Hello guys, I’m looking to move my community over to IPS. I’ve had a few people tell me they had some trouble with the admin dashboard being ungodly slow on the litespeed engine with cPanel and cloudlinux. I already ran the compatibility checker and it came up with no problems for the hosting environment. Is there a known list of issues between IPS and litespeed that I should be aware of before going through with the migration and purchase? If so, is there a way to resolve them before or after the community swap is done?

I'm trying to emulate some of the things that IPS has done on its current community theme, and am getting stuck on the navbar and the dropdown menus that are being used there. I'm currently trying to include an ipsMenu dialog dropdown into my test theme navbar, but I am not getting a very great UX here. While I can essentially place a button and ipsMenu within the Navbar area, and it looks pretty good, the issues arise whenever you try to hover over the dropdown menu itself. It keeps disappearing, as if the site thinks you've placed your focus elsewhere. I can't think of any reason why it's doing this, perhaps IPS staff have an idea or some tips on how to make this w…

Did anyone have to face AJAX issues with AWS Cloudfront? My community has an issue with post quote. The AJAX quotation only works after a browser reload. Glad to hear from anyone that had to deal with it.

Dear all, It has been 3 days that my community is attacked by spam accounts. These users are able to register, passing the spam verification, and to post more than 10 topics in minutes. It happens 2 or 3 times a day. Am I the only one having this issue? Maybe there is a problem with the last version of the platform?

Trying to migrate my site from shared hosting to a dedicated VPS. I've changed the php.ini file so that the memory_limit = 256M, however the installation says it's still set to 32M.

I have a mix of Inno and MySam tables. A LOT of MySam. I know how to change them one at a time but don't know how to change them all at once. Can somebody give me a step by step on how to change them all to Inno? I know just enough to destroy everything. I tried the following query but it didn't work, Said something about formatting errors. Also exactly where in PHP do I run it?

I'm considering moving to IPS cloud hosting, but find it hard to justify the cost of ElasticSearch. It starts at $95 per month from Elastic. This is something I have installed on my server for free. I believe it's possible to use OpenSearch from AWS as a service, but it's really hard to figure out how much the price would be for using the service. Looking at this page, I can't tell if I need to spend $0.036 per hour or $7.00 per hour or something in between. https://aws.amazon.com/opensearch-service/pricing/ Does anyone have any idea how to calculate the true cost?

So I went into WHM on my server and enabled 8.1.... Do I need to change this to match the previous handlers, or leave it on this new setting? Also can I just flip my IPB forum domain to use PHP 8.1? Then go see if anything is broken on my website. If it is, can I just flip it back to 7.4?

Hello everyone, I want to make my posts more professional, I would like to know how I create a carousel of images to present as a slideshow inside a post? So I can talk about something and instead of having several single images, I would like to put them all in a carousel for the member, when viewing the post, to be able to browse the images in a more natural way. Is there any way to do this, even if it's html?

Hi, In Germany there is a court ruling according to which website operators have to pay a fine if the website reloads Google Fonts. I have now had this tested and Invision uses this function. So I have to change the fonts to local fonts. Google fonts may also be used, as long as they are available locally and are not reloaded. What is the best way to do this? thank you Greetings Werner

I switched my forum from VBulleting to Invision two or three years ago. When I look at PHP MyAdmin, I have several databases and I know that at least a couple of left over from VBulleting. Does Invision use these are can some be deleted? I wonder if _forums and _forums2 can be deleted. Also, ipb one appears to be completely empty. Now sure why it's there.

I've recently experienced mass card testing on my website which induced quite a hefty fee towards me, I believe I've implemented the correct anti-fraud rules now. I'm left with over 9,000 blocked/failed transactions and invoices, How can I delete all these in mass? Such as from the database itself.

Hello, I'm trying to create a stream that only show topics and not comments. Example: https://linustechtips.com/discover/466/ I selected "Content items only" and "Topics" on my stream but the stream is also showing new comments and it's not what I want. I just want to see new Topics. Thanks. Edit: The stream is actually showing topics but they are sorted by latest comments, I want a stream sorted by the topic creation date.
