload multiple images to a record. I have encountered a strange quirk when working with multiple upload fields that are empty. When pulling the data from the 'images' field using something like $record->customFieldDisplayByKey('images', 'raw'); , you get an array containing the URL objects of the images. So when pulling the data from a record that has an empty 'images' field, one would expect to get an empty array. This is, however, not the case. If I do a var_dump of an empty 'images' field, this is what I get: array (size=1) 0 => object(IPS\Http\U…
