Some reason during my transfer to IP.Board 4.x I have several posts that are listed under dennis-56 and others listed as just dennis which is correct. Does anyone know of a MySQL search and replace type feature (find dennis-56 and replace with dennis) to help clean up my site? Of course this is just an example, I have several instances of this same thing that happened and would like to fix the whole site but figured if I could get some help fixing dennis I could fix the rest using the same example.

Hi Many users are using .htaccess files with some rules inside and they try to get high performance. Others are trying to adjust .htaccess files on Nginx web servers... Well .htaccess is killing your performance what ever rules are you using and Nginx is NOT read that files at all ! .htaccess to work Apache needs to check EVERY directory in the requested path for the existence of a .htaccess file and if it exists it reads EVERY one of them and parses it. This happens for EVERY request. Remember that the second you change that file, it’s effective. This is because Apache reads it every time. Numbers http://example.com/site/files/images/layo…

Since PHP 5.5 was very close to its end of life and the VPS my site is running on had CentOS 5.11 with cPanel which did not support PHP 5.6, I had to move to a new one with newer OS . The new server has CentOS 6.7 x64, 2GB 2 CPU, 60 GB disk, Apache 2.4.18 PHP 5.6.21 and MySQL 5.6.30 . The previous server was checked by @ASTRAPI and although I tried to pass all of the configurations to the new one, I have seen that the Time to First Byte for New Content Stream is rather big. Here are the results of the latest test I have done. Running mysqltuner.pl had only one warning which was to increase join_buffer_size like ; join_buffer_size (> 6.0M, or always…

Hi, I have just noticed that IPB4 doesn't combine CSS styles, currently I have 9 CSS styles that I would like to merge into one, but I don't want to break anything in the process. Are there any settings in admin CPanel to allow me to do this or will I have to start hacking the code? Cheers,

I am little confused. Maybe someone can help. Cpanel/WHM states that Memcache is not compatible with Apache 2.4.x But what about Memcached? Is it compatible with Apache 2.4.x? Easyapache has no method to install it. I could do it manually, but wanted to check to see what others have been doing. Currently, using Zend OPCache for php scripts.

I understand that PHP 5.5 is required to run version 4.1. If I upgrade our server to run PHP 5.5, will this effect our 3.4 sites? In another words, can 3.4 sites run on 5.5? I've also noticed that the latest version of PHP is 5.6.22 - should I just upgrade that with a mix of 3.4 and 4.1 sites or ? ?

So, I'm considering switching over to a secure server very soon. My questions about this are EXACTLY what files need manual changing or configuration to properly implement HTTPS. System files obviously. Not talking 3rd party stuff. What are the steps in changing any files mentioned in point 1. What actions are taken within the ACP? Ive read certain posts where all forum POSTS are not accessible after transition. What's the solution for this. Are there any known 3rd party apps that don't play nice with a secure server. Sorry if if this has been answered elsewhere but I haven't been able to find a good solid detailed guide on this.…

Hello ! My database is 12 Gb big and the engine is Innodb. I have two questions about optimization. I was told I should optimize my database and I'm asking myself : - how long will it take (approximately) ? - since I constantly have new content published in my database (on my board), will this new content be lost after the optimize or does this operation take into account the fact that the database is constantly updated ?... Thank you !

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.oss.general/19669 All existing releases of GraphicsMagick and ImageMagick support a file open syntax where if the first character of the file specification is a '|', then the remainder of the filename is passed to the shell for execution using the POSIX popen(3C) function. File opening is handled by an OpenBlob() function in the source file blob.c. Unlike the vulnerability described by CVE-2016-3714, this functionality is supported by the core file opening function rather than a delegates subsystem usually used to execute external programs. ImageMagick-7 : http://git.imagemagick.org/repos/Ima...4f0921abc61458ImageMagick…

Hi, I am using IPS Cloud hosting and want my users to be able to post their images and files directly to my site. I have quickly found that this can mean a heavy mount of data and this cn get expensive on the IPS plans. What options do I have available to have the image and file uploads hosted elsewhere. What are the pros/cons of this and what is it likely to cost. If there a way to restrict the file size of uploaded images (or reduce them) as some of the .png images are huge even when restricted to pixel sizes. At the very least I would like anything uploaded to the 'Downloads' section of the site to be hosted elsewhere I…
