Hi all, I have installed a test install and it's running fine on the local server, when accessing it not directly on the server, however on the same domain network, going to the subdomain displays an IIS page with all different languages, but if I add "index.php" onto the end of the address, it displays the website. I'm confused why going onto the same domain (without index.php) on the local server works fine but not otherwise. I'm wondering if I can force index.php on the end of the address when initially going onto the domain - but also keeping the friendly-urls enabled. Current HTACCESS file is straight from the IPS created file. <IfModule mod_re…

I realize this is an old topic BUT it is still open ended. We know that Invision has no interest in helping us backup or restore our site using a solution they provide so we are on our own. What does everyone use successfully to backup your Invision Community site and Restore? Don't say cloud since its stupid expensive and you are limited. Using a Hosting Provider you have so many more options then cloud. Let's keep this strictly... How do you Backup your site and then How do you Restore your site? Both but include Files and Database but not required to restore both. CPanel SUCKS for backups.. must be better options that don't cost a fortune.

My social media icons at https://forum.tracesoftexas.com have ceased to function. Clicking on the Facebook icon brings me back to the main forum page. Clicking on the other three brings me to pages that say "Sorry! The page you requested does not exist." With an error code of 1S160/2.

I'm trying to access this old topic of mine: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/379256-how-to-search-posts-made-by-guests/?do=getNewComment (How to search posts made by guests?) It says that I have to log in as a client, which I have but it still doesn't let me see it. I remember that the solution was pretty good by moving all guest posts to a particular subforum via a database query. If anyone knows the (or a) solution I'd appreciate if you could post it here. Thanks.

Hi, I'm upgrading my forum from an old IPB3 setup and I'm getting the error: array_map(): Argument #2 ($array) must be of type array, bool given There's no other explanation provided or error number or anything. It seems to have occurred while updating the gallery. Everything seemed to be going just fine though and it looks like the updater seems to work otherwise. I'm on a self-hosted license, but all my client area information is updated if that helps. If you guys have any advice or anything it'd be much appreciated.

I switched on new member moderation because my forum is getting pounded with new member spam attacks! They register and proceed to hammer us with up to 50 or more posts about budget airfare! It's been going on for 3 days now. My question is, where can my moderator staff go to approve or ban new member registrations? Or is it only admin approval? Sorry for a newb question but in over 10 years of IPB, I have never had to turn on new member mod!

Hi guys, does anyone know how to make Tapatalk work on IPS 4.7? They posted a guide on their site, but the guide does not work. They also don't bother responding to emails or threads 6+ months old on their forum that describe the problem. Really dumpster fire app and company but my users are pushing me to have that installed. Anybody knows how to do it? (I installed the application tar, but it does seem to work on their site where you configure links etc)

Hi, I’m having a security issue with my website — over the past few days, at least 4 inactive accounts were hacked and used to post spam message. I’m running a pretty old version (4.6.1) but unfortunately I’m not able to upgrade until next week—is there anything you would recommend doing in the meantime? Perhaps this is a known current issue. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

I've called this Databases and Tiers, but I might have also called it Databases and Tears! I understand there's been a recent change to the way in which the tiered pricing structure works at Invision. I've just started a brand new site which I'm confident is going to grow rapidly simply because it is serving a clearly focussed niche group (church ministers in the UK), for which there is nothing like this provision out there. ... and I have a very strong network of people to tap into and they're all excited about it. So here I am beavering away at building the site. I start on the free trial and check out the functionality etc etc. Confident it's the right platform f…

Hi, Coming from 4.4 I am working on my test site for 4.7 I totally understand how to use ACP for fresh install of 3rd party plugins/apps. But I am having trouble with updating existing ones. I see (for example) that one of my applications has an available update. I don't know how to install the update. The marketplace in the ACP wants me to do a fresh install by removing the existing version. I don't want that, I just want to install a new version. What am I missing?

Hi, I moved the site to a new Virtualmin server yesterday and all appears to be working, except users cannot update their profiles and no new users can register. Yesterdays topic I made covers what query we ran to move to InnoDB https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/471639-easiest-way-to-switch-all-tables-to-innodb/ I may need one of the team to login and see if they can fix this.
