    Error Upgrading?

    by Mascot Insider

    Hello, So I wanted to go ahead and begin upgrading my Community to Version 5 to try out the new features. I'm Self Hosted and uploaded all the Files via FTP and went to /Admin/Upgrade but it just says I have nothing to upgrade to and shows Invision Community 4 Upgrader. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

    Some problems in BETA 8

    When entering the forum, the text goes beyond the frame When translating the text, it says it's saved, but after refreshing the page, it goes back to its original place. After refreshing the page, the forum cache also updated.

    Feedback: Thumbnails for widgets

    by opentype

    I appreciate the various layout options and the inclusion of more images in the 5.x widgets, but it seems the new widgets don’t use thumbnails even if they are available. Example: Here is a Record Feed widget which shows the images in a size of just 30×30 pixels, yet it loads the full size record images, which might be 5000 pixels wide each. 😱 Please add a condition to use the thumbnail when available.

    Character List in profile BETA IPS 5

    by Calise563

    Hello, previously, on older versions of ips, I simply added code to profile.php to provide data about game characters belonging to a given account on the forum. Then I displayed them in the profileactivity template. I have a question about the IPS 5 beta. How should I display the characters? How to pass data to profile activity or how to edit it? Maybe there is another option to do this type of thing? Thank you very much for all your help, I count on your help! Regards try { $select = \IPS\Db::i()->select( '*', 'srv_characters', 'char_gid='.$this->member->member_id); foreach( $select as $key => $id ) { $characters…

    Custom Themes

    by Daddy

    I'm not fully understanding the new theme editor. How do I modify the entire page without having to inject my code with pre-defined placements? My design is completely custom. I do not like IPS design personally. Am I missing where to access the raw template code?

    [Feature Request] Improved Link Filtering System for SEO Optimization Adding Temp Backlinks-Dofollow

    by 403 - Forbiddeen

    The link filtering system is impressive, but it has some flaws that I believe can negatively impact SEO. When adding a link to a website, the entire site allows that link to be followed by search engine systems. Someone with some knowledge of IPS (now IC) can exploit this and, even subtly, create harmful backlinks for specific sites (e.g., Site X or Y). This approach can lead to negative consequences. My suggestion is to implement a system similar to WordPress, where I can decide which links should be followed. For example, I could allow follow links in specific content, such as articles in Pages, Blogs, or specific forums. Additionally, it would be valuabl…

    Upgrade Fail - IPS 4.7.19 to 5.0.0 Beta 7 1 2

    by 403 - Forbiddeen

    First of all, I UNDERSTAND that I am using the beta version and installed in the Test url, after all the purpose is not to use it in the main forum. I upgraded from version 4.7.19 to version 5.0.0 Beta 7, although it appears to have finished, I can access the admincp but the website itself keeps giving a 500 error, how can I solve this? I've tried clearing the cache, but to no avail.

    Database Navigation widget. Intended functionality?

    by opentype

    What’s the intended functionality for the new Database Navigation widget regarding opening the sub-menus? I am getting an inconsistent behaviour that doesn’t feel right. For a database with only one category, I see all entries always. That’s fine. But for databases with multiple categories, things get stuck in weird ways. Sometimes all sub-menus remain closed after clicking a link in the category tree. Sometimes a certain sub-menu remains open no matter what page in the category tree I am on. My expectation would be that the active sub-menu would always remain open, but I am not getting that behaviour at all.

    Changing the location of followers in profile in beta 7 is not good

    by EliasM

    In the beta 7 version, some changes were made in the profile, including the good and the bad, such as changing the followers box I demand that the followers box be returned as it was on the mobile phone, as it looks ugly like this when you have a lot of followers

    We're in heaven with Beta 7!

    by Matt

    Beta 7 is here, and I'm digging deep into my Bingo Lingo today! As always, check out our release notes for a full list of this week's fixes. Update: If you notice Pages article comments have vanished, do one of two things: Edit each database and under display add a value for comments per page. Wait until after 3pm GMT and apply the patch. 😇

    Will setting a default index in V5 pages work if the software's installed in root/www instead of a subfolder without anything additional? Thanks

    Full-size video?

    by opentype

    How to create video embeds (YouTube, Vimeo) that fill the entire column? I can scale the entire video up and down, but after a certain max width or height, only the container scales and the video stays rather small. I see the same both on my site and on the IPS preview installation.

    Permissions: Custom profile field as criteria for forum access

    by salvi

    In v5 beta6, Is there a way to set a custom profile field as the automated criteria/permission for access to a forum? For example, if a member selects AZ from a custom profile field called State, can an AZ Forum and/or Club be set to only allow members from AZ to have access?

    Access Theme Templates

    I'm probably missing something obvious (running a low-grade fever here), but how do I access theme templates in v5? I wish to investigate adding a button in the mobile footer menu. Thanks.
