There's plug-in that do this for Wordpress. I wanted to know what options exist for Deferring the parsing of JavaScript IPS suite to speed up page loads. Is this even a good idea for a forum app? I was always wondering if someone would make a hook for Deferring the parsing of JavaScript so the setting would not break with every IPS update.

Ended up having to migrate to cPanel and I'm having one odd issue I can't resolve. As I mentioned this is a cPanel / PHP5 / DSO PHP Handler / Suexec [OFF] configuration. I can't rewrite / update my furlCache.php or globalCaches.php from the ACP > Tools & Settings > Cache Management The error I receive is: Could not write to the cache file, please check permissions on /cache and /cache/furlCache.php Checking the permissions on the directory and files # stat -c %a /home/www/public/cache 777 # stat -c %a /home/www/public/cache/furlCache.php 755 # stat -c %a /home/www/public/cache/globalCaches.php 755 Same errors for both globalCaches.php and furl…

So basically, to get my ipb + ip nexus installed, I need to meet these requirements: http://www.luna-network.com/check_requirements.php I have no idea how to install these or fix what is needed. Could someone link me to a guide or write out what commands I would need(preferably linking me to any website where you intend on pulling packages from so that I know they're safe).

Hi All...(Hope this is OK to post here.) Well, I am coming today to see if I can find someone that can help with my server config. While I am not new to communities and server etc, I just do not have the time to put into adding items needed and setting a good config. Server is an 8 core Intel® Xeon® CPU X3450 @ 2.67GHz, 16 gigs RAM, and two 15K drives. Running WHM/Cpanel Server is more or less dedicated to http://DBSTalk.com though it does have some other small personal sites on it. Server Version: Apache/2.2.24 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.24 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/5.4.14 MySQL 5.0.96 Running XCache Server seems to run fine, however, I j…

I'm having trouble accessing my test forum locally hosted using xampp that I had set up a few months ago. Xampp and the forum is located at c:/xampp/htdocs/forums. The url I'm using is localhost/xampp/htdocs/forums. I tried clearing the cache. I also tried three different browsers, all saying object not found. I can however access this page, localhost/xampp/. And when I use this url, C:/xampp/htdocs/forums/ I see the parent directory. I also tried running xampp with admin rights.

Hello, I just post here because I noticed that a few members have what they call "coded signatures", which are iframes integrated in their signatures so they can show plenty of things with a nice layout. I have nothing against these signatures but I was wondering if iframes get the pages much slower ? As well, what's better between an iframe from a page of my own website and an iframe of a page hosted elsewhere ? Many thanks for your help !

Previously, I was using Xcache 1.3.2, PHP Version 5.3.26, and IPB 3.34 with no issues. Well except that the forum has issues unless you run Xcache Read only protection. Now I have been upgraded to Xcache 2.0.1 (same IPB and PHP versions) ) and I can't seem to get it to work. I am using a Centos 5.9 XENpv VPS (Apache) with 1.5/2.5 Gb memory and 16 CPU's. Even with the default configuration, the second I turn Xcache on via my global config file, my website goes blank. The required apache reboot does nothing. Here is the error from my log file: [26-Jun-2013 07:51:30 UTC] PHP Fatal error: require() [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a&…

Hi folks, This is a bit of a long-shot but I thought I'd come here and ask. IPB have already said they won't help as it is beyond their scope (even with the incentive to pay for the work). We currently run a rather large Invision Board setup of some 5.7 million members and 7.5 million posts and have been looking to move the forums over to a MySQL Cluster setup to better accommodate future expansion plans. As it is we don't just get a lot of traffic from users visiting the forums, but we also own a network of sites that make use of our Invision Board as a centralised membership database and commenting feature. While we can setup a MySQL Cluster just fine, getting t…

I've Just setup my forum, added a skin and modified it slightly etc. However I got some advice from a member to optimise my site. He wrote to me: Just keep an eye on the mysql size and at least once a week optimise the db. Also empty any large log files as these can have a huge impact on speeds etc.. I would introduce some bad word filters. Is there any settings or anything I should do to optimise? How can I manage the mysql size? Empty large log files and does anyone have a spreadsheet for the bad words filter? Is there anything else I should do? GZIP? If so, any tips how to? Cheers Neil

Does anyone have a specialized my.cnf settings that they tinkered with? Right now, I have a board with 100,00+ members with 1.8M posts. I'm currently on a dedicated server Intel Xeon E3-1240V2, 16 Gigs of Ram, dual 1TB drives. I'm using Sphinx as my search engine (v 2.0.4). I'm just trying to tinker my settings and I'm curious what others had with similar hardware / board sizes. Thanks, Worthy

I've set up a copy of our large board (5.7 GB) on a local Windows 7 machine for testing purposes, with a Test Install license. Everything appears to be working fine, but one: whenever I try to display a forum, or message in a forum, I get the dreaded "Driver Error" message, and returning to the index does work, fortunately. Literally everything else does work fine, Members, Calendar, Downloads, Blogs, Tracker, Gallery, you name it, it works just fine. ACP also works just fine. I have tried everything by now, tweaking my.ini, php.ini, htppd.conf, nothing, other than that occasionally the ACP stopped working as well, due to MySQL connection problems when I set b…

For those who are interested, I have made available a sphinx.conf that uses ranged queries. If you are using MyIsam mysql tables and find that you are getting table locks when rebuilding Sphinx every night, this config should help alleviate these issues. After I upgraded to version 3.4.2 from 3.1.4, my server was getting table locks doing the nightly rebuild. I hired Percona, a well respected MySQL support company, to resolve this issue and they suggested ranged queries in the Sphinx rebuild process. This has reduced the table locks on my server, though the DB server will run slowly while performing the index. I offered this file to Matt and Brandon to include in …

I've honestly never dealt with setitng max expires and that stuff with htaccess and wondering how you guys handle it, due to some issues with directadmin and nginx (yeah I am still using a panel....) I had to slide back to apache. in my case I think setting the max expires/cahce stuff would be easier through htaccess vs global apache templates.

Good Server: I had a macmini colocation server which gave me no problems uploading files to ip.Downloads of any size. Bad Server: I switch to 1&1 Dynamic Cloud Server (latest CentOS 64bit with Plesk 11) and every upload fails even few MB. I was told it may be a problem with tmp folder or some partitioning issue. But no one has been able to help me solve. Anyone have insight?

after many years with Invision as our forum's host, my small forum is reaching a point where the current offering is not ideal, and wanted to know if any of you guys can personally recommend other hosts, as well as things to look for when shopping around (needed support, etc)? This the list of my current criteria: 24 hour tech support (at least for emergencies like downtime/hacking etc) Automatic backups, ideally every 24-48 hours (i'd assume this was a standard, but found out otherwise years back) Stability - we don't usually run more than say 10-15 active members tops (double that with search engine bots/etc) but i definitely don't want anything that'd struggle wit…

I am moving from one 2010 Mac Pro to a brand spanking new Mac Pro (quad, 32gbs of ram, 20 tb's of disk space). Old machine is running 10.6.8 server, new is running 10.8 server. These are physically located in my office, I have a t1 line feeding them bandwidth. I have prepped the new server, all apache mods that were running on the old machine are running on the new machine, php is the same version, Mysql is the same version. I have copied over the ip.board subdirectory to the document root folder, and fixed whatever permissions errors I had. Exported the mysql database, then imported it into the new box. Initially I could not log in at all, eventually …
