We just upgraded to IPS 4 and found it's no longer possible to view/reply to statuses from the board index. Clicking replies takes you to the user's profiles. Is it possible to re-enable this, or is there a mod for this? We really miss this feature - not sure why it was removed. Finding that's the case with a lot of features in v4. Status commenting "on the fly" like twitter, facebook, etc. seemed to be the way forward, removing it I think is taking that feature a big step backward.

Hi, when I go admincp -> Customization -> Languages -> Create New i end up with a white page. The page shortly loads (picture) and ends up as a white page. It gives the following error code: [Thu Jul 23 17:24:46 2015] [error] [client 7.777.777.777] PHP Fatal error: Class 'InvalidArgumentException' not found in /is/htdocs/wp1115443_VXJB8VYS1O/www/blablabla/IPB4/system/Lang/Lang.php on line 385, referer: http://www.blablabla.de/IPB4/admin/?adsess=sequvfnv8reb4o353rmd93jue1&app=core&module=languages&controller=languages [Thu Jul 23 17:24:46 2015] [error] [client 7.777.777.777] PHP Fatal error: Class 'IPS\\Db' not found in /is/htdocs/wp1115443_VXJB8VY…

Hello... I have contacted support (ticket 925496) but they don´t reply and my website it´s off one day... yesterday my host completed an import of three files to the database that the Invision Support told me (some problems after a vB4 to IPS4 conversion) and now my website it´s off, I can´t access to admin and can´t access to the page... I am a little disappointed with Invision because I think that this is a problem wich has been caused by this three files I said and my website it´s off one day, and they don´t say me nothing to solve. http://www.foroiphone.com

Hi, I would like to replace the "load new posts" link with a "getNewComment" link in order to reload the whole page instead of new posts only. I can't find the related code in the default theme.

Hello, I upgraded to IPB4 a couple of weeks ago and have noticed quite a few guests reporting posts. This never happened with IPB3. Is this a setting somewhere in the ACP, and can I turn it off? Thanks -Pete (also does anyone know when the next release is that is supposed to fix the laggy mobile editor?)

Hi, i want to run a multi expression SQL statement from the SQL Toolbox. My goal is to create an event that runs periodically. I cannot insert it in the database as it seems SQL Toolbox is very limited and gives me an error saying there is an error in the statement. The thing is that this works as a charm through the MySQL command line. I cannot execute any of the statements individually as they need a variable. I do not want to create another plugin, app or anything, just to create this event. DELIMITER $$ CREATE EVENT A ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 DAY STARTS '2015-08-25 07:00:00' DO BEGIN SET @hoje = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()); SQL expression 1 SQl expres…

Howdy, I found how to change the date format for the calendar app, but not for all other apps in my IPS4 site. It's currently MM/DD/YYYY but here in Australia we use DD/MM/YYYY so I want to change it to avoid any confusion with my users. For example: Any ideas how I can do that? Many thanks!

Since updating our page views have plummeted. When the box comes up saying new replies if you click show replies does that count as a page view/thread view and if not why not? We have a linear thread which means everyone is always for 98% of the time on one thread. They will refresh that thread to look for new posts and just stay on it all day. Thanks!

Hi guys, I spoke to IPS about this and apparently there's no way to do this via the software, so I'm hoping someone here knows of an SQL query or something that I could use. Essentially, I want to nuke all signatures on my forum because when I updated from v3 to v4 the formatting of them all was messed up a bit. Some just look outright broken, while most merely have doubled-up whitespace where I guess the way the forum handles paragraphs/line breaks was changed. I have too many members for it to be viable to manually fix all this, so I'd rather just start again. Does anyone have any idea how to achieve this?

I want to use a library I found on Github in one of my plugins, but I am uncertain of the correct way to go about that. The library is structured as follows: lib-dir ->js-dir ->lib.js ->img-dir ->img1.png ->img2.png ->img3.png -> etc ... I see that there is a directory called 'dev/resources' in my plugin. I assume that everything should go in there. Correct me if that is the wrong assumption. So now my question is: how do I reference my library from my template hooks? I really only need to include the lib.js file, but that javascript file then includes the stuff from img-dir, so I don't want to break the established director…

I get "EX1048 Something went wrong. Please try again. " Here is a server log Does this mean my database might have errors from the conversion? Anyone know how to fix it Thanks.

I upgraded my forum to IPB4 a while ago but we weren't satisfied because of all the bugs IPB4 had. Because of that we decided to downgrade to IPB 3.4.X with a backup. (database and all) But now we wanted to try to upgrade again to IPB4 but unfortunately the upgrader isn't working as it should work. Please look at these images. When we click on the convert url, this happens: But when you click ''proceed'' it will redirect you to the log-in page of the upgrader and that happens all over again. Because of that we wanted to try something else we tryed to upgrade the database to UTF 8 with this script: https://community.in...base-converter/. It solved the problem above, …

OK, I've looked and looked and haven't found the place to put in a custom media BBcode. On my XenForo sites I can add custom media BBcodes direct from the ACP. Does IPS 4 not have that ability? What I'm trying to do is emulate what I did with SpotWalla on my motorcycle site but using map my ride for bicycles. The result would be similar to when you paste the youtube link, but it would show the map in an iframe. Is this another one of those things that you have to create an add-on to get IPS 4 to be able to do?

On my website I have a custom sidebar block that shows the status, channels and users in my TeamSpeak 3 server. It seems to not refresh unless I press Cmd + Shift + R (using Google Chrome on a Mac) to force a page refresh. For example, I might load my site, it'll show 2 people in TeamSpeak and then 2 hours later I know they've left TeamSpeak and I open my website and it still shows them there but they disappear when I force the page to reload. When I created the custom block in AdminCP I left the caching option turned off for that block. The re-cache time for other sidebar blocks (recent topics, forum stats, etc.) is set to one minute. Any ideas how I can stop it from bei…
