I understand that Memcache will be depreciated in IPS 4.6. But what methods of caching are going to be available instead? From what I understand, only redis caching is available now. But you can't use redis with a MySQL database. I have Cloudflare... will that be enough? Advice?

I am currently trying to change the width of one of my pages I have designed. However, there doesnt seem to be a page ID or class for this specific page. Does anyone know a way in which you can customise a single page on invision? The main reason I am asking is because this page needs to be fullwidth, whereas the others on the site are a restricted width.

Hi guys, I'm having this question and I can't seem to make a decision should or shouldn't I use non latin characters in URLS? I mean I watched a google video saying that search engines pretty much dont care if links are like: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/forum/504-dėvęlopėr-čonnectįon But how is it in real life? For example wordpress makes the transliteration to ascii characters. always. I looked at sitemaps of the biggest news sites in my country and all of their links are transliterated to ascii characters. If it makes no difference then why they do that? why wordpress does that? I get one reason why - perhaps sharing URLs in social media and…

Would really appreciate some help here. IPS doesn't currently support WeChat pay, so I am trying to update the files to support it. The only files that I have found that have to do with Stripe are: /applications/nexus/sources/Gateway/Stripe/Stripe.php /applications/nexus/data/lang.xml I am not sure what the best way to find the rest of the files I need to modify is. I thought it was just Stripe.php but it seems that is not the case.

Hello, I am currently working on a new plugin that provides content items without any container. I followed your docs to implement read markers (https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/docs/fundamentals/content-items/implementing-read-markers-in-content-items-r95/) but when I go to /discover/unread/ I get the following error: The error comes from an invalid created array when a content item has no containerId in the `core_item_markers.item_app_key_1` column in the database. Can you please provide a fix for that or is it not possible to create content items without read markers?

Hi, I’m thinking of learning to code and have a few questions if anybody would be so good to reply. I presume that Invision is centred around html/css and possibly JavaScript? Not asking how long it would take to learn them as I’m sure that depends on how much time somebody can dedicate to it, how quickly they learn etc BUT if I did learn them and got pretty fluid with it, how hard is it to go from that to learning the way that Invisions sdk works. Is Invision written in the same code that I would learn with html/css etc? I think I could pick them up within a few months but I feel that the logic behind it all “I know the code but how do I do this”…

Profiles on IPS have virtually no meta tags, at all. This could be improved by adding a link to the users avatar and maybe a general description line like so, $description = "Explore {$this->member->name}'s " . \number_format( $this->member->member_posts ) . " posts on " . \IPS\Settings::i()->board_name; $newMeta = [ 'title' => $this->member->name, 'description' => $description, 'og:title' => $this->member->name, 'og:description' => $description, 'twitter:description' => $description, 'o…

Im trying to use a template from my app on a widget using this code: {template="homeArticles" app="myappname" location="front" group="myappname" params="$articles"} And for some reason it doesnt look for the template on the app, instead it tries to find the template under the core app.

I must be blind - did the process for requesting support disappear on the website? Or should one just request support through their installation now? Also, do we know the timeline on when the following bug is being addressed? Got some seriously antsy clients who this is affecting big time. Thanks!

How exactly does Invision Power Board handle error logs and messages? Generally we use try catch. catch ( \RuntimeException $e ) { if ( method_exists( get_parent_class(), __FUNCTION__ ) ) { return \call_user_func_array( 'parent::' . __FUNCTION__, \func_get_args() ); } else { throw $e; } }

Hi, during registration a check box is presented. User can give themselves a Username. T+Cs must be agreed to. There is another check box "send me news and info". We have a bigger site were we send email news from, and we don't want to ping users phone every comment they get, so we want to remove this. The code is nested, does anyone know the template where I can remove the check box for email news. We use an SSO, but this appears after that setup. Picture in Swedish enclosed.

Inside the data folder of my application, I have where the lanague.xml is modified after the application is installed. What do I need to do for it to save to the application properly?

I’m updating a plugin to 4.5 which contains widgets. The widget settings now automatically contain a Visibility tab—but it’s empty. How is that controlled? How to add the actual visibility settings? Or how to turn that off? I checked the forum and the developer section, but I don’t see any information about this.

Apologies for the novice question, I'm slowly coming up to speed on using the developer tools to customize our site. We find we get a lot of reported posts without a supplied reason, so want to make that field required. I've created a theme hook and believe I have found here the report dialog is initiated <li class="ipsMenu_item"> <a href="" data-ipsdialog="" data-ipsdialog-remotesubmit="" data-ipsdialog-size="medium" data-ipsdialog-flashmessage="" data-ipsdialog-title="{lang="report_post"}" data-action="reportComment" title=""> {lang="report"} </a> </li> under \IPS\Theme\class_forums_front_topics However, it's not terribly obvious…

I'm not too familiar yet with Invision's codebase but would it be easy to register a class early in the booting of the app for something like reporting 500 errors or other weird exceptions to a service like Bugsnag? Integration is generally easy in other PHP apps but would like to see if it could be done with Invision without altering the main source code. Bugsnag docs › Platforms › PHP › Other
