Just curious, something I thought about doing on 3.x but never tried. In theory (as I've had complaints) ... ... What would happen to the few user accounts that have signed up with either FB or Twitter/X -if- I was to disable those registration methods ? I'm not personally keen on those anyway really, its not a concern to fill in a short form. Would they still be able to sign in but have to run lost password recovery and/or would the system want their email to sign in ? I have it on username/pass currently for 'normal' login not email/pass (I did want this but the community didn't) I appear to have two 'standard' ones too, the regular one i…

When I try to upgrade There's a supposed database error, even though the forum and store all seem to work fine, and when I click "FIT THIS" it generates the following message and an enormously long list of manual things to do (all above my pay grade): "There are some problems with your database. Normally it is safe to try to fix these problems automatically however if your community is large, you may want to run the necessary queries manually. If so, the queries to run are:" and at the very bottom of the huge list there's a "Fix automatically" button, and after clicking that and letting it do it's thing I swear the list of supposed errors or manual fixes It's as…

When looking at the list of topics in a forum some topics have this grey star, its seems to indicate those where I have posted a reply. The other icons have a hover over feature that displays when they mean (eg. Featured), should the grey star do the same?

Was working on something new and started issuing POSTs to a Pages DB but it's erroring with a 500. System log entry below. Being this is a create of a record via a POST, I'm not sure why it is triggering an edit (requiring a record_id) which is also via a POST.

Hello. I have a serious problem with my installation. I was setting up the S3 external storage for an application, and it has all gone down. There is no way to access the ACP or the website. I set the constant recovery_mode , but it didn't work. The storage works fine with other applications and general attachments and images. This is the error message I see when I try to access the site: IPS\File\Exception: CANNOT_MAKE_DIR (6) #0 /home/talenta/talentaaurea.org/system/File/FileSystem.php(306): IPS\File\_FileSystem->getFolder() #1 /home/talenta/talentaaurea.org/system/File/File.php(355): IPS\File\_FileSystem->save() #2 /home/talenta/talentaaurea.…

We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now. Table '.\remnants_boards\ipbcore_store' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed You can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later. The only way I can seem to get into the Admin Center is if I remove \define( 'STORE_METHOD', 'Database' ); this brings things up; however, it also take out all databases etc. How / Where can go to repair this crashed Database. I've already tried recovery mode, and that didn't resolve the issue.

I found the guide about venue and I added the sample venue of Buckingham Palace, as well as the location I would like to add, The Old Joinery, Ravensbourne Wharf, Norman Road, Greenwich SE10 9QF United Kindgom. Here are images of the venue settings and the resulting calendar display. I am using 4.7.12 devsite testing. Whether I select Buckingham Palace or The Old Joinery, I still get this same display, in terms of no Google Map. Why isn't the Google Map displaying?

We have an issue with notifications (bell on the site) are lagging. There is a new message in the topic, the topic is highlighted in bold. The user already read it, but the notification to the list comes later. I do not know how and whether it is related to our email notifications issue. But users have started to complain around the time we have started to get timeout error in email logs. I am trying to understand who is “responsible” for this: our server that is too slow to deliver notifications any settings in IPS I have made or overseen that can throttle notifications IPS not able to handle large number of notifications at once slo…

In one of the most visited page, I added a google review snippet from a known provider which resulted in an infinite scroll, and I can't delete that block (maybe) faulty code. please help urgently. https://carnity.com/desert-driving-course/ However codes are working fine for the guest user, but when I log in page stretches to an endless horizontal scroll. Can any of admins here delete the wsyisg code for the second last segment? Or where does these custom pages stores, so I can manually remove those codes thru FTP and save back the page. Please help, urgently. Thanks in advance. Look on the left down, horizontal scroll is ne…

Hi, folks. I'm seeing some bizarre behavior with images on a page. I've got some embedded images in some WYSIWYG editor blocks, but when I view the live page it loads spacers in the src for those images: <img alt="Wide Rhombas - SDK.png" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" data-fileid="8" data-ratio="62.50" style="height:auto;width:800px;" width="800" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/p328873/monthly_2024_03/WideRhombas-SDK.png.374a077f26f5314917ea3e08a0d09472.png" src="https://support.haptx.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"> However, when I bring up the page editor and open the manager blocks tab, the images load correctly: <img alt="…

Hello. I'm having trouble with the background moving of files. My hosting company was getting cranky about how many & size of my files, so I set up an S3 storage. I moved one section at a time, starting with some small areas such as blogs images/attachments, downloads, etc. Once that worked fine, I moved onto a larger area (my Gallery), which also went well and was completed in a few hours. My last move was Attachments. it seemed to go well for awhile, then it stalled out at 73% and has been that way for over 12 hours. I think it's stuck. It seems like other background processes are going through, but seem a bit slow. I tried clearing my cache and disabli…

In the age of AI and Social Media, there are more bots than ever. I recently noticed we are giving up 70% of our server load to HEAD requests. This appears to be fueling a constant load on the database even when there is very little activity from members. If you are seeing a kind of pumping activity of load rise and fall, it is probably from this. I have blocked HEAD requests to mitigate this activity because it is being done by dynamic IP sources without user agents and or ignoring robots.txt. However, this is not ideal as HEAD should be saving load from GET requests. Seems to me the IPB system could somehow mitigate this or is everything, even the headers, coming f…

Hi I'm looking for your help and advise, have you ever seen bulk mail sent twice in your community but the user didn't do it? Here is a screenshot of the bulk mail screen. It has recorded being sent to 1002 members, which is exactly twice the number it should have been. Please note its UK dates day/month/year so it happened last week. Looking at the Admin Log, we can see the bulk mail being Added and Edited by John but recorded as sent twice. Normally, from my testing we would only see one record for each time it was sent but look at the time. If John had sent it a second time, the bulk mail screen would record 501 members not doub…

Hello, I keep getting the following error when trying to upload PDF files on the slightly larger side. Files uploads around 20 MB will sometimes complete and sometimes not, but if the file is around 25 MB or larger, it never completes, and I get the following error: I have seen elsewhere that this is usually a PHP settings issue, but it persists even after setting extraordinarily generous PHP ini settings, for example: max_execution_time = 600 max_input_time = -1 (I assume -1 means unlimited, but I have also tried with this setting at 600 to no effect) max_input_vars = 16000 memory_limit = 2048M post_max_size = 1024M upload_ma…

Was planning on moving from ElasticSearch to OpenSearch in the weekend and wanted to check if anyone had any experience with going with the newest version (2.6.0). Going by the OpenSearch documentation it states they are only introducing breaking changes between major versions, but wanted to see if anyone had any experience with it as it is not always easy to do full testing in a dev environment. Can see the following at line 98 applications\core\modules\admin\discovery\search.php, and would assume one could just take >= 2.2 and bump it to >= 2.7 (Any other constants/variables/strings/etc that needs to be changed?) if ( version_compare( $response['version'][…

I can't seem to figure this out and the entire site is offline. I was in the middle of an S3 move of theme resources back to to the server and its been hanging on a move in progress for two days. I checked the cron job and ran the task manually twice, then this error. I tried to set into recovery mode and also permission set via constants.php file. I use redis and my datastore folder is empty. I've checked the database and no issues. Access updated

I offloaded most of my site to Wasabi-S3. I have many articles that use the "Insert Existing Attachment -> Gallery Image" function. Now that the move is complete, those embedded images do not render properly in the article. If you hover the link, it just shows a link to the top level of the album rather than the image. However, if you edit the article, you can see the proper attachment at the bottom of the article in the attachments bar, and it easily reinserts itself into the article. You can see an example of this at https://www.cheersandgears.com/articles/news/acura/a-minor-refresh-makes-a-big-difference-for-the-2025-acura-mdx-r6692/ The system trie…

On my site there seem to be quite a difference between the maximum amount of visitors to members' profiles displayed in the latest visitors block. While some show up to 11, others only show up to 5, and of course I'm only comparing profiles for members I know must have received more visits than either amount. So, I'm trying to work out the reason behind this difference, if there's some setting somewhere that determines the max. number of visitors shown for each profile. At this point I tend to believe that only members who signed up before a certain date, show up to 11 visitors, while those who signed up after show up to 5. I know that would odd but it's th…

Hi, In the Gallery section, when viewing some images, they are not shown in full, that is, only a portion of them is seen as if they had not finished being downloaded to be displayed. This usually occurs on tablets and mobile phones. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Sorry, I didn't mean to duplicate the post.
