On e-mails I and others receive I often see weird hash strings. See attached. Are those cached ids of translations strings? How can I fix it? Much appreciate your answers!

Hello everyone, I've contacted support back on the 12th to understand why my upgrade from version 3 to 4 corrupted over 200+ users. I have not heard from Tier 2 nor have I seen them connect to my server to "investigate" the problem. I have over 200+ users with very strange usernames. Examples are provided below. 1947_1436634761 1936_1436634760 654_1436634740 1880_1436634759The e-mail addresses associated with these accounts are also wrong. For example user 1947_1436634761 has a registered email Email@1357662615I'm hoping someone here has ran into this problem before and has a solution ?

Hello everyone! I would like to upgrade my community from IPS 3.4.8 to IPS 4 and currently working on a test environment.

I have created an additional template and applied to one set of pages that load the classifieds database. While creating new database template I am assigning to required database. Once I copy the edits I do toggle in the database from Category article to Classified template. Then change the listing, Display and Form drop down to classified templates. And it failing. I have done this exercise multiple times now and each time I create new template and apply, the front-end page disappear completely to absolute white screen. In stock files, the only edit made by a programmer are in Category Articles - entry and all changes are working fine in front-end. However I want those…

When I go into a members profile, their email address appears under Contact Information (email) Is this viewing of the email address only for Admin/Mods or is it also viewable for all members to see each others email addresses? If it's viewable for all, how can this be changed?

I recall for the RCs that there was a workaround to get your license set up on a test site. I can't seem to find that, and now what's happened is that I've set up a test install (closed to the public) using 4.0.10.2 -- can someone point me to what you're supposed to do to get the test install licensed properly?

So after waiting for 4.0.10 to come out, with its promised performance improvements, we made the plunge and upgraded our IPB 3.x forum to IPS4. From what many people said, overall performance was a lot better than on IPB 3. But we've found the exact opposite, so far, and in particular we're finding what seems to be an enormous amount of SQL queries which I simply can't understand. I often looked at the process list on our forum, and in general queries would go through in a split second -- they'd be there one second and gone the next -- and often there were fewer than a dozen queries (mostly sleeping processes) visible at a time. Yes, sometimes we'd get a lockup -- our 4.5…

That's the message I get when I try to login using Chrome or Opera -- Firefox has worked fine, but I think only because I was logged in already. I have no cookie-blocking add-ons, so I don't quite understand what the issue could be. Anyone seen something like this happening with IPS 4, and know what the solution is? Thanks!

In an attempt to make my forum more uniform in the way that it looks, I'd like to block font formatting - specifically the abilities to change the font face itself, the font size, and the font colour. Is this possible?

Regarding the security advisory in the ACP "Protect Writeable Folders From Dangerous Files", this only works for Apache. Can someone share the equivalent code block for nginx assuming the default directories? Also, the devs should really consider adding the output of this code block when the server detected is nginx... I added this as my first location directive: location ~* /(uploads)/.*\.(php)$ { return 403; } I tested it and it seems to work, preventing the execution of a php file I stuck in the attachments directory as a test. If anyone can comment further it would be appreciated.
