After upgrading to the latest version of IPB and converting to utf8mb4 I'm left with a bunch of malformed text in posts. Things like 'Zo hé' are now shown as: 'zo hè' This affects thousands of posts in my forum, what's the best way to go about fixing it?

Hi I just signed up for a community on the cloud package. I got an email saying my community is now ready to use. But whenever I go to the link for it - it looks like this & nothing like the documentation shows. I've tried it on a number of browsers and computers. Am I missing something? Put in a support ticket but not heard anything .... really need to get this setup asap today. Thanks Osmaan

Hello, Since the 4.x update, I'm receiving a increasing number of complaints about members getting banned without a reason, and apparently it's not because a wrong action from moderators. Even investigating the last posts of these members, there's no reason at all for the bans. Could IPB4 be doing this because a flawed spam detection or other stuff like that ? Anyone noticing the same complaints ?

First, I want to be clear that I'm loving IPS 4.1. My site has a much better feel all around since moving up from 4.0. Overall, very impressive release. I really like the selective quoting and format removal option on paste. Very cool. Seems smoother and faster as well. I can't get custom links to save in the menu manager. The save button won't work. Activity streams and drop down menus save just fine. I've tested in Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Cleared cache, just in case. I've also seen it on multiple occasions create a bunch of menu items on it's own that I then have to delete. This screenshot is after deleting 3-4 already. In Chrom…

Trying to prepare for the upgrade from IPB 3.4.7 to 4.1.2 and after upgrading the database to MySQL 5.5, the forum went down with a "Drive Error". How I updated my database was by creating a backup of the current database, created a new database on MySQL 5.5, restored the files to the new database running on MySQL 5.5, and then connected via my conf_global.php file. Anyone else have issues with this? My hosting contacted me... Database tables were missing and they fixed it.. Problem solved!

Is it possible to use Activity Streams for new topics posted only (no posts within topics)? The timeline would be based on when the topic was created rather than last post.

Hi all, I've spend my half day today to understand how to set up an Amazon S3 account to work with my attachments and files from IP.Downloads, I don't know if everything it's ok because when I want to upload an attachment it appears a message about time out. In Downloads the file seems to be uploaded but after hit the submit there is an error. In Amazon S3 console these 2 files are in the bucket and I don't know why they are in. Does anyone knows what can I do?

Instead of redirecting to the page the sign out was initiated from it now goes to the board index. How can I get back to the previous behavior. For specific application needs, I need it to forward back to the page the user clicked "sign out" on. Sign in redirection works great. Forwards right back to my application like I need it to but since the upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1.1 sign out goes to the back to the index.
