Michael Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 The announcement mentioned this: I don't see where in my Client Center this is located, is it just not ready yet?The Spam Monitoring Service will be available in IP.Board 3.0.2 and is already being tested here on the IPS company forums. Once you have IP.Board 3.0.2, simply login to the IPS client area and activate a special key used for the service and put that key on your IP.Board AdminCP.

Josh Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Make sure your license has a url attached, you can't create a key otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark H. Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I don't know if this is related, or I've gone blind! I now have my Spam Monitoring key, but the place where you can change the registered board URL seems to have been (re?)-moved. :blink: I thought it was on the same page where the Spam Key info is now located?

Mark Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 If you need to change your license URL you'll have to contact account assistance. Really, you should never need to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful when you say "never". ;) I needed to change mine recently due to a new business venture, and Domain, that emerged after I signed up (with an older and now-less-used Domain).

Michael Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yeah, it does come up at times, but it's not like you'd need to be changing it every week or something, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yes, sorry, my point was it was something most people will never need to do, and if you ever do need to, it would only ever be once or twice. If the option to do it was public, then it could possibly be abused by people trying to have multiple boards on one license or what have you. It takes only a few clicks for someone to do it through a ticket, and allows us to make sure people are getting rid of the old installation before it's changed to the new location.

riven3d Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I still see that option on my licenses to enter the board url, im guessing this was something only changed on the Standard license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H. Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Fair enough! Perhaps a note should be added to the Client Area saying as much? Most everyone is used to it being there and will wonder where it went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Guess that answers my ticket where I'm mentioning that I cannot find it. Ticket #592743, where I can see it on one package but not another. :lol: I still think it should be there, but perhaps with a history of previously used URL's and when it was changed. That way if someone is changing it frequently, it can be reviewed to make sure they're not running it on more than one location.

TheSonic Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I don't like the idea not to change the URL myself, exspecially because i move URL often because of converting (just right now, should be finished soon :) ). But my luck: most of the testing is done so ATM i should be fine. I respect piracy and take it serious myself - perhaps there is a better way...sometimes. (so i always runned the number of licenses i bought - even if it was for non-public testing. as stated above, i take it serious) I am unable to finde my license key. What shoul i put in the license-area in my ACP? I added the spammonitoring-key succesfull, but IPB Registered License Key is empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSonic Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Ok, but it says:DO NOT REMOVE OR EDIT THIS KEY UNLESS YOU'RE SURE OF WHAT YOU'RE DOING! ...that sounds dangerous. And:To get your key, log into your client center and click on'Invision Power Board' under 'Your Purchases'. ...but it's not there. So i would suggest to 1. remove this from the ACP in IPB if it's not important or unused or 2. tell users where they get the key It may be a little bit confusing for new users :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 It's an old setting that just hasn't been removed. We talked about it, but have also talked about bringing it back. Not sure what we'll do with that setting just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
