    jackflash got a reaction from FanClub Mike in Upgrade from 4.2.4 to 4.7.15 Today - Went Flawless and Smooth!   
    Just a shout out to Team Invision:
    We upgraded a site running 4.2.4 (how old is that?) today to the current version of 4.7.15 and it went really smooth.  The site has about 20,000 members (not sure how many topics), but the upgrade didn't take long at all. 😍
    We have two big sites running 4.3.6, which we're going to upgrade this week too!

    What are you even talking about?  IPS IS a software company, which makes e-commerce software; however, doesn't use it to power its own store?  How is this supposed to inspire confidence in their products?
    The gallery app hasn't been substantially updated in 5-years - at this point, they should NOT even be charging for it.

    You need to edit your theme. 

    ACP > Appearance > Customization > Themes
    Pick your theme.  Choose the option to edit HTML and then find/edit the globalTemplate.

    You should ask the author directly, only he will know that 
    We have an updated version of the old PHP & TXT Widget, but that won't come to the Marketplace in the near future.

    jackflash reacted to CoffeeCake in Upgrading to 4.6.3 screwed up my forum!   
    Fixed your typo.
    1. Have a test copy of your production environment. What does that mean?
    Same version of OS, same version of PHP, same version of web server, same version of MySQL, same extensions, same configurations, different hostname, behind a firewall or otherwise secured. Not "kind of the same," or "almost the same," or "completely different." Same plugins, extensions, themes, languages, configuration for IPS Ensure things that interact with the outside world (payments processors, e-mail configurations, APIs, etc.) are pointed to corresponding test environments as well. You don't want real payments being processed or real e-mails being sent out from your test environment that affect your members. 2. Make changes in your test environment and document your changes carefully, noting the exact steps you took.
    3. Test!
    4. Have an issue in test? Investigate and open a ticket.
    5. No issues, follow the same steps you documented in step 2 in your production environment.
    If you're doing it any other way, you're gonna have a bad time.

    jackflash reacted to Emaxo in Make gallery thumbnails JPEG   
    I have a huge gallery and by uploading only high resolution pngs the thumbnails even if scaled take up a lot of space and obviously they are slow to load, having the jpg format would be a great compromise
  15. Agree
    jackflash reacted to Emaxo in Make gallery thumbnails JPEG   
    As the title suggests, in my gallery I upload high resolution PNG images, I want the thumbnails to be compressed jpeg instead of png. Where do I set this?
  16. Agree
    jackflash reacted to opentype in Make gallery thumbnails JPEG   
    I would want this as a site-wide feature (for user content). A 5 MB PNG screenshot would usually just be 100 KB as JPG.

    I'm conscious of the fact this is a freebie so don't have any expectations beyond the original ban filter check idea, which still works great for anyone interested in this plugin.

    Well I finally gave this a go and I couldn't get it to work. I kept getting a 401 error when testing the connection and their plug-in was saying I was trying to use OAuth instead of OAuth2 in IPS. I also tried the Custom option instead of the Invision option in the WP plug-in, in case.
    I was following Option B IPS as the server, but I think in fairness it was very likely my fault because I was working on a WP staging site for a client which currently requires a PW to log into as yet so I think that was affecting the redirect. I even tried disabling Cloudflare on it in case.
    BTW the guidance seems to be somewhat outdated, screenshots, some typos, no mention of installing a htaccess etc, so I reported to let them know there's been some changes.
    Sorry I couldn't confirm for you, I will definitely be using it when the WP site launches and I think it will work.

    IPS has done Virtually nothing to the gallery in almost four years.  It's perfect as is 😉

    Hi @jackflash
    It sounds like you need to go with option B in that Help Guide you linked to. IPS designed it to work either way, you choose which end you want the credential server to be.

    My grandmother spoke at least European 12 languages.  During our conversations, she would often pause before telling me something and explaining that I wouldn't understand a certain proverb or joke because it was from x-culture.

    I don't miss the confused reaction but I do miss the sad reaction. We are living in a tumultuous time right now with a global pandemic, and more. You don't always have the words to express that you are feeling for that person's difficult time and seeing a bunch of empty "I'm so sorry"'s in a thread I think is just as damning as no one replying at all to someone's rough time. The sad reaction gave people a means to offer support, show that they read the post without replying with an empty platitude that means even less than a supportive reaction.
