Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) About This File This plugin will allow admins to change a member joined date in profiles (front-end and ACP). Only admins with no restriction to edit members profile on ACP can change member joined date in front-end Edited January 14, 2019 by Adriano Faria
Sovereign Grace Singles Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Running into an error. The reason I need to change the join date is because an old account was merged into the new account after my board's creation. Seems the plugin doesn't like the fact that I'm trying to create a join date before the board's creation. I need the join date to be 08/15/2014.

I was counting the seconds until someone fall in that situation: The oldest date allowed will be the forum installation date (board_start in conf_global.php) This is not an error. It just doesn’t make sense allow you to change to a date BEFORE the date the board was installed. Do you have FTP access to make a change in conf_global.php? If so, tell me date you want to set as the board installation then you will change and you will be able to change the date of this member. Would it be 08/15/2014 the board was installed?

Yes, 08/15/2014. I am able to FTP and make changes to the conf_global.php file. My site was created in 2014 however we migrated to IPS last April. Edited January 14, 2019 by Christforums
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2019 Author Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) Ok, so download and open conf_global.php and find board_start on it. You will see a 10 digits number. Change that sequence of numbers to 1407974400 and then save and upload the file. Now you’re able to change the member joined date to 08/15/2014.

Worked as described. My profile now displays my original account creation date before our IPS migration! https://www.christforums.com/profile/1-william/ Adriano Faria 1
Jaymez Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) will this change a member's content post dates too? Edited January 14, 2019 by Jaymez AlexJ 1
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2019 Author Posted January 14, 2019 No. As per title, joined date. Jaymez 1
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2019 Author Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) Give me a few minutes. I will remove that date restriction. 👍 It's better than let people edit the file and mess with something. Edited January 14, 2019 by Adriano Faria DanielZibik 1
Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2019 Author Posted January 14, 2019 Done. You can enter any past date now... it is not tied to board start date anymore.

I just purchased this for my forum, but I'm not using version 4.5 yet (I'm on 4.4). I tried to select the latest version from the change log (the only one that appeared was from December 1, 2019) and tried downloading it, and apparently it wasn't found. Could I get a copy of the 4.4 version?

Did something change that ties it to the board's start date again? This was working for the longest time, but I noticed at some point it was moved back from 4/26/2012 to the start date of the forum (in 2019). When I tried to change it back, it gave me this error:
Adriano Faria Posted May 4, 2023 Author Posted May 4, 2023 This plugin has only 2 versions so far and in both it is limited to board creation date. I sent you a message back in 2020 and probably this specific version didn't have it but the official has.
Pleeb Posted May 27, 2023 Posted May 27, 2023 Yes you did.... it's been a long 3 years 😅 Thanks again.
Adriano Faria Posted May 27, 2023 Author Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) I will release a new version with a setting so the admin will be able to choose how want it to work. 👍 Edited May 27, 2023 by Adriano Faria Pleeb 1

Adriano Faria Posted June 6, 2023 Author Posted June 6, 2023 What's New in Version 1.1.0 Add a setting to restrict the date to the board start date. Plugin converted to an application due to an IPS request.
