Is there a way to assign a different theme, or at least a different logo, to different applications or different pages? I would love my header to be specific to, for example, my classifieds app or links app or whatever... Thx.

Hello. I've used to have a discussion IPS4 board, but due to things out of my control it went offline a couple of years ago. The only thing I have left is a database backup, made I guess from the admin area and not phpmyadmin. I dont have the user and password to this database anymore. Theres tons of posts I would love to read again, so I am just curious if theres a possibility to somehow bring it back to life. The backup had been made in march 2017. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Up until recently, all emails sent by the forum were being received by all email services. Now, emails sent to users with Gmail accounts are being rejected. This seems to affect validation emails, password recovery emails etc. Anyone registering with a Gmail account is effectively locked out of the forum. I believe some security changes were made at Gmail on 30th May, the last successful registration via Gmail on my forum took place on 28th May, so I'm guessing this may be the cause. I'm using the PHP method to send emails, so I don't understand why emails that were previously getting through are now being rejected. Is anyone else seeing a larger than usual number of fail…

Hello We use Rocket.Chat as chat solution for our community. For now we use the OAuth Server Application to authenticate. That works quite nice. But since there is now a native OAuth API I wonder if it is possible to move over. Currently it does not work. What I have: IPB Side: Client Type: Custom Confidential OAuth Client Available Grant Types: Authorization Code Redirection URIs: https://chat.tolkienforum.de/_oauth/tolkienforumipb (copy paste from what rocket chat told us) Authorization Prompt: New sign ins only Show in Account Settings?: on IPB generated a client-id and a secret-id (used below). I left the scop…

Hi - I have two questions about email notifications the forum sends to members: 1. The "from" name is the name of the community when reading email from a desktop (Gmail), but it's my first name when reading on a phone. I'd like it to be my name consistently, but I can't see where to change it. 2. We've heavily modified the email templates. Can you confirm that these will remain as we've set them up if/when the software gets an update? They don't seem to be part of the theme, so I'm concerned.

Hi, I have this issue since I update to the newer versions of IPB: It was working fine before, but now I can't get passed this page. I tried to add the needed file to the folder and gave it 755 permission but that didn't help. I tried to use the "NGINX" config version that worked before without issues but that didnt work either, config: location / { location /api/ { if (!-e $request_filename){ rewrite ^/api/(.*)$ /api/index.php; } } if (!-e $request_filename){ rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php; } try_files $uri $uri/ =404; } ^ ^ ^ This is also the default Rewrite config of my whole website settin…

I'd like to create a list of links to streams the user is subscribed to. At the moment this appears in the menu dropdown (shown below), but I'd like to move it from there and replicate it on the All Activity template. Is there a way I can grab all the streams for a member and loop through them to get their urls and titles?

Good evening Invision Forums I am a new self-hosted user of Invision Community! We had a critical failure of our website and both the database and the web itself experienced downtime lasting 3hrs. After which time, the host came online and now we are having issues regarding the member list on the website. Each time we attempt to access the Members list, we experience: From Backtrace: This issue only occurred AFTER we experienced the downtime. I followed a guide on your forums to 'clear the cache' and change the database table type from InnoDB -> MyISAM and use phpMyAdmin to repair, to no avail on either front. I've …

I am trying to remove the group name and add a banner when hovering over a member's name. I also would like to remove the secondary group name from the topic view. So instead of CEO Management, I would like to have just CEO. For the post I want to remove the group name under my avatar and change the highlight group name to Management, my secondary group.

First off: I am not a SQL expert of any kind, so I will not field questions about this procedure - I'm just sharing what I just did on my website to switch over DB tables to InnoDB as per Invision Support-page recommendations. The code isn't mine - I lifted it off the web somewhere. If you've been wondering how to switch over your MyISAM tables to (what I understand as) the more stable and optimized InnoDB storage engine, look no further! It might be best for everyone to do this anyway, as I read somewhere that MyISAM is now deprecated and, I suppose, on the way out eventually(?). Anyway - to do what follows you will need access to phpMyAdmin or some similar i…

I have an articles database that I use primarily as a blog. I would like to make a user group that allows those in it to submit articles to that database, but once submitted, I would need to be alerted to review it and approve it before they become visible. I do have zapier enabled as well, so if I need to bring that into play I can.

By default, the syntax highlighting in code blocks is set to HTML. This may be OK for the majority of forums, but if a forum is a special interest group for a different code language, users must set the value every time they use a code block. Is there a way to change the default to something other than HTML, even if it's "No Syntax Highlighting"?

How would I go about manually blocking bots/people from say Russia, China and Ukraine from accessing my forum? Perhaps there's some type of .htaccess code specifically for this. I want to buy the forum renewal w/anti spam service but I can't afford it anymore, so I'm forced to look for external solutions. Thanks.
