FYI we are able to use the embeds again, I was about to open a ticket with DigitalOcean, maybe someone beat me to the punch?

We actually are on Digital Ocean like many on that thread state. Thanks for the link

That is really unfortunate, we get a lot of topic starters from twitter Embeds, wonder what they are thinking.

When users post links to a tweet we get this message

The link could not be embedded because there is no tweet at that URL.

It was working up  until two days ago. Any ideas?

If you're willing to pay for this sort of feature, it might be worth reaching out to a 3rd party resource developer to see about having them create this sort of functionality for you.  

https://invisioncommunity.com/third-party/providers/

From what has been said by folks on the development team on a different issue is not about trying to raise money for a specific feature...  but instead about juggling a number of other competing interests.  It's more of an issue of time and then making sure the feature fits into the long term plan/strategy for the software.  

I appreciate the reply,I was hoping to have something in their core module so I don't have to worry about it again.

Is there a way to put in a request on the third party that I dont see? Kind of like Fiverr were soliciting requests?

Invision, is there a way to have a community fund effort to get this feature added to cover your costs?

@Matt @Jordan Miller

Maybe a theme that adhered to the device night mode like Windows and Android do for apps and webpages?

I did hide the comment CSS manually...but honestly? Lol

At least take the "this person replied to you but you hid them" Away, most posters don't want to see a poster if they ignored them.

I am not kidding when I say as an owner of a website with One point five MILLION plus posts I know how to a moderate a website. Some topics just can't be let go (Politics, religion etc) by posters and besides that they are model members of the forums. I can't ban everyone which is the only option a no Ignore system leaves me. That sucks. Step up your game Invision.

This is due to a disparity of the actual amount of comments and the comments count, especally if there are posts from a person/persons block in that topic.

The comment count function does not work as expected, as calling the function resyncCommentCounts() without removing the blocked person posts will return the wrong result and count. Hence why there are more pages than comments.

I have PM'd Miss_B regarding this issue, but received no answer of yet. 🙂

Did Miss B ever get back to you?

Invision, we really need this feature. Politics (Trump/Biden, World Russia, Ukraine) are basically killing any community abilities on my site. I feel like half the site is ready to just up and leave so they don't have to deal with it.

I know its possible because I have used vBulletin forums in the early 2000's that had the feature.

I don't understand why this hasn't been done already. Makes no sense.

Any word on this? My members keep bugging me for a True ignore

Miss B, this is the same issue I had.

Essentially when someone hides a user the system thinks the last page of the thread should be there but your plugin is blocking it and it throws this error.

Still getting this error. Let me know thanks

I tried, logged into other browers and same issue. Also getting a "no posts to show" with known ignored users

I purchased and installed this but nothing really changed. We still see the ignored post box. Did something go wrong?

Anyone use this with Mobile usage? How stable and readable is it?

Just to throw this out there, we use a java front end(IM) iRC-Chat and a paid IRC virtual server that costs me only $4 a month with 200 user limit. I also have Mibbit thrown in there now with their own 4$ a month plan which runs with AJAX and connects to my hosted IRC.

You can still install it on other servers. Just need a sympathetic host support. The overhead is minimal.

Since the sphinx uses the forum config in each individual folder I would assume as long as you used the path to it they wouldn't conflict.

It sure is. I have members delighted they can find two letter words and the search results are also very accurate. I would definitely recommend this. I just wish it was tied in to the new content and regular search to further offload search overheard.

But overall a definite :wub:


Curious... since the two systems seem to actually be co-existing (mysql and sphinx) why can't we have a link to both when searching? Its accuracy might help with a certain sites usability (hint hint cough cough... wink wink)

WHooaaaaaaaaa. I am impressed the results pop up so fast, even for terms that are common on my site. Very very nice!

I am getting this error for the command below nonstop. *username is changed. I had to changed the make for sphinx to spx because my tmp directory is a noexec folder.

/home/username/spx/bin/indexer --config /home/username/www/forums/sphinx.conf --all


FATAL: failed to open /var/sphinx/core_search_main.spl: No such file or directory, will not index. Try --rotate option.

I cannot figure out what it is. Searched the sphinx site and it was fruitless.

FIXED

Okay I figured out I had to put the FULL path to the /home/username/var/sphinx

SLOW QUERIES
The slow query log is NOT enabled.
Current long_query_time = 10 sec.
You have 7 out of 936596 that take longer than 10 sec. to complete
Your long_query_time may be too high, I typically set this under 5 sec.

BINARY UPDATE LOG
The binary update log is NOT enabled.
You will not be able to do point in time recovery

Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 2.16 G
Configured Max Global Buffers : 330 M
Configured Max Memory Limit : 2.49 G
Physical Memory : 1.23 G

Max memory limit exceeds 90% of physical memory


QUERY CACHE
Query cache is enabled
Current query_cache_size = 64 M
Current query_cache_used = 4 M
Current query_cache_limit = 8 M
Current Query cache Memory fill ratio = 7.73 %
Current query_cache_min_res_unit = 4 K
Query Cache is 22 % fragmented
Run "FLUSH QUERY CACHE" periodically to defragment the query cache memory
If you have many small queries lower 'query_cache_min_res_unit' to reduce fragmentation.
Your query_cache_size seems to be too high.
Perhaps you can use these resources elsewhere
MySQL won't cache query results that are larger than query_cache_limit in size



JOINS
Current join_buffer_size = 8.00 M
You have had 12 queries where a join could not use an index properly
join_buffer_size >= 4 M
This is not advised
You should enable "log-queries-not-using-indexes"
Then look for non indexed joins in the slow query log.



TEMP TABLES
Current max_heap_table_size = 64 M
Current tmp_table_size = 63 M
Of 12174 temp tables, 26% were created on disk
Perhaps you should increase your tmp_table_size and/or max_heap_table_size
to reduce the number of disk-based temporary tables
Note! BLOB and TEXT columns are not allow in memory tables.
If you are using these columns raising these values might not impact your
ratio of on disk temp tables.


TABLE LOCKING
Current Lock Wait ratio = 1 : 894
You may benefit from selective use of InnoDB.
If you have long running SELECT's against MyISAM tables and perform
frequent updates consider setting 'low_priority_updates=1'
If you have a high concurrency of inserts on Dynamic row-length tables
consider setting 'concurrent_insert=2'.

That is your bb code. Did you change anything in there recently?
