Is anyone else seeing this? I am running AdSense with traditional static ads and with Auto Ads turned on. The setup worked perfectly with 4.7.0. After the upgrade to 4.7.1, any attempt to scroll to the bottom of a page with ads results in a browser crash. If I turn off Auto Ads in the AdSense control panel, the forum works fine. I can only assume that some change in 4.7.1 is conflicting with AdSense Auto Ads. Would be good to know if others are seeing the same thing so I can confirm this is the source of the problem 🙂

Hello - We received the following notification and checked with Cloudways if it is okay to change the format to "Dynamic". They recommended asking Invision Community if it's safe as they said that there might be issues in losing data. Has anyone here experienced changing the database format? What was your experience and what do you recommend? We are looking to create a backup of the database before CW will update it and in case something goes wrong, we will add it back (this way we will lose only a few records). Thank you, Denise

Hi - I'm still on 3.3.4 and will be upgrading soon with the help of a third party expert. I was notified by my hosting service in July that my DV was approaching end of life. They did a migration to a new DV and gave me as much time as I wanted to make sure all the files had moved over. Yep, all was great and I used some form of a cmd on windows to ensure my installation was in fact working on the new server. yes. All set. For 10 days, everything worked wonderfully on the new server. Then I contacted the host and requested they close the old server. As soon as it was closed, I started getting a database driver error. See the attached image. I called the ho…

Greetings! I've recently moved my forum from self-hosting to Invision's cloud service. Previously I was using a locally installed Elasticsearch server, and I'd like to continue using Elasticsearch or Opensearch going forward. I've already installed Opensearch and tested it, but it's not clear to me how to secure it with my now cloud-based forum. Obviously I only want to support connections coming from the forum, but with IPS using CloudFront, the IP addresses used by the forum are dynamic. I'd like to either use Elasticsearch/Opensearch running on one of my servers or Amazon's ES service if I can do so and it doesn't cost and arm and a leg. Either way, I wi…

Hello, I have recently updated my version to IPS 4.7.1, and then asked my provider to update the PHP version to 8.0 (from 7.4). Just like it happened when I tried to update to PHP 8.0 before (but I thought it was I still had IPS 4.6 version), here is the problem I face: Also, I can not access my AdminCP. When I click on mywebsite/admin, sometimes I get a blank page, sometimes I get this error message: Any idea why this happens? The provider sent me the error message (related to my theme): PHP Fatal error: Cannot use "parent" when current class scope has no parent in /var/www/vhosts/…

Is there any way to change the color of the left pointing arrow of this bread crumb. For the life of me I cannot get it to change. Anybody know the CSS wording for this to allow me to change from Red which it is taking from the Nav Bar to the Dark Blue which is changed by customizing the elMobileBreadcrumb CSS. I will be extremely grateful for any assistance. Cheers

I Admin/Moderate a large 15 yr. old "Community" (425 GB - almost all in the Forum) for an important customer, with important information and images. It is running V 4.4.10 on a dedicated server with Liquid Web. I wish to hire someone experienced to upgrade to the latest version. I don't want to take any chances. I previously paid Invision to do my upgrades via their "Premium Support" which I believe is no longer available. So, I have little confidence in my abilities in this area, or the "automatic" upgrade process when it comes to dealing with such an irreplaceable resource. I am more concerned with hiring experience before cost. There is a very simple skin wi…

Hi all, I was about to upgrade our community to 4.7, then I get this message: We operate a dedicated server and I'm usually ok with the many things we need to do, but I simply don't understand how to do this. Can someone give me an idiot's guide, stop by step, on how this is done. Best assume I know nothing and you're trying to explain to an alien 😆 Thanks, Jim
