Are there any experts out here for hire that can help take my board to the next level? Not even sure if this is the right place, but I'm considering having my word press site redesigned but I was wondering whether using Invision to integrat the posts to the front page is a better option? I also need a lot of help setting things up again like ranks and such. If interested or have ideas, please get in touch with me via PM. Thanks, Tony

Hello! I am using IPS Brave Theme v4.6.0 and IPS v4.6.5.1 When I go to edit the Theme to the Events tab where we can set the Holiday/Event and effects such as falling confetti, I am curious about the "Halloween" setting. It seems to do nothing that we can tell. Are we missing something here? What is this supposed to do? We had thought it would be apparent, but maybe we have to actually add our own themed items to takeover when this is set? Any help would be appreciated - just looking for direction and clarity of what this is. Thanks!

Hi guys! I'm in the process of moving my IPS community to a shiny new VPS. I was about to start the move today, but in the last minute, when I asked the hosting company which MySQL version they support (to ensure it will work with IPS 4.6), they told me that they have MariaDB 10.1. They say, this is the same as MySQL 5.6. However, I never heard of MariaDB before. I did a bit of research, but I'm still a bit confused. Is it safe and ok to use IPS with MariaDB 10.1? Any cons, problems or challenges I can expect? Any comments on this? I have IPS 4.3.3 now on my old server and planning to upgrade to latest IPS 4.6 version as soon as I move to the new VPS. …

Good Morning, Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this.. But, it appears this is the only category I have access to/can post in. Every other category is telling me I need to sign in to use this function or do not have access.. despite being an active Invision Community member/customer for years. I have a few questions.. I am wanting to move from Self Hosted (my current web host sucks) and move to the Hosted (Invision Community). I do not fully understand the page impressions metric. Is the page impressions count per day? per month? per year?- before it resets? If I have a boost of traffic for say 72 hours that goes over m…

This most recent upgrade has done something with where the moderation controls live in the ACP. I can't locate them and neither can my senior volunteer staff. We have been all through ACP and all that seems to remain are the spots where you can identify for the user how they get notified that they are having posts approved when they are on moderation. I'm talking about the check boxes for whether they get an email or a PM. I can still control whether or not they have status updates I can still control whether or not they have access to their PM box. But I do not have any thing that allows me to put them on forum posting moderation. Where did it go? It's possible that…

Hi guys, I'm still with IPS 4.3.3 and finally planning to upgrade soon to the latest version. I'm using a dedicated server. And I try to clean a bit stuff on the server before doing the upgrade. And I noticed something weird. That is why I need your help guys! I noticed that the uploads/logs folder on the server is 24GB large! I have no idea why. It has 2700+ files. And many of them are 25+ MB each. Here it is a list of the files generated today and yesterday: Today 2021_10_08_javascript.php - 53KB 2021_10_08_uncaught_exception.php - 28MB ! 2021_10_08_dispatcher.php - 2kb Yesterday 2021_10_07_uncaught_exception.php - 14MB 2021_10_07_topic…

We purchased the Illuminate theme because we thought it offered a feature to allow categorizing topics but looks like it just categorizes forums? My goal is to designate pinned topics in their own box at the top of the page with a different color bar or background then current topics following below. We tried a subforum but the topics are hidden from view until the subforum is opened. We want the pinned topics to be visible from the forum page . . . Anyone know if illuminate will do this? If not, is there any suggestions?

Hi there, Someone tried to upload a malicious file through a profile status, referenced here, as well (but it can be found in many other places as well) https://www.volexity.com/blog/2018/11/08/active-exploitation-of-newly-patched-coldfusion-vulnerability-cve-2018-15961/ It got me wondering about the security of the platform in terms of these types of attacks. Should I be worried? What are the best security practices to prevent these? Kind regards upload.php

Has any developer here did any work (plugin / app) for feeding IPS customer data to Facebook Ads through FB Conversion API? Due to iOS changes FB Ads are less productive as before and offering an implementation guide for the same. Hoping someone here can help solve this new problem. Thanks in advance.

Sorry if this is in the wrong area, I can't post a topic anywhere else. The Change Post Author plugin only works on the default theme in 4.6, has anyone managed to get this to work with third-party themes? Is there something we can change in the theme to support it? Thanks.

This happens only with the browser (in my case Safari 15.0) I used for the installation. only on the computer I used for the installation The error is gone for one page call after deleting the cache but occurs again after the first reload or an any other URL of this domain (including non-Invision pages) Any idea where to start to…

Forums/email were working fine, I must have done some sort of system update and now getting a lot of Email Error Logs Everytime a followed post gets saved, it takes 20s+ seconds for the save to complete, so I've disabled all the email alerts and it is fast again. Are there any common areas to check? (dedicated host/linux)

Hello, In a Docker environment with a container for php, another for nginx redis etc, I can not configure cron jobs ... I use cron from the host server (not in a container) : * * * * * docker exec -it php /bin/ash -c "/usr/local/bin/php -d memory_limit=-1 -d max_execution_time=0 /webstack/itomori/htdocs/www/applications/core/interface/task/task.php my_ips_task_key" When I run the command manually, it works, but not via crontab. I can not find anything in the logs too. Someone would have any idea ? ( My PHP container always has the name "php" =>container_name: php )

I'm making edits in my community to reduce disk size on the server, removing junk and editing the image upload max sizes. But wounding what's a good size. At the moment, for most members, I have 2MB max image size that they can upload and for upgraded and staff accounts 5MB max upload size. Other sites that I'm a member on you can upload almost 10MB images size, and they are just gaming related images LOL Long run, if images are 2MB each and you have members uploading 500 a day, that tends to add up in total size. I have large storage anyway, but that's not the point. So far my site is 6GB in total and my weekly backup does 20GB max

I admin can see it, but no one else, and have updated the area, tried to find a master switch, but it won't show, for anyone else, member or not, and also won't show in three browsers including FF. All l can think of is an update nobbled it? Also gone through the dashboard, but cannot find any reference, help. I have also added text but that won't show either, ( usually have an amazon graphic, which is loaded onto the forum server, with a link).

I've noticed that for both of my Invision sites (my test installation and production sites), every once in a while I find that a couple of images have been deleted from their folders. They're just gone, and I have no idea why. And it always seems to be the same two images: 1) The default Guest avatar .PNG (the one you see in the "Who's Online" list), and the default blog zig-zag pattern. Both of these images are located in a set_resources folder in the uploads directory, but that's the only correlation. No other images in any set_resources folder are ever touched as far as I can tell. I used to have this problem with the Invision Community banner on the adminCP login …

https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/suite-applications/commerce/providing-support/ Is it possible to use Commerce as a ticket system without tying it to a purchase? If yes, is it also possible to allow non-registered users to submit tickets? I use a third-party ticket system now but would like to maintain fewer systems. I don't get many tickets, but the ones I get often are from advertisers who are often not forum members, or members who are having issues logging in. Thanks
