Suggestions: Editor tables and creating a registration form
That looks to be possible as well. https://zapier.com/apps/google-sheets/integrations/invision-community Click on the swap link and you can see the triggers for feeding data from IPB into Google.

Suggestions: Editor tables and creating a registration form
I believe if you have info posted into a Google sheet you could use Zapier to get the info posted into the community as a short term solution.

Youtube embed not working on chrome
Works fine for me on both Chrome mobile and from my laptop.
-
email blocked
It’s possible the user has a workflow that is either reporting the messages as spam or unsubscribing. If it is happening with ONLY one user and multiple addresses… it’s something the user is doing.

Invision Community 5.0.6 Released
I believe it only runs that task to check for updates every so often. Like every few days.

Require preset Prefix be chosen when creating a topic in certain boards
Have you considered using tags for this instead?

Endless loop/recurring errors when entering certain forums and topics here on this site
Works fine for me on my iPhone and my iPad. In fact I was able to toss a reply in that topic without issues. Can browse the forum as well.

Theme editor bug?
Testing a reply. (Someone linked this post saying they are seeing an endless loop on it.)

OOPS! I deleted a thread... Can I recover it?
This depends on how you've configured your settings. ACP > System > Settings > Posting If whatever time frame you have specified has not passed, you'll find it in the ModCP under "Deleted Content".

Can’t remove Who’s Online block
By any chance are you using Cloudflare? I’ve seen this get caught up in CF caching before and was wondering if that might be the culprit.

Admin cannot manage course if he's enrolled
Because an admin is different than a user. If you don't like the behavior, feel free to make a suggestion that it be changed in the feedback forum. Given this it is working as intended currently, there is not much more that can be done.

Admin cannot manage course if he's enrolled
I would suggest using a different browser and login as a normal user for the course instead of trying to mix end user/admin.

What happens after a thread is deleted?
This is the manual solution to recounting the items. There is no way to have this done automatically. If you would like to see that sort of functionality in the future, you should suggest it in the feedback forum.

What happens after a thread is deleted?
I don't think this is possible in the default software. It would require some sort of customization as far as I'm aware of. Marc is typing, so he can confirm if I'm crazy. :)

What happens after a thread is deleted?
Nothing unless you run a rebuild of the post count or rebuild achievements, etc.

Invision Community 5.0.0 Released
The biggest change is if you let your license expire for more than X time it can’t be renewed anymore and needs to be bought again. This is to stop those that might say wait 3 years to renew and expect to keep the same price. The software is meant to be a subscription renewed regularly not at random intervals whenever someone decides they want to.

Invision Community 5.0.0 Released
You're not accounting for things such as SSL setup, or setting up the CDN, configuration of mail delivery and a bunch of other things that are required as part of the process. That also does not include the time to test or handle DNS setup, etc. But that's the value of having IPS handle everything... you don't have to worry about all of that. That cost you're paying covers them doing all of the things that need done. And the size itself of the database itself does not really change the time it takes. The database import time is basically wall time, but the majority of tasks are things that have to be done regardless if the site has 1 post or 1 billion posts.

Invision Community 5.0.0 Released
As someone who has done a migration to cloud, I know first hand the time and effort is much more than “15 minutes” of work. All in on migration day itself was around 4-5 hours of work by Marc and the planning part was another 2-3 hours with Olivia. Any migration fee is not a profit center by any means. At the end of the day, you have to look at the TCO of the service including the migration costs. If it’s not worth it for you, stay self hosted. IPS has committed to having that option for v5. I found the service to be well worth it overall.

Will Courses ever be available to self-hosted?
How about for 210 EUR? You don't need the business level package to access courses. The enhanced courses and lessons package is available with the "Team" level package. That's almost 60% less than you're quoting. :) If that's still too much, there is the "Creator Pro" which includes the basic version of courses for 136 EUR a month. So there are absolutely cheaper ways of getting access to Courses for less than 500 EUR a month. But again, if you're simply saying you want a $5 marketplace app, this is not likely to happen.

Contact Us / Support Options
This code looks like someone ATTEMPTING to use SQL injections through account registrations. It looks like they're trying to register the usernames 1=1 and a few other basic attack vectors that would allow execution of unintended SQL commands. These don't work in Invision Community and is not a valid attack vector. Honestly this looks like a script kiddie who does not know what the scripts actually do or how to use them.

Invision Community 5.0.4 Releases
I’m going to get @Olivia Clark a new whip for Christmas this year. She clearly needs it with all the efforts to keep everyone in line and on time!

Log in Issues
If specific users are having login issues, try having them clear their cache/cookies. That’s caught a few folks. :)

This looks like what happened here:

Unable to register
Check the logs in the ACP for Spam Defense. If the user had a bad reputation score and your settings are set to block those, this could explain what is going on.
