Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Smokey-Rev Posted November 11, 2022 Posted November 11, 2022 I haven't used IPS since 3.1, when does the statistics block update the statistics to match the actual number? I noticed it wasn't going up for me until I edited the block again manually, am I missing something?
Marc Posted November 11, 2022 Posted November 11, 2022 If you edit blocks like that manually, it will then never change, as you have manually said "I want it to say this". You would need to recreate the block and it would then count itself. Bearing in mind that blocks are cached, so would only update periodically throughout the day, based on block cache in System->Settings->Advanced Configuration
Smokey-Rev Posted November 11, 2022 Author Posted November 11, 2022 Where would the block caching method be in that page? Is it the Data Storage? Should I set it to Redis?
Marc Posted November 11, 2022 Posted November 11, 2022 Its on the first tab at the bottom under performance. If you are asking if you should use redis, the answer is probably no.Â
Smokey-Rev Posted November 11, 2022 Author Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) Ah okay. So I deleted the block, saved, Re-added the Member Stats & Forum Stats blocks, and haven't hit the "Edit" button on them, so i'm hoping it's good to go now... It's set to 5 minutes (default), so I'm assuming it'll work. I do have another issue in the admin CP i keep getting a notification about dangerous PHP extensions, i'll make a new topic about that.

Marc Posted November 11, 2022 Posted November 11, 2022 No problem 🙂 Hopefully that should sort the issue

Marc Posted November 11, 2022 Posted November 11, 2022 Please check this again tomorrow, as stats themselves would only update once per day Smokey-Rev 1
