Random people keep getting this error on my forums and I am unsure why. I've cleared all IP bans to rule that issue out leaving me unsure what else it could be.

Hi I'm new to Invisionpower & just set up my first community under the Community on Cloud package. I thought it was all hosted for me & therefore updates etc would be taken care of ... as I didn't need to install anything to start it. But I'm getting a big red message at saying - Version 4.1.3.2 of the IPS Community Suite is now available. This includes a security patch and we recommend you upgrade as soon as possible. This is also been shown to the members when they log on. When I click the link to update - it then tells me to download, extract then upload to my server! Any help or tips with this please? Thanks

Hey, I would like for IPBoard to send a second email of my liking to the sign up (and verified) user! How can I achieve that? Hack the code? Is there a way to set up a logic to send an extra mail upon verification of the sign up? Thanks!

Possibly a quick, easy one for most of you but i can't figure it out... I posted this on the forum: http://www.ibizaoc.com/forums/index.php?/topic/14753-the-new-seat-ibiza-cupra-the-full-scoop/ Which works fine if copied and pasted. If i paste the link into Facebook (for example) and the link is clicked on I end up with this url instead: http://www.ibizaoc.com/forums/index.php?%2Ftopic%2F14753-the-new-seat-ibiza-cupra-the-full-scoop%2F Is there any reason why the slashes ( / ) are being replaced with %2F ? And how do i fix that? Thanks in advance!

I'm running the latest IPB v4.1 and all the toolbar icons are wrong, for example the Emoticon button opens the Code dialogue and the Hyperlink button aligns text right. I've tried reuploading all the files, resetting the toolbar and installing a fresh theme but I can still not fix this issue. Any suggestions? Nick.

So I installed 3.4.8 today and was able to do my importing from Xenforo today. I got everything setup and everything looks fine. I then moved the forum to the root and everything is ok. Now here is where I am confused. I went and downloaded the latest 4.0 from my Client area. Now it's basically a zip with another folder inside with numbers. Am I suppose to take all the files inside and over write all the old files? Or how do I exactly upgraded from 3.4.8. to the latest? I have ran the upgrade script and I am good to go, but I am just confused on where to put the files and then start the upgrade. Can anyone explain it a little more clear to me? Thank you!

Okay, I just found out the hard way that there is no way to UN-delete a post. I thought I was deleting a REPORT but apparently I deleted the POST. Uggh. If there any way to recover the post? I'm being accused of censorship and it was an honest mistake.

The default installation, only seems to provide an ugly html page saying the file was not found. But here on this IPS community they show all navigation and a nicer looking error page. How can I create the same on my own IPS community site?

Ever since the upgrade to 4.1.3.2 my forum Email has stopped working. Problem is, most of my members are not able to login for whatever reason now, but one common reason is forgotten passwords. They are not getting the password reset. O host with GoDaddy and did not have any issues until this upgrade. I tried everything I know to get it working, but no dice. Any ideas how to fix this bug? My Email has been down for 3 days now and been waiting on IPB tech for 2 days to respond to my support request.

1. Uploaded smileys appear as blank on the emoticons ACP page and are placed in a subdirectory below the emoticons directory like this: uploads/emoticons/emoticons I'm not sure if this is caused by permission issues and If I need to adjust it. 2. Emoticons in old posts are just blank.

Hello, Back at 3.4.x moderators could see the reports only from the sections they have moderator powers. Now, moderators from specific areas see ALL reports from ALL sections of the forum. You can only give access to all reports or none in the "AdminCP / Moderators" Since the forum is quite big, moderators keep receiving irrelevant reports that they can't moderate... So... I'm doing something wrong here and there's a config hidden that I didnt see, or they messed up the report system on IPB4 ? Thank you!

Hi there, I've just setup a new IP cloud forum, but I'm missing any form of styling on the forum. I've had a quick search, but I can't find any information about this. How do I setup the styling for the website, I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious? Many thanks in advance, Allan Wagner
