I have offering Supporting memberships to members of our community but would like to make changes to the page for individual products, in the Store. Membership types are illustrated with an image, i.e. not a product photo etc, and I would like to just display the product image and not show/enable "click or hover to zoom..." The abbreviated two lines of the product description is displayed under the price. As the full description is displayed just underneath, I would like not to display the excerpt. Although there is a renewal possibility for each membership, I would like to only display the price 100 USD, not "and 100 USD per 365 days" Anyone knowing how to customize? I …

So I set the max upload on my server to 50mb and uploading files of 50mb works just fine, however, if I try to upload several files(that I believe equal over 50mb altogether) after submitting the page it'll take a while to load and then just show a white screen. I believe this is either being caused by NGINX's keepalive not being long enough or that IPDownloads is trying to submit all the files as one combined one?

i am seeing various styles urls for attachments / links in my post table post field: Examples and in some cases the site URL? what should be the proper url for the links? and shouldn't internal links if someone copies and pastes a link to another post shouldn't the url be replaced with the abstract string so that should the url change or or the path change then the embedded links would continue to work?

Our Downloads section seems to be acting oddly. In the file description post (for example, HERE) we have CAD plans of guitar designs for download. The written description has an uploaded image which is embedded in the middle of the post. After editing three of these posts, these upload/embeds all seem to be linked for no apparent reason. In the link shown, the correct image is mid-post. Great. However, below the body of the post (after the CC licence) a second image is shown as an uninserted upload. This image was actually uploaded as part of another file's description. Specifically, this one. To make issues even more frustrating, editing the first post and removing the…

Hi, trying to convert my old vb 4.2.2 forum to ip board 3. Converter stucks at "topics" permanently. After a while, at around 130K (from 150K) I got a white blank screen, and nothing happens. I tried to repair the SQL table (vbulletin_thread.sql) with phpmyadmin -> same I imported the SQL table 2nd time -> same I set the amount of rows to 1K per cycle -> same I exported SQL table from old server a few days later, imported it -> same Much bigger table "vbulletin_post" seems to work. Any ideas how to fix it?

Hi guys, How would I allow users to embed an external PDF file? I have created a new button in the toolbar section, which works for me as admin, but not for normal members. The code used is this: <iframe src="http://docs.google.com/gview?url={option}&embedded=true" style="width:600px; height:500px;" frameborder="0"></iframe>The result for me as admin is the actual PDF inserted into the popup, but for normal members the source is stripped from the content, leaving only an empty box. I have seen the ""Advanced configuration" setting, but unsure how to use it with this... Any ideas?

I have a database with 2.5 million posts and the posts table is 12GB. The core_cache table is now 50GB and growing. Is this supposed to be like this or is it a bug?

Is there a plug-in for IPB 4.0 that will present a splash page when a visitor arrives at the website? For example, if the site hosts adult content, then the splash page could provide an "Adult Content Warning" and present the user with 2 choices (such as"ENTER" or "EXIT") if the user agrees with the terms of the splash page. If the user selects "ENTER", then the page disappears, and the user automatically is sent to the website. If the user selects "EXIT", then the user can be directed to an alternate URL, such as "Google," "Yahoo," etc. Thanks in advance for your response!

I'm trying to test an upgrade from IPS3 to IPS4, and would like to change my URL from whatever.com/forum/ to beta.whatever.com in the process. I've tried changing the address in conf_global.php, both before and after running the upgrade, but both methods lead to the same bug – after the upgrade, all CSS, images and JS files will fail to load, and the frontend source code shows that it's trying to load these addresses from an address that's like "http://beta.whatever.com/http://whatever.com/forum/uploads/", which obviously fails. So in general terms, my question is, how can your change your community's URL in IPS4, and have all of the cache and stuff update correctly?

Hi, I decided to convert all tags to lower case letters. Already activated the option to "Convert all tags to lowercase" but it seems that did not convert. I could run these commands below without compromising the database? UPDATE core_tags SET tag_text = lower(tag_text); UPDATE core_tags_cache SET tag_cache_text = lower(tag_cache_text);Thanks.

Hey, I'm developing an external application appart of IPS. However, I would like to be able to provide instant access to my application (without logins or visual registrations), according to if the users are already logged-in or not in my forums. I know this is possible with Single Sign-on (https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/single-sign-on-sso-r98/) by reading the user session in forum. However I've had some problems with that and I've tried to give a shot to the other option. However, there are no really pratical examples of using IPSConnect. I've been looking for some built code, just to understand what parameters should I be passing i…

Since day one of me getting ips4 i noticed an issue with logins. My members complained that logging in was forcing the remember me option and its not possible to toggle it off. I tested this myself and its true. Now i disabled all of my plugins and extras to make sure it was not me but it still happens and my bug reports go unnoticed. Are people aware of this? can it be fixed? are the staff on it? Because my users are grilling me about it and tbh i would grill me too since this bug renders anyone using a public terminal to access a ips4 forum vulnerable since it saves the login. So if you use ips4. Please test it on your forum. And drop some feedback. At the very least we…

I have file compressed and uploaded to a forum post but for some reason after downloading the file the file fails to decompress. What would cause the upload to be corrupted - and it is on the upload because manually grabbing the file from the FTP also fails.

Hello, I've discovered that using second option of Single Sign-on implementation (https://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/single-sign-on-sso-r98/) leads me to a session problem. I am using a PHP framework named Yii2 Framework (www.yiiframework.com), and I've find out that the using the following snippet from the docs, do cause some conflicts regarding the framework session, as if the IPS Session would overwrite the framework session. <?php /** [...] **/ class SiteController extends Controller { public function actionIndex() { require_once('../../mygame.pt/forum/init.php'); \IPS\Session\Front::i(); /…

Hey, I'm looking for a way to redirect users after them have been successfully logged in in the forums. Basically, in my external application I'm checking if the the member id I'm receiving is different from 0. If so, and if the user does not exist already in the external database, I am redirecting him to the login page, such as http://domain.com/login However, in IPS3 I was able to do something like: http://www.domain.com/index.php?app=core&module=global§ion=login&return=http://external.domain.com How can I achieve something similar to the return parameter that used to work in the previous version? Basically, I do need that when my users succesfully login…
