The instructions given for upgrading these is "go to the market and click install", but doing so says that it's already installed and I need to delete the existing one to move to market version. But doing so would delete the existing data. This would suck pretty hard for stuff like feedback and trophies. How can I upgrade without data loss?

The upgrade process of the forum went great, the install of my Light/Dark themes went great as well. I did the Marketplace setup process for my applications, but when I tried the "Install Update" button on one of my applications, I received the following error: Is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, all. I sell products on my board. The new 'product page enhancement' plugin I installed yesterday is showing '0 reviews' next to the price. The old page didn't show that with the 'Customers can submit reviews?' option turned off in the Store permissions. It looks bad with '0 reviews'. So, since I can't turn it off, I'll ask my customers to write reviews. Where do I send them to do that?

hi, I recently got into email list cleaning since my community is 14 years as of 2 days ago. 🙂 I know yaaay 😄 so I discovered neverbounce.com they do a solid work and even offer 1000 free cleans on a new account. Thing is I exported some emails from IPS ACP members list. fed it to neverbounce it spit back out a list of non-existant, not working and otherwise unusable email boxes in a csv format. 1m dollar question now is how do I unsubscribe from receiving my emails in BULK those members which have those bad emails?

I changed a word to be filtered into 2 STARs "**" and now I am getting tons of complaints because email addresses are being affected This doesn't seem helpful at all. I would prefer if the word filter sticks to the stuff being posted to the site.

Back in the day - used to access the site through filezilla and upload items, etc. Recently picked up some more forums for a project and I can't remember what the host would be? And would I login with my own account information for the user/pass? I know this is a very newbie question, but figured the community would try and help out. I appreciate y'all.
