This update fixed the problem on my forum where the TOS footer was being shown to guests even after they had accepted the TOS. Thank you!

Marc, is there a way to make custom fields show in threads viewed on a mobile device?

I'd just do one of the two things that you said: Create a new group which has the necessary restrictions for problematic members, or just ban them. I started running forums about 25 years ago. I learned early-on that it only takes one bad apple to poison the well. Sometimes getting rid of those people is the best thing you can do for your community.

I can confirm that this is the version of PHP that I am running on my server which experienced the same problem. I am pretty sure, however, that I was running on this same version of PHP for quite a while before the site inaccessible problem occurred. My community JUST went inaccessible about 24 hours ago, but I hadn't upgraded PHP any more recently than a few months ago.

Marc, you're a life saver. This is the second time in a month that you've fixed a downed community for me. Thank you!!

Thanks @Marc Stridgen. This would have been the last thing I would have thought to check. I disabled "zlib.output_compression" via my WHM control panel and this immediately allowed my community pages to load. Can you help me understand what went wrong here?

Sometime in the past hour, my community became completely unavailable. Whenever I try to access it via a desktop browser, I see absolutely nothing on screen. From MS Edge on my iPhone I see: "ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED" I've tried restarting httpd and mysqld. I've never seen this problem before. HELP!

Hey Marc - thank you!!! Is this something that I could easily do in the future if I run into this again?

This is critical for me at the moment. My community is down after an attempted move of files back to local storage from Amazon S3. Everything was running fine prior to me telling the forum software to move files back to local storage from S3. The error that I am getting is "Illegal offset type in isset or empty" I cannot access the community or the Admin control panel. I've tried manually copying all of my files back to local storage to no avail. The files copied fine but I am still not able to get into the forum. I've also tried restoring from a backup of the forum database taken a few hours prior to moving TO S3 storage, which was also prior to trying to move some of the files BACK FROM S3 storage. This didn't work either. HELP!!!! 😞

@Marc Stridgen just a gentle nudge on this as the guide is still out of date. 🙂

Thanks! I am behind the times. 🙂

This still very much needs to be a thing. @bfarber, any word on when we might see this? I have a fairly large community which sees some "seasonal" membership driven by political events. When those people lose interest or the world changes, they stop visiting. I try to cull them out due to inactivity, but sometimes I get hit with a spam complaint because one of them was too lazy to unsubscribe the right way. I'd like to make this a lot easier for them by including the list-unsubscribe tag in the email header so that GMail and other clients would give them a one-click unsubscribe option.

Just sharing my review. This add-on is just awesome. @Jon Erickson, thank you for releasing this!

"Free" is a very misleading term when it comes to social media platforms. Users of social media voluntarily become the product in exchange for being able to use the "free" things that social media companies make available to them. I would rather pay Invision for the continued evolution of IPBoard, and pay extra for premium features that go above and beyond what the basic platform provides, than have Invision incorporate Facebook-esque marketing algorithms into the software and monetize my community's members for Invision's gain.

Their new album, Straight Outta JSON, is lit.
