Hello, since the last update, I can not find the button "Immediately" here: So if I set a future date and then I change my mind and I want to publish Immediately I can not do it, I can just shorten the publish date in a less future date. Why is that? That was really useful! Thank you

We upgraded yesterday afternoon to 4.7.8 from the previous version, and since then a lot of our members with older iOS versions, particularly older iPads are unable to post or see pics. Is there a definitive guide to the cut-off version for iOS, iPadOS and maybe even other OSes? Most of the folks with older devices tend to be a bit less technically minded, or unable or unwilling to pay out for newer devices, so it's a tricky issue for us forum owners, and it requires a bit of tact due to the costs involved for the members to continue to use the forum. Mike.

Hello. I'm getting this error when I try to log into the Admin. This is a new issue, and I haven't had any trouble before today. I haven't installed anything new. I can log in, but after a few moments, it kicks me out. I've tried it on 2 different computers on two different networks. I've tried switching the Trust IP addresses in the ACP, but when I log in to check again, it switches back to the default.

Hi, I'm testing an addon and need to review differences between what a logged in members see and what guests see. Edited content and comments are delayed for guests. The delay is many minutes - maybe 10 or more (I've not timed it). This is slowing up testing and was rather confusing at first. Or, is this not how it should be and there is some kind of problem? Thanks.

I'm trying to connect Invision to Constant Contact via Zapier. When I attempt to authenticate with the info generated by Invision, I get the following error: We hit an error adding your new account authentication failed: The app returned "2S290/6". Make sure you click "Allow" or "Accept" on the permission popup Double check your Account has the correct permissions Check out our help docs for more information A couple of months ago, I opened a ticket with Zapier. Apparently they opened one with you guys too, as apparently the integration was written on your side. However, there's been no real movement on the issue that I'm awa…

Someone replied to an older topic. When I try to see his reply, I can't access it: it takes me to the last page of the topic but I don't see his reply. There is no "Reply to this topic..." box at the bottom and clicking the green "Reply to this topic" doesn't do anything. Clicking the "..." icon at the top right of a post to edit it doesn't do anything. Clicking a checkbox to select a post to moderate it selects the checkbox but does not pop up the moderation control menu. I'm missing the footer at the bottom of that page. Other pages of the same topic work as expected, and other topics work as expected. Here's the broken page: https://www.logicprohelp.com/for…

Hi, I wanted to test the REST API to issue a warning without using the IPS software. As soon as I add a second parameter to the API, I get an error. I think the API needs to be updated because of the 4.7.0 (or another) version which adds new features, like achievement points. Using only the "moderator" parameter, the warning is issued without any information about the reason (which is normal). API REST $post = [ 'reason' => 15, // Reselling //'points' => 100, // (Optional) Use default reason points //'memberNote' => 'Member MSG', // (Optional) //'moderatorNote' => 'Staff MSG', // (Optional) //'acknowledged' => false, // …

When dragging some files to a post, users get the message "The application/zip file format(s) are not supported." I believe that it means a preview won't be created - but they can still be attached the file. The message annoys members as we regularly ask them to upload a .zip file. Members complain that we ask them to do something that does not work (when in fact it does). Even the wording of the message is confusing: application/zip is not a file format. Here's a recent comment I got: That's the more polite version of messages I'm getting. Some members are so annoyed they've sent me wordings I wouldn't dare sharing here. There are some angry peo…

It seems that the notifications list is not fully responsive. Longer phrases cause the scroll bar to appear. @Ehren can you take a look at it? Thanks.

Hello, 🙂 After upgrading to 4.7.7 today, I noticed that all new posts containing a link were held for moderator approval. I went in the ACP / System / Settings / Posting and disabled Links Filtering option : I had chosen the « Allow any links apart from the links specified » option. Now I use « Allow any link » and it looks like it’s ok. Have you encountered the same problem ? Thank you 🙂
