When ever I upgrade every so often i would get the message, something like: with a big continue button. In the past hitting continue would do just that go on to the next step. In RC6 it would NOT continue so i copied that text and dropped it in to the SQL tab of phpMyAdmin and to 1 second to complete then the continue button worked. So hitting this Continue button DOES NOT constitute the manual run of the query; and we are suppose to log in to phpMyAdmin and run the query from there!? If so perhaps this is why post installs there are flaky bits because the needed queriers indeed were never ran on the tables. - Please revise this screen to outline the proper procedures …

http://www.kartreview.co.uk/index.php?/forums/topic/10-motorsport-videos/#comment-141 For some reason my embedded youtube videos seem to be restricted to 270px in height. Is this a setting somewhere or do I have a bug? This happens on the standard IPS skin too.

I work away from home a lot and stay in motels. When I visit here either first time from the motel or when I get back home from my trip my password is often rejected. I enter the correct password and it's still rejected. The only solution is to do a lost password recovery. I do this and just enter in my previous password. Only happening on this site running version 4. My own site and other sites running 3.4.7 I don't have this problem. Anyone else having the same problem? Invision - comments?

In 3.4.7, I had set a group to always be anonymous. This setting was not preserved in 4.0. Am I correct that this setting is now no longer available?

Is there any dev docs, like how to create a hook, an example. I am super none dev and need a hook that after registration sends off a few bits of the info to another script. I am trying to find how to build a hook but the docs are no where to be found, well at least I have not found them. Any ideas?

Did an update from RC5 to RC5a and for me, the style sheets look broken pretty much everywhere. It feels like one of those problems where a missing ; has caused chaos, but it means nobody can post (unless CSS disabled), reputation plugin on the front page shows all 4 tabs at once, admin CP doesn't work properly etc. Anyone else suffering this or just me?

Has anyone else noticed a slow server response time after upgrading to IPS4 RC5? I have 8GBs of ram and quad core dedicated server with minimal traffic and it's slow as it goes.

Hello, I just noticed in my test IPS4 RC5 site, that all my custom profile fields are blank, and named as "core_pfield_x" where x is a particular number. The fields don't have any of their original settings from my 3.4.7 DB. Wondering if this is intended, and I have to start over, or if such behavior is unexpected.

An admin on our site somehow accidentely deleted a couple of ours mods' accounts through the ACP, I'm just trying to fix their join dates on their new accounts (already assigned the posts to the new accounts etc.) I know how to change the join date, but not what I need to change it to. This is one of our member's join dates What would I need to type in to make the join date Feb. 10? I can't seem to make a connection between those numbers and the actual join date. If anyone could help that'd be great.

When I first found out that this was removed months ago I didn't really care because well what difference does it make if there are 20 (like I had on my 3.x site) or 25 posts on a page? Well turns out it actually does make a big difference when browsing on mobile. 25 posts is too much for a mobile site and the browser often crashes, especially when switching between pages.

Hi All, How can I install a local dev version of the version 4 suite so I can implement plugins/enhancements in a controlled environment without introducing bugs into our live site. Trying to enter the license it suggests (probably quite correctly) that the license is only meant for one domain. The lack of alternative documentation for the new version coupled with the amount of money charged is frankly staggering! Thanks, R.

Is it possible to disable automatic embedding of a topic when posting a link to a it? I just found out that when viewing a post with an embedded topic, it actually loads that whole topic. And if, for example, a user opens a topic page with another 10 topics embedded, they are viewing 11 topics at once which could cause problems on large websites.
