Under what user account do you recommend running the crontab tasks? Is there anything else I should be careful about? Maybe a short guide? I do know how to set crontab.

This is the code that was working for about a year now, but after the last update it has broke. <h3 style="font-size: 24px;">{$file->name}</h3> {{if $file->container()->bitoptions['topic_screenshot'] and $file->primary_screenshot}} <br> <a href="{$file->url()}"> {{$image = ( $file->primary_screenshot instanceof \IPS\File ) ? (string) $file->primary_screenshot->url : $file->primary_screenshot;}} <img src='{file="$image" extension="downloads_Screenshots"}' alt='{$file->name}' style='max-width: 360px'> </a> <br><br> {{endif}} <br>

So I have been busy for a bit and still running IPB 4.4.10, decided to carve out some time to spin up a test site and see if I would run into any issues with upgrading to IPB 4.6.2. Since I dont have enough space on my webhost to duplicate my site, I spun up a $9 webhosting account at Dreamhost. Which for those that have used Dreamhost, know that they don't run CPANEL. I made a copy of my site over at Dreamhost, and when I went to do the upgrade I got the following message.... We were unable to start a PHP session. You will need to contact your host to adjust your PHP configuration before you can continue. The error reported was: session_start(): Failed t…

CSS question, mostly, probably. I'm struggling with Pages custom formatting for a database field that will receive PDF and/or image uploads (multiple). I'd like any uploaded images to display as thumbnails around 100px or so. The hint text for Custom advises: "If using multiple uploads, $value is an array of File Objects." Sadly I don't have any idea how to make that information actionable 😛 I have tried using one of the predefined label:value badges and that does a nearly-useful thing of providing a colorized field name and wee tiny thumbnails. I'd be willing to live with that if need be but I can't seem to arrive at the correct combination/order of selectors…

Hi, Everything is in the title 🙂 I would like to prioritize the registration option rather than the login fields on the checkout. Because I find this quite confusing for my new customers that are starting to enter their info and realize after that these fields are for returning members. Would like to invert these column on desktop and on mobile. Is it possible ? Thank you for your help ! Livio

As I saw a topic in the developers forum (the only result I found by search) said that if a user have expired license, the application and the plugins still available for upgrades, but right now isn't the case... Why I can't upgrade the application and the plugins which I purchased for separated $ from the IPS store? Can't understand why IPS system related to not IPSs support but when the issues are not related to IPS system, this is unsupported anyway by the team...

Hi folks! I wanted to start a topic to discuss best practices around scaling a website in the cloud. Today my IPB site runs on a VPS that I have full root level access to. All of the system services needed run on the box. (A full LAMP stack along with DNS and email.) I’m looking at building out a new cloud-based design that I’m hoping will allow for Better availability Improved performance Increased security My initial thought for the deployment would be the following: Initially deploy 2 cloud servers to serve as the web tier. (This would be scaled up as needed) These servers would only allow traffic on 80/443 to the inte…

This might be a bit of a long post as I want to include as much details as possible. However, I'd greatly appreciate it if you took the time as I'm completely stumped by this one. I know nginx isn't officially supported by IPS (even though it 100% most certainly should be - it's 2022), which is why this is in community support, but I'd love any ideas from IPS guys on this as well. Setup: I am in the middle of moving our website from AWS Elastic Beanstalk to Digital Ocean running inside a Docker Swarm (maybe soon to be k8s, doesn't matter). On AWS, I am running Apache/PHP 7.3.30 and in DO I'm running Nginx/PHP 8.0.13. Both web servers are now talking to…

Hello Members who follow any thread receive a daily and weekly e-mail send known as Daily Digest emails. If we ban some members from the forum or this thread. Even then they receive the update post of this email bomb forum. In this way they get the updates of this thread even though they do not have it. I don't want them to send these emails. Or if they do, they don't include new forum posts. Tell me, how is that possible? How can an Email wrapper be edited because I don't understand much of the code there ? please reply

My seo expert suggested to me that I should exclude any URL's which contain either " php " or " = " from getting crawled by google. My website contains like 25000 url's and as he said it should not exeed the google crawl budget. From these suggestions I altered the robots.txt file like this. The directory where the the community is located is /members/ Is that correct ? Sorry I have no experience in doint robots.txt files. -------------- User-agent: * Disallow: /members/admin/ Disallow: /members/cache/ Disallow: /members/converge_local/ Disallow: /members/hooks/ Disallow: /members/ips_kernel/ Disallow: /members/retail/ Disallow: /members/…

I was hoping to set up a sort of Knowledge base using the Pages plugin, each page has the potential to contain a lot of information. What I was hoping is to have some way that a table of contents is automatically displayed at the top of the page that people can use to jump to the relevant section. Something like this possible? How would you go about doing it?
