Hi, I dont know if this has to do anything with the server but when I edit a template bit and save it I dont see the changes reflected on the live site. I went to recache skin sets and that doesnt work either. The only way to do it is by downloading the file and edit it directly so I can reupload it to the server. What can I do to fix this? Thank you.

Hi guys, I bought an IPS license some time ago and I finally decided to convert my SMF big forum into IPS. I have done all the steps (members, topics, messages, private messages, etc) but I miss ... the topics / forums and messages. All user profiles exist, the counters are good, the forums indicate the number of messages, the forums are existing in the admin but nothing on the forum itself or in the profiles (activity history). I haven't rewritten the url because I am in local, on my computer with MAMP. (the files that start with a .dll on mac are considered as system files). I'm lost.

Hi, So I notice that on a page delivered by this community, for example: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/forum/406-server-management-resources-optimization/ One of the response headers is cache-control:no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate Looking at the IPS-code this doesn't seem to be a header IPS sets programmatically in the PHP-code. I've checked some forums I manage and they all lack those headers. It seems that might lead members on those forums (which lack the headers) to be required to refresh a page (after they've used the back-button in their browser) in order to have the previous page be updated (one update might be that the ma…

Something weird is going on with my DB. Today I have noticed that the index size of core_notifications is few times as large as the other tables: I tried optimizing the table, which as I understand, will recreate the index, but it didn't help. I also checked the size of my daily mysql dumps and it seems this thing started on 06.01. I cannot remember making changes to my settings on 06.01, no new apps installed, no new plugins. As you can see my zipped db size is growing like 100mb per day, which is A LOT. On some days it is reduced, on some day it increases again: The structure and content of the table look fine to me: Any idea…

The forum is set up and we are converting the 620.000+++ posts as we speak, and have begun looking into advanced settings of the forum. We want the forum to staore data in MySQL database, not in file system, but this never came up as an option during install. Is it as simple as setting "MySQL" option in ACP and go from there? Hopefully setting MySQL also let us chose a methode for caching as well. This option is impossible to set to anything else than "No caching". Qestion: Will the data now stored in file system convert into a given SQL DB when selecting this option?

Hello, I have a small board (maximum number of concurrent connections is 15), IP.Board version 3.4.8, hosted in an iMac. It has been working for years, but recently I have changed to a new iMac, and the transfer has not been completely successful. In the old iMac I tried to update the board to version 4.1.5, the conversion of the mysql tables to utf8 gave me some trouble but, in the end, apparently it was working ok. Then I transferred the files and the database to the new iMac but the board didn't work. I had to downgrade from PHP 7 to PHP 5.6 and restore the files of version 3.4.8. Currently, the board is working but if I try to login to the Admin CP I get a blank …
